Obtaining a list of memory address ranges allocated to processes

2006-12-06 Thread Stephen Torri
I am trying to create a custom ELF and Windows PE loader for the purpose
of security research. I am having a difficult time finding how to
allocate memory for a binary at the desired address in memory
(especially if its non-relocatable). I would like to see why I cannot
get memory allocated at the exact address request in the binary headers.
Is there a program or system call that allows me to see a list of memory
address ranges allocated to the running processes on a system?

Re: OOPS on 2.4.4-ac4

2001-05-14 Thread Stephen Torri

The nvidia driver has been fine for me up to 2.4.2-ac20. I am going to
update to 2.4.4-ac8 today. In regards to the module the source code is
available from nvidia for inspection. The library that they want you to
use with it is binary only. The library should be source code as well but
the powers that be have said otherwise.

I will keep tabs on the release for kernel oops as well. I am using XFree
4.0.3 with NVIDIA-0.9-769

Broke. Tried it with only ACPI enabled and no options selected. Broke.

Re: 2.4.3-ac3 XIRCOM_CB only working as module

2001-04-13 Thread Stephen Torri

I have built this as a module due to the RedHat system I use (to be
consistent). I found that the xircom_cb driver works fine as a module
except for when using dhcp for dynamic ip address. If I set the ip address
of the network card to a static ip number it work fine. Yet if I choose to
use the dhcp to get my ip address packets leave, as seen via tcpdump, but
it doesn't get an address. I watched tcpdump at the dhcp server and saw
the packets come in from the laptop and the responses go out. The laptop
either is ignoring the message coming from the dhcp server or some other
bizarre reason.

I cannot say if I noticed anything about the yenta_socket driver. If I
could get dhcp to work fine I would be willing to give it a go.

ACPI:system description tables not found.

2001-03-08 Thread Stephen Torri

I am using kernel-2.4.2-ac12 (will try ac14). The motherboard is a
Supermicro P6DBU. (I will need to check the board when I get home to
confirm). I get the messages below when the system starts:

acpi: system description tables not found

The manufacturer says that there is support for acpi. So I willing to beat
it around a bit to get the tables found. Any ideas where to start?

Motherboard is a P6DBE. IDE drives. Just found the site and confirmed it.

The line "lba32" is for what? I have to ask this because I have never seen
it in an example of a lilo.conf file before.

Also you put "disk=/dev/hde and bios=0x80" to inform lilo that there was a
disk there and its bios address is 0x80. Is this right?

If I would follow your example then I would put:

lba32
disk=/dev/hdf
   bios=0x82

Linux booting from HD on Promise Ultra ATA 100

2001-01-12 Thread Stephen Torri

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

I'm having difficulty booting from the Promise controller. Here is the
story:

I originally had my system setup with all drives working off the
mainsboard IDE controller (Intel 82371AB PIIX4). The setup was

/dev/hda - ST310232A, FwRev=3.09  (Seagate)
/dev/hdb - 927308, FwRev=RA530JNO (Maxtor) * Linux installed here
/dev/hdc - CD-532E-B (Teach CDROM)
/dev/hdd - CD-RW4224A (Smart & Friendly CDRW).

Well I got an Promise Ultra ATA 100 controller card. Went over to
linux-ide.org and get the patches for kernel-2.2.16. Took a pristine
kernel-2.2.16 and patched it and then compiled it on a RedHat 6.2
system. I then made a bootdisk with this new kernel.

So then I installed the drives in this order:

(Mainsboard controller)
primary master - ST310232A (Seagate)
primary slave - none
secondary master - CDROM
secondary slave - CDRW

(Promise controller)
primary slave - IBM-DLTA-307045 (IBM)
primary slave - 927308 (Maxtor) * Linux install here
secondary master - none
secondary slave - none

The system boots if I use the bootdisk and tell it "linux
root=/dev/hdf3".  I edited the lilo.conf and the fstab for the new
setup. I can log in and do my business with my the linux partition but
when I tried to use lilo to setup the MBR on the first disk (mainsboard) I
got this:

warning: BIOS Drive 0x82 may not be accessible.

Is there some settings that I need to give to the lilo to boot?

Transmission errors for Xircom RealPort2 10/100 Cardbus NIC.

2000-12-22 Thread Stephen Torri

I am having a real interesting time with the Xircom card and
kernel-2.2.16. All transmission packets from the NIC are being flagged for
errors while all received packets are fine. The card is in a Twinhead
P88TE Cardbus PCMCIA slot. Eradicate errors like total packet loss, 1
packet out of 4 returning fine with ping, and others are causing me to be
concerned. The module I am using is tulip_cb.

I got these details from ifconfig.

Transmission errors for Xircom RealPort2 10/100 Cardbus NIC.

2000-12-22 Thread Stephen Torri

I am having a real interesting time with the Xircom card and
kernel-2.2.16. All transmission packets from the NIC are being flagged for
errors while all received packets are fine. The card is in a Twinhead
P88TE Cardbus PCMCIA slot. Eradicate errors like total packet loss, 1
packet out of 4 returning fine with ping, and others are causing me to be
concerned. The module I am using is tulip_cb.

I got these details from ifconfig.

eth0  Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:10:A4:B9:6C:D2  
  inet addr:10.0.0.4  Bcast:10.0.0.255  Mask:255.255.255.0

  TX packets:0 errors:983 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:983
  collisions:0 txqueuelen:100

I checked the file /proc/net/dev

That reports no errors.

Re: Dell 5000e APM (fixed!)

2000-11-28 Thread Stephen Torri

On the topic of APM, I have a supermicro P6DBE motherboard (SMP).
APM does not work because its not safe with SMP systems. What can I do to
get power management for this motherboard?

hdparm settings: Can they be permanent?

2000-10-04 Thread Stephen Torri

It was suggested to me that the way to make hdparm settings permanent was
to create a script to change the settings on startup. Is this the best
choice?
