result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
160+
Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
161+
work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
162+
other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
163+
has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
164+
165+
9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing

# syzkaller - linux syscall fuzzer
2+
3+
```syzkaller``` is a distributed, unsupervised, coverage-guided Linux syscall fuzzer.
4+
It is meant to be used with [KASAN](https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/kasan.txt) (```CONFIG_KASAN=y```),
5+
[KTSAN](https://github.com/google/ktsan) (```CONFIG_KTSAN=y```),
6+
or [KUBSAN] (http://developerblog.redhat.com/2014/10/16/gcc-undefined-behavior-sanitizer-ubsan/) ([patch](https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/10/20/181)).
7+
8+
Project [mailing list](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/syzkaller).
9+
10+
This is work-in-progress, some things may not work yet.
11+
12+
## Usage
13+
14+
Coverage support is not upstreamed yet, so you need to apply [this patch](https://codereview.appspot.com/267910043)
15+
to gcc (tested on revision 227353) and [this patch](https://github.com/dvyukov/linux/commit/3506cff7ed260596a783c3766a852869cd913a5e)
16+
to kernel. Then build kernel with ```CONFIG_KASAN``` or ```CONFIG_KTSAN``` and the new ```CONFIG_SANCOV```.
17+
18+
Then, build ```syzkaller/master```, ```syzkaller/manager```, ```syzkaller/fuzzer``` and ```syzkaller/executor```.
19+
The latter is build using ```make``` in the dir, the rest are build using ```go build```.
20+
21+
Then, write manager config based on ```manager/example.cfg```.
22+
23+
Then, start the master process as:
24+
25+
```$ ./master -workdir=./workdir -addr=myhost.com:48342 -http=myhost.com:29855```
26+
27+
and start the manager process as:
28+
29+
```$ ./manager -config my.cfg```
30+
31+
The manager process will wind up qemu virtual machines and start fuzzing in them.
32+
If you open the HTTP address (in our case ```http://myhost.com:29855```),
33+
you will see how corpus collection progresses.
34+
35+
## Process Structure
36+
37+
Master process is responsible for persistent corpus and crash storage.
38+
It communicates with one or more manager processes via RPC.
39+
40+
Manager process starts, monitors and restarts several VM instances (support for
41+
physical machines is not implemented yet), and starts fuzzer process inside of the VMs.
42+
Manager process also serves as a persistent proxy between fuzzer processes and the master process.
43+
As opposed to fuzzer processes, it runs on a host with stable kernel which does not
44+
experience white-noise fuzzer load.
45+
46+
Fuzzer process runs inside of presumably unstable VMs (or physical machines under test).
47+
Fuzzer guides fuzzing process itself (input generation, mutation, minimization, etc)
48+
and sends inputs that trigger new coverage back to the manager process via RPC.
49+
It also starts transient executor processes.
50+
51+
Executor process executes a single input (a sequence of syscalls).
52+
It accepts the program to execute from fuzzer process and sends results back.
53+
It is designed to be as simple as possible (to not interfere with fuzzing process),
54+
written in C++, compiled as static binary and uses shared memory for communication.
55+
56+
## Syscall description
57+
58+
syzkaller uses declarative description of syscalls to generate, mutate, minimize,
59+
serialize and deserialize programs (sequences of syscalls). Below you can see
60+
(hopefully self-explanatory) excerpt from the description:
61+
62+
```
63+
open(file filename, flags flags[open_flags], mode flags[open_mode]) fd
64+
read(fd fd, buf buffer[out], count len[buf]) len[buf]
65+
close(fd fd)
66+
open_mode = S_IRUSR, S_IWUSR, S_IXUSR, S_IRGRP, S_IWGRP, S_IXGRP, S_IROTH, S_IWOTH, S_IXOTH
67+
```
68+
69+
The description is contained in ```syzkaller/sys/sys.txt``` file.
