Where can i get source code of IoOutput8 () - linux

I'm looking for the code of IoOutput8 () function ,which is used to write a value to the specified I/O port.
Can anybody help knowing the right location of this functions source code??

In Linux, there is no IoOutput8() function. You should use void iowrite8(u8 value, void *addr); followed by the wmb(); (write memory barrier). For more details, see §9.4.2 Accessing I/O Memory of LDD Book (also see §9.4.3. Ports as I/O Memory for ioport_map/ioport_unmap).
As for the source code for IoOutput8(), you should probably get it from the same place you got that function. The only place I could find it is Phoenix IO Access Library, if that is something you are using, you should ask Phoenix company for the source code if they haven't provided it already.

How NVIC function working NVIC_EnableIRQ(CAN1_RX0_IRQn);

so my friend asked me to write my own implementation for above function NVIC_Enable_IRQ(CAN1_RX0_IRQn); to enable can reception interrupt.
initially i thought its impossible to right such implementation ..
could anybody please explain me like the register associated with NVIC where i directly go and change the required value ,so that there is no need of implementation of above function and CAN reception interrupt is enabled.
this line NVIC_EnableIRQ(CAN1_RX0_IRQn); i copied from example code given in stm32f example code of CAN
Everything that starts with NVIC_ is part of the CMSIS library supplied by ARM to set up the ARM core (which is independent of the MCU manufacturer). You don't really want to mess with them, so you'd better use them.
In the CMSIS core_cm4.h (for a cortex M4), you can find:
__STATIC_INLINE void NVIC_EnableIRQ(IRQn_Type IRQn)
{
NVIC->ISER[(((uint32_t)(int32_t)IRQn) >> 5UL)] = (uint32_t)(1UL << (((uint32_t)(int32_t)IRQn) & 0x1FUL));
}
Now, if you don't want to call NVIC_EnableIRQ or if you don't want to use the CMSIS, well good luck, you need to read the ARM core documentation to check which addresses you need to modify. The ARM core documentation can be found on the ARM or Keil website. For example, you might find those links useful for the Cortex M4:

Knot Resolver: How to observe and modify a resolved answer at the right time

Goal
I would like to stitch up a GNU GPL licensed Knot Resolver module either in C or in CGO that would examine the client's query and the corresponding resolved answer with the goal of querying an external API offering a knowledge base of malware infected hostnames and ip addresses (e.g. GNU AGPL v3 IntelMQ).
If there is a match with the resolved A's (AAAA's) IP address it is to be logged, likewise a match with the queried hostname should be logged or (optionally) it could result in sending the client an IP address of a sinkhole instead of the resolved one.
Means
I studied the layers and I came to the conclusion that the phase I'm interested in is consume. I don't want to affect the resolution process, I just want to step in at the last moment and check the results and possibly modify them.
I ventured to register the a consume function
with
static knot_layer_api_t _layer = {
.consume = &consume,
};
but I'm not sure it is the right place to do the deed.
Furthermore, I also looked into module hints.c, especially its query method
and module stats.c for its _to_wire function usage.
Question(s)
Phase (Layer?)
When is the right time to step in and read/write the answer to the query before it's send to the client? Am I at the right spot in consume layer?
Answer sections
If the following attempt at getting the resolved IP address gives me the Name Server's address:
char addr_str[INET6_ADDRSTRLEN];
memset(addr_str, 0, sizeof(addr_str));
const struct sockaddr *src = &(req->answer->sections);
inet_ntop(qry->ns.addr[0].ip.sa_family, kr_inaddr(src), addr_str, sizeof(addr_str));
DEBUG_MSG(NULL, "ADDR: %s\n", addr_str);
how do I get the resolved (A, AAAA) IP address for the query's hostname? I would like to iterate over A/AAAA IP addresses and CNAMEs in the answer and look at the IP addresses they were resolved to.
Modifying the answer
If the module setting demands it, I would like to be able to "ditch" the resolved answer and provide a new one comprising an A record pointed at a sinkhole.
How do I prepare the record so as it could be translated from char* to Knot's wire format and the proper structure in the right context at the right phase?
I guess it might go along functions such as knot_rrset_init and knot_rrset_add_rdata, but I wasn't able to arrive at any successful result.
THX for pointers and suggestions.
If you want to step in the last moment when the response is finalised but not yet sent to the requestor, the right place is finish. You can do it in consume as well, but you'll be overwriting responses from authoritative servers here, not the assembled response to requestor (which means DNSSEC validator is likely to stop your rewritten answers).
Disclaimer: Go interface is rough and requires a lot of CGO code to access internal structures. You'd be probably better suited by a LuaJIT module, there is another module doing something similar that you may take as an example, it also has wrappers for creating records from text etc. If you still want to do it, that's awesome and improvements to Go interface are welcome, read on.
What you need to do is roughly this (as CGO).
That will walk you through RR sets in the packet (C.knot_rrset_t),
where you can match type (rr.type) and contents (rr.rdata).
Contents is stored in DNS wire format, for address records it is the address in network byte order, e.g. {0x7f, 0, 0, 1}.
You will have to compare that to address/subnet you're looking for - example in C code.
When you find a match, you want to clear the whole packet and insert sinkhole record (you cannot selectively remove records, because the packet is append-only for performance reasons). This is relatively easy as there is a helper for that. Here's code in LuaJIT from policy module, you'd have to rewrite it in Go, using all functions mentioned above and using A/AAAA sinkhole record instead of SOA. Good luck!

