This commits adds a basic infrastructure to support Address Space Randomization (ASR). In a nutshell, using the already imported ASR LLVM pass, multiple versions can be generated for the same system service, each with a randomized, different address space layout. Combined with the magic instrumentation for state transfer, a system service can be live updated into another ASR-randomized version at runtime, thus providing live rerandomization. Since MINIX3 is not yet capable of running LLVM linker passes, the ASR-randomized service binaries have to be pregenerated during crosscompilation. These pregenerated binaries can then be cycled through at runtime. This patch provides the basic proof-of-concept infrastructure for both these parts. In order to support pregeneration, the clientctl host script has been extended with a "buildasr" command. It is to be used after building the entire system with bitcode and magic support, and will produce a given number of ASR-randomized versions of all system services. These services are placed in /usr/service/asr in the image that is generated as final step by the "buildasr" command. In order to support runtime updating, a new update_asr(8) command has been added to MINIX3. This command attempts to live-update the running system services into their next ASR-randomized versions. For now, this command is not run automatically, and thus must be invoked manually. Technical notes: - For various reasons, magic instrumentation is x86-only for now, and ASR functionality is therefore to be used on x86 only as well. - The ASR-randomized binaries are placed in numbered subdirectories so as not to have to change their actual program names, which are assumed to be static in various places (system.conf, procfs). - The root partition is typically too small to contain all the produced binaries, which is why we introduce /usr/service. There is a symlink from /service/asr to /usr/service/asr for no other reason than to let userland continue to assume that all services are reachable through /service. - The ASR count field (r_asr_count/ASRcount) maintained by RS is not used within RS in any way; it is only passed through procfs to userland in order to allow update_asr(8) to keep track of which version is currently loaded without having to maintain own state. - Ideally, pre-instrumentation linking of a service would remove all its randomized versions. Currently, the user is assumed not to perform ASR instrumentation and then recompile system services without performing ASR instrumentation again, as the randomized binaries included in the image would then be stale. This aspect has to be improved later. - Various other issues are flagged in the comments of the various parts of this patch. Change-Id: I093ad57f31c18305591f64b2d491272288aa0937 |

# $NetBSD: README,v 1.13 2013/08/06 22:33:59 soren Exp $ the scripts should be run from the directory where they reside. makeflist: output the list of files that should be in a distribution, according to the contents of the 'lists' directory. checkflist: check the file list (as internally generated by makeflist) against the tree living in $DESTDIR. (that tree should be made with 'make distribution'.) maketars: make tarballs of the various sets in the distribution, based on the contents of the lists, the tree in $DESTDIR, and put the tarballs in $RELEASEDIR. Note that this script _doesn't_ create the 'secr' distribution, because (for now) it requires manual intervention to get the binaries right... (i'll add another script to create that dist, later.) what's in 'lists': lists describing file sets. There are two sets of lists per file set: machine dependent and machine-independent files. (there's also another file in the 'man' dir, which is used by the 'man' and 'misc' sets, but that's explained later.) There is one machine-independent file, named "mi". There are N machine-dependent files (one per architecture), named "md.${ARCH}". the sets are as follows: base: the base binary set. excludes everything described below. comp: compiler tools. All of the tools relating to C, C++, and FORTRAN (yes, there are two!) that are in the tree. This includes includes, the linker, tool chain, and the .a versions of the libraries. (obviously, base includes ldd, ld.so, and the shared versions. base also includes 'cpp', because that's used by X11.) includes the man pages for all the binaries contained within. Also, includes all library and system call manual pages. debug: Debugging libraries (_g.a/MKDEBUGLIB) and (.debug/MKDEBUG) binaries. etc: /etc, and associated files (/var/cron/tabs, /root, etc.). things that shouldn't be blindly reinstalled on an upgrade. games: the games and their man pages. man: all of the man pages for the system, except those listed elsewhere (e.g. in comp, games, misc, text). Includes machine-dependent man pages for this CPU. misc: share/dict, share/doc, and the machine-dependent man pages for other CPUs which happen to always be installed. modules: stand/${MACHINE}/${OSRELEASE}/modules kernel modules tests: unit, regression, integration and stress tests for the whole system. text: text processing tools. groff and all of its friends. includes man pages for all bins contained within. Each set must contain "./etc/mtree/set.<set name>" within the mi list. Failure to add this will break unprivileged builds.
