Hi folks,
I am working on additional security mechanisms for the dragonfly vkernel
and I want to monitor all in-memory copies (like intel asm "mov" and its
derivates) of a running vproc in order to check if the vproc is allowed
to copy data to the resp. memory segment.
You would have to single-step every instruction. In this case I guess you can
even emulate the CPU and be faster.
Now if you have a way to check whether a process is allowed to perform a
certain memory operation, then can't you simply use the page table and let the
CPU do the checking job?
cheers
