devmem读写物理内存和devkmem读取内核虚拟内存

关键词：/dev/mem、/dev/kmem、mmap、__va、__pa、remap_pfn_range等等。

 

在日常工作中常有直接操作寄存器或者某一物理地址的需求，busybox中提供了devmem。通过它可以读写物理内存。

它的实现借助mmap和/dev/mem，通过mmap将/dev/mem物理地址映射到用户空间，devmem就可以像操作虚拟地址一样进行读写。

hexdump同样也可以类似devmem的功能。

如果需要在用户空间获取内核某个变量值，可以使用devkmem通过/dev/kmem进行。

下面分别介绍这三种工具。

1. devmem操作物理地址，它是如何做到的？

用户空间是无法直接操作物理地址的；但是日常工作中常需要对某一物理地址进行读写，尤其是寄存器。

devmem可以实现这个功能。那么devmem做了什么？/dev/mem在内核中优势如何实现的呢？

1.1 devmem工具使用

devmem使用介绍如下：

BusyBox v1.27.2 (2019-04-16 17:00:28 CST) multi-call binary.

Usage: devmem ADDRESS [WIDTH [VALUE]]

Read/write from physical address

        ADDRESS Address to act upon
        WIDTH   Width (8/16/...)
        VALUE   Data to be written

devmem的能力有限，只能处理最大64字节的数目。

下面向0xfc20700这个地址写入32位数据0x12345678：

devmem 0xfc20700 32 0x12345678

然后从0xfc20700读取进行验证。

devmem 0xfc20700 32
0x12345678

1.2 devmem工具分析

从下面的代码可知，devmem解析参数，然后将地址转换成页面对齐的地址。mmap将/dev/mem的输入地址偏移的页面映射到用户空间，然后读取数值。

int devmem_main(int argc, char **argv) MAIN_EXTERNALLY_VISIBLE;
int devmem_main(int argc UNUSED_PARAM, char **argv)
{
    void *map_base, *virt_addr;
    uint64_t read_result;
    uint64_t writeval = writeval; /* for compiler */
    off_t target;
    unsigned page_size, mapped_size, offset_in_page;
    int fd;
    unsigned width = 8 * sizeof(int);

    /* ADDRESS */
    if (!argv[1])
        bb_show_usage();
    errno = 0;
    target = bb_strtoull(argv[1], NULL, 0); /* allows hex, oct etc */---------------第一个参数是地址

    /* WIDTH */
    if (argv[2]) {------------------------------------------------------------------第二个参数，在写的情况下，需要知道写数据的位宽。
        if (isdigit(argv[2][0]) || argv[2][1])
            width = xatou(argv[2]);
        else {
            static const char bhwl[] ALIGN1 = "bhwl";
            static const uint8_t sizes[] ALIGN1 = {
                8 * sizeof(char),
                8 * sizeof(short),
                8 * sizeof(int),
                8 * sizeof(long),
                0 /* bad */
            };
            width = strchrnul(bhwl, (argv[2][0] | 0x20)) - bhwl;
            width = sizes[width];
        }
        /* VALUE */
        if (argv[3])-----------------------------------------------------------------第三个参数，待写入数值。
            writeval = bb_strtoull(argv[3], NULL, 0);
    } else { /* argv[2] == NULL */
        /* make argv[3] to be a valid thing to fetch */
        argv--;
    }
    if (errno)
        bb_show_usage(); /* one of bb_strtouXX failed */

    fd = xopen("/dev/mem", argv[3] ? (O_RDWR | O_SYNC) : (O_RDONLY | O_SYNC));-------根据第三个参数确定是以只读形式打开，还是以读写形式打开。/dev/mem代表整个内核空间。
    mapped_size = page_size = getpagesize();
    offset_in_page = (unsigned)target & (page_size - 1);-----------------------------对地址进行也对齐。
    if (offset_in_page + width > page_size) {----------------------------------------如果跨页，则mapped_size变成两个页面。
        /* This access spans pages.
         * Must map two pages to make it possible: */
        mapped_size *= 2;
    }
    map_base = mmap(NULL,
            mapped_size,
            argv[3] ? (PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE) : PROT_READ,
            MAP_SHARED,
            fd,
            target & ~(off_t)(page_size - 1));---------------------------------------将/dev/mem文件的从target的页对齐偏移开始，映射mapped_size块大小内存。映射结果是map_base。
    if (map_base == MAP_FAILED)
        bb_perror_msg_and_die("mmap");