How can I read the routing table information from Kernel space?

I would like to be able to read the routing table from kernel space...
In user space, this information is readable in /proc/net/route, but I don't know how to read the same information from kernel space..
I don't want to modify, only read..
any ideas?
To fetch the routing table, you would need to send a message of type RTM_GETROUTE to the kernel using a socket of the AF_NETLINK family — this is the rtnetlink(7) interface.
For convenience, rather than sending messages over a socket, you can use the libnetlink(3) library, and call int rtnl_wilddump_request(struct rtnl_handle *rth, int family, RTM_GETROUTE).
For an even simpler cross-platform abstraction, you could use the libdnet library, which has a function int route_get(route_t *r, struct route_entry *entry).
You may find out where in kernel source code tree this file is created in '/proc' pseoudo filesystem by searching the "route" keyword or "create_proc_... smth" Take a look at how such files are created for your kernel in source.
I suspect it's located somewhere in net/ipv4/route.c

Testing whether memory is accessible in Linux

Given an untrusted memory address, is there a way in Linux to test whether it points to valid, accessible memory?
For example, in mach you can use vm_read_overwrite() to attempt to copy data from the specified location. If the address is invalid or inaccessible, it will return an error code rather than crashing the process.
write from that memory (into /dev/null, for example (EDIT: with /dev/null it might not work as expected, use a pipe)), and you'll receive EFAULT error if the address is unaccessible.
I have no idea how to test for writable memory without destroying its content if it is writable.
This a typical case of TOCTOU - you check at some point that the memory is writeable, then later on you try to write to it, and somehow (e.g. because the application deallocated it), the memory is no longer accessible.
There is only one valid way to actually do this, and that is, trap the fault you get from writing to it when you actually need to use it.
Of course, you can use tricks to try to figure out if the memory "may be writeable", but there is no way you can actually ensure it is writeable.
You may want to explain slightly more what you are actually trying to do, and maybe we can have some better ideas if you are more specific.
You can try msync:
int page_size = getpagesize();
void *aligned = (void *)((uintptr_t)p & ~(page_size - 1));
if (msync(aligned, page_size, MS_ASYNC) == -1 && errno == ENOMEM) {
// Non-accessibe
}
But this function may be slow and should not be used in performance critical circumstance.

linux module call functions which is in /proc/kallsyms but not exported

I have a project about linux kernel. We can't compile linux kernel and we have to call the not exported functions but this function can be found in /proc/kallsyms.(We can get the address of the function). But we don't know the specific method to call the function.
Would you please help us to solve the problem?
Thank you very much.
Assuming it is a function in the kernel itself and not a module all you have to do is:
int (funcp *)(int param1, int param2, ...) = FUNCTION_ADDRESS;
funcp(param1, param2, ...);
If it is a module things are a little bit more difficult since you need to record the offset of the function from the start of the kernel module load address, grab the load address from the kernel at runtime and compute the function address...
