This supports both empty and normal LP images, including those that span multiple files/devices. Currently, repacked files are semantically equivalent, but not exactly identical. avbroot's data structure for the metadata does not preserve the arbitrary partition ordering of the LP image. Instead, to make the API a bit nicer, it only preserves the relative partition ordering within partition groups. Signed-off-by: Andrew Gunnerson <accounts+github@chiller3.com>
Fuzzing
While avbroot's parsers are all memory-safe, it is still possible for panics or crashes to occur, for example due to excessive memory allocation, integer overflow, or division by zero. Fuzzing helps to identify these issues by randomizing inputs in a way that tries to increase code coverage.
Running the fuzzers
-
Install the cargo honggfuzz commands.
cargo install honggfuzz -
Pick a fuzz target to run. A fuzz target is the name of the source file in
src/bin/without the.rsextension.The list of targets can be queried programmatically with:
cargo read-manifest | jq -r '.targets[].name' -
Run the fuzzer.
cargo hfuzz run <fuzz target>This will run forever until it is manually killed. At the top of the screen, a summary section like the following is shown:
Iterations : 31,243 [31.24k] Mode [1/3] : Feedback Driven Dry Run [2486/4085] Target : hfuzz_target/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/release/bootimage Threads : 8, CPUs: 16, CPU%: 800% [50%/CPU] Speed : 36,126/sec [avg: 31,243] Crashes : 53 [unique: 1, blocklist: 0, verified: 0] Timeouts : 0 [1 sec] Corpus Size : 1,424, max: 24,576 bytes, init: 4,085 files Cov Update : 0 days 00 hrs 00 mins 00 secs ago Coverage : edge: 897/224,621 [0%] pc: 2 cmp: 34,736When a crash occurs, the
Crashescounter will increment and the input data that triggered the crash will be written tohfuzz_workspace/<fuzz target>/*.fuzz. New files are only written for unique crashes. -
If a crash occurs, run the following command to trigger the crash in a debugger.
cargo hfuzz run-debug <fuzz target> \ hfuzz_workspace/<fuzz_target>/<input file>.fuzzThis defaults to using
rust-lldb. To userust-gdbinstead, set theHFUZZ_DEBUGGERenvironment variable torust-gdb.Alternatively, just feed the input file to the appropriate avbroot command directly (eg.
avbroot boot info -i hfuzz_workspace/<fuzz_target>/<input file>.fuzzfor boot images).
