  • Introduction to X86 Assembly
    CS342 Computer Security Handout # 5 Prof. Lyn Turbak Monday, Oct. 04, 2010 Wellesley College Lab 4: Introduction to x86 Assembly Reading: Hacking, 0x250, 0x270 Overview Today, we continue to cover low-level programming details that are essential for understanding software vulnerabilities like buffer overflow attacks and format string exploits. You will get exposure to the following: • Understanding conventions used by compiler to translate high-level programs to low-level assembly code (in our case, using Gnu C Compiler (gcc) to compile C programs). • The ability to read low-level assembly code (in our case, Intel x86). • Understanding how assembly code instructions are represented as machine code. • Being able to use gdb (the Gnu Debugger) to read the low-level code produced by gcc and understand its execution. In tutorials based on this handout, we will learn about all of the above in the context of some simple examples. Intel x86 Assembly Language Since Intel x86 processors are ubiquitous, it is helpful to know how to read assembly code for these processors. We will use the following terms: byte refers to 8-bit quantities; short word refers to 16-bit quantities; word refers to 32-bit quantities; and long word refers to 64-bit quantities. There are many registers, but we mostly care about the following: • EAX, EBX, ECX, EDX are 32-bit registers used for general storage. • ESI and EDI are 32-bit indexing registers that are sometimes used for general storage. • ESP is the 32-bit register for the stack pointer, which holds the address of the element currently at the top of the stack.

  • ECE 598 – Advanced Operating Systems Lecture 2
    ECE 598 { Advanced Operating Systems Lecture 2 Vince Weaver http://www.eece.maine.edu/~vweaver [email protected] 15 January 2015 Announcements • Update on room situation (shouldn't be locked anymore, but not much chance of getting a better room) 1 Building Linux by Hand • Check out with git or download tarball: git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.x/ • Configure. make config or make menuconfig Also can copy existing .config and run make oldconfig • Compile. 2 make What does make -j 8 do differently? • Make the modules. make modules • sudo make modules install • copy bzImage to boot, update boot loader 3 Building Linux Automated • If in a distro there are other commands to building a package. • For example on Debian make-kpkg --initrd --rootcmd fakeroot kernel image • Then dpkg -i to install; easier to track 4 Overhead (i.e. why not to do it natively on a Pi) • Size { clean git source tree (x86) 1.8GB, compiled with kernel, 2.5GB, compiled kernel with debug features (x86), 12GB!!! Tarball version with compiled kernel (ARM) 1.5GB • Time to compile { minutes (on fast multicore x86 machine) to hours (18 hours or so on Pi) 5 Linux on the Pi • Mainline kernel, bcm2835 tree Missing some features • Raspberry-pi foundation bcm2708 tree More complete, not upstream 6 Compiling { how does it work? • Take C-code • Turn into assembler • Run assembler to make object (machine language files). Final addresses not necessarily put into place • Run linker (which uses linker script) • Makes some sort of executable.

  • An Introduction to Morphos
    An Introduction to MorphOS Updated to include features to version 1.4.5 May 14, 2005 MorphOS 1.4 This presentation gives an overview of MorphOS and the features that are present in the MorphOS 1.4 shipping product. For a fully comprehensive list please see the "Full Features list" which can be found at: www.PegasosPPC.com Why MorphOS? Modern Operating Systems are powerful, flexible and stable tools. For the most part, if you know how to look after them, they do their job reasonably well. But, they are just tools to do a job. They've lost their spark, they're boring. A long time ago computers were fun, it is this background that MorphOS came from and this is what MorphOS is for, making computers fun again. What is MorphOS? MorphOS is a fully featured desktop Operating System for PowerPC CPUs. It is small, highly responsive and has very low hardware requirements. The overall structure of MorphOS is based on a new modern kernel called Quark and a structure divided into a series of "boxes". This system allows different OS APIs to be used along side one another but isolates them so one cannot compromise the other. To make sure there is plenty of software to begin with the majority of development to date has been based on the A- BOX. In the future the more advanced Q-Box shall be added. Compatibility The A-Box is an entire PowerPC native OS layer which includes source and binary compatibility with software for the Commodore A500 / A1200 etc.