//    printf("Memory mapped at address %p.\n", map_base);

    virt_addr = (char*)map_base + offset_in_page;

    if (!argv[3]) {
        switch (width) {
        case 8:
            read_result = *(volatile uint8_t*)virt_addr;
            break;
        case 16:
            read_result = *(volatile uint16_t*)virt_addr;
            break;
        case 32:
            read_result = *(volatile uint32_t*)virt_addr;
            break;
        case 64:
            read_result = *(volatile uint64_t*)virt_addr;
            break;
        default:
            bb_error_msg_and_die("bad width");
        }
//        printf("Value at address 0x%"OFF_FMT"X (%p): 0x%llX\n",
//            target, virt_addr,
//            (unsigned long long)read_result);
        /* Zero-padded output shows the width of access just done */
        printf("0x%0*llX\n", (width >> 2), (unsigned long long)read_result);------------读取数据并打印。
    } else {
        switch (width) {
        case 8:
            *(volatile uint8_t*)virt_addr = writeval;
//            read_result = *(volatile uint8_t*)virt_addr;
            break;
        case 16:
            *(volatile uint16_t*)virt_addr = writeval;
//            read_result = *(volatile uint16_t*)virt_addr;
            break;
        case 32:
            *(volatile uint32_t*)virt_addr = writeval;
//            read_result = *(volatile uint32_t*)virt_addr;
            break;
        case 64:
            *(volatile uint64_t*)virt_addr = writeval;
//            read_result = *(volatile uint64_t*)virt_addr;
            break;
        default:
            bb_error_msg_and_die("bad width");
        }
//        printf("Written 0x%llX; readback 0x%llX\n",
//                (unsigned long long)writeval,
//                (unsigned long long)read_result);
    }

    if (ENABLE_FEATURE_CLEAN_UP) {
        if (munmap(map_base, mapped_size) == -1)
            bb_perror_msg_and_die("munmap");
        close(fd);
    }

    return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

1.3 /dev/mem是如何实现物理地址读写？

/dev/mem在chr_dev_init()中创建，需要创建的节点在devlist[]中。

static const struct memdev {
    const char *name;
    umode_t mode;
    const struct file_operations *fops;
    fmode_t fmode;
} devlist[] = {
#ifdef CONFIG_DEVMEM
     [1] = { "mem", 0, &mem_fops, FMODE_UNSIGNED_OFFSET },
#endif
#ifdef CONFIG_DEVKMEM
     [2] = { "kmem", 0, &kmem_fops, FMODE_UNSIGNED_OFFSET },
#endif...
};

其中mem_fops对应/dev/mem节点的操作函数。

static const struct file_operations __maybe_unused mem_fops = {
    .llseek        = memory_lseek,
    .read        = read_mem,---------------------------------将/dev/mem内存读出。
    .write        = write_mem,-------------------------------直接对/dev/mem进行读写。
    .mmap        = mmap_mem,---------------------------------对/dev/mem进行mmap映射。
    .open        = open_mem,---------------------------------主要检查权限是否满足CAP_SYS_RAWIO。
#ifndef CONFIG_MMU
    .get_unmapped_area = get_unmapped_area_mem,
    .mmap_capabilities = memory_mmap_capabilities,
#endif
};

static int open_port(struct inode *inode, struct file *filp)
{
    return capable(CAP_SYS_RAWIO) ? 0 : -EPERM;
}

#define open_mem    open_port

1.3.1 mmap

mmap_mem()是mmap()内存映射的执行者，通过将/dev/mem对应的物理地址映射到用户空间虚拟地址。

static int mmap_mem(struct file *file, struct vm_area_struct *vma)
{
    size_t size = vma->vm_end - vma->vm_start;
    phys_addr_t offset = (phys_addr_t)vma->vm_pgoff << PAGE_SHIFT;

    /* It's illegal to wrap around the end of the physical address space. */
    if (offset + (phys_addr_t)size - 1 < offset)-----------------------------------检查是否存在地址回绕情况，即offset+size超出size_t范围。
        return -EINVAL;

    if (!valid_mmap_phys_addr_range(vma->vm_pgoff, size))return -EINVAL;-----------检查vm_pgoff+size是否超出物理地址限制。

    if (!private_mapping_ok(vma))
        return -ENOSYS;

    if (!range_is_allowed(vma->vm_pgoff, size))
        return -EPERM;

    if (!phys_mem_access_prot_allowed(file, vma->vm_pgoff, size,
                        &vma->vm_page_prot))
        return -EINVAL;

    vma->vm_page_prot = phys_mem_access_prot(file, vma->vm_pgoff,
                         size,
                         vma->vm_page_prot);---------------------------------------将vm_pgoff+size区域的内存标记为uncacheable。

    vma->vm_ops = &mmap_mem_ops;

    /* Remap-pfn-range will mark the range VM_IO */
    if (remap_pfn_range(vma,---------------------------------------------将内核中vma->vm_pgoff对应的size个页面，映射到vma区域，返回的虚拟空间起始地址是vma->vm_start。
                vma->vm_start,
                vma->vm_pgoff,
                size,
                vma->vm_page_prot)) {
        return -EAGAIN;
    }
    return 0;
}

