FergusInLondon / snoopy.c
Created March 28, 2017 07:02
snoopy.c - process_vm_readv() demonstration.
/**
* snoopy.c - Snoop on another tasks memory.
* Fergus In London <[email protected]>
*
* This is a pretty basic demo of the process_vm_readv syscall, a syscall which
* provides a nicer interface than ptrace for accessing memory used by another
* task.
*
* To play with simply use `ps` to get a PID for the process you'd like to snoop
* on, and `pmap` for the relevant memory address.

LD_PRELOAD Code Injection and Hooking
/* filesnooper.c - Fergus In London <[email protected]>
*
* Similar to snoopy.c, wrote to scratch an itch and demonstrate how LD_PRELOAD
* can be used for injecting code and/or hooking/wrapping around function calls.
*
* This is actually a good example, because if you try and use it with different
* ways of writing files, you'll see that to actually do this effectively you'd
* need to examine the target binary with strace, and potentially implement
* signatures from other libraries. (i.e a binary calling fprintf() may not be
* be effected by this.)

Simple array shuffler example.
/**
* shuffle(array[]) - Shuffles an array via a simplistic
* algo, not too dissimilar to Fisher-Yates.
*
* Ignore the -ahem- "clever" variable swapping one-liner,
* that's all it does.
*
* @param array
* @return array

Really simple events/listeners registry in C
/**
* Simple little event registry built around the worlds most simplistic
* linked list implementation. Allows you to register a function (void())
* against a integer value, and provides a mechanism for triggering the
* associated functions for an integer.

* Not a great deal of use beyond those fun little weekend Arduino type
* projects.

* Simple little function for calculating rolling averages, both simple and