通过/dev/mem映射的内存是非cache的：

static pgprot_t phys_mem_access_prot(struct file *file, unsigned long pfn,
                     unsigned long size, pgprot_t vma_prot)
{
#ifdef pgprot_noncached
    phys_addr_t offset = pfn << PAGE_SHIFT;

    if (uncached_access(file, offset)) {
return pgprot_noncached(vma_prot);-------------------------------将/dev/mem设备映射的页面属性设置为Non-Cached。
    }
#endif
    return vma_prot;
}

 

remap_pfn_range()将一块内核物理连续内存映射到用户空间，虚拟内存有如下属性VM_IO | VM_PFNMAP | VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP，并且页面时Non-Cached。

对所有内存建立页表项，vma的prot变成pteval。

/**
 * remap_pfn_range - remap kernel memory to userspace
 * @vma: user vma to map to
 * @addr: target user address to start at
 * @pfn: physical address of kernel memory
 * @size: size of map area
 * @prot: page protection flags for this mapping
 *
 *  Note: this is only safe if the mm semaphore is held when called.
 */
int remap_pfn_range(struct vm_area_struct *vma, unsigned long addr,
            unsigned long pfn, unsigned long size, pgprot_t prot)
{
    pgd_t *pgd;
    unsigned long next;
    unsigned long end = addr + PAGE_ALIGN(size);
    struct mm_struct *mm = vma->vm_mm;
    unsigned long remap_pfn = pfn;
    int err;

    /*
     * Physically remapped pages are special. Tell the
     * rest of the world about it:

     */
    if (is_cow_mapping(vma->vm_flags)) {
        if (addr != vma->vm_start || end != vma->vm_end)
            return -EINVAL;
        vma->vm_pgoff = pfn;
    }

    err = track_pfn_remap(vma, &prot, remap_pfn, addr, PAGE_ALIGN(size));
    if (err)
        return -EINVAL;

    vma->vm_flags |= VM_IO | VM_PFNMAP | VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP;

    BUG_ON(addr >= end);
    pfn -= addr >> PAGE_SHIFT;

        next = pgd_addr_end(addr, end);
        err = remap_pud_range(mm, pgd, addr, next,
                pfn + (addr >> PAGE_SHIFT), prot);--------------------逐级创建页表remap_pud_range()->remap_pmd_range()->remap_pte_range()，最终prot变成页表项的pteval一部分。
        if (err)
            break;
    } while (pgd++, addr = next, addr != end);------------------------遍历addr到end之间内存，对所有页面建立页表。

    if (err)
        untrack_pfn(vma, remap_pfn, PAGE_ALIGN(size));

    return err;
}

1.3.2 read和write

下面两个对应read()和write()两个系统调用。

static ssize_t read_mem(struct file *file, char __user *buf,
            size_t count, loff_t *ppos)
{
    phys_addr_t p = *ppos;
    ssize_t read, sz;
    void *ptr;

    if (p != *ppos)
        return 0;

    if (!valid_phys_addr_range(p, count))---------------------------对输入的物理地址+大小进行验证，确保在low_memory范围内。
        return -EFAULT;
    read = 0;
...
    while (count > 0) {
        unsigned long remaining;
        int allowed;

        sz = size_inside_page(p, count);

        allowed = page_is_allowed(p >> PAGE_SHIFT);
        if (!allowed)
            return -EPERM;
        if (allowed == 2) {
            /* Show zeros for restricted memory. */
            remaining = clear_user(buf, sz);
        } else {

            ptr = xlate_dev_mem_ptr(p);-----------------------------将物理地址转换成虚拟地址，不成功则返回-EFAULT。注意这里的地址通过_va进行转换，只有特定区域的地址才可以使用。
            if (!ptr)
                return -EFAULT;

            remaining = copy_to_user(buf, ptr, sz);-----------------将物理地址对应内容拷贝到用户空间。

            unxlate_dev_mem_ptr(p, ptr);
        }

        if (remaining)
            return -EFAULT;

        buf += sz;
        p += sz;
        count -= sz;
        read += sz;
    }

    *ppos += read;
    return read;
}

static ssize_t write_mem(struct file *file, const char __user *buf,
             size_t count, loff_t *ppos)
{
    phys_addr_t p = *ppos;
    ssize_t written, sz;
    unsigned long copied;
    void *ptr;

    if (p != *ppos)
        return -EFBIG;

    if (!valid_phys_addr_range(p, count))---------------------------确保地址在low_memory范围内。
        return -EFAULT;

    written = 0;

#ifdef __ARCH_HAS_NO_PAGE_ZERO_MAPPED
    /* we don't have page 0 mapped on sparc and m68k.. */

        buf += sz;
        p += sz;
        count -= sz;

    while (count > 0) {
        int allowed;

            ptr = xlate_dev_mem_ptr(p);--------------------------------__va()进行物理地址到虚拟地址的转换。
            if (!ptr) {
                if (written)
                    break;
                return -EFAULT;
            }

            copied = copy_from_user(ptr, buf, sz);
            unxlate_dev_mem_ptr(p, ptr);
            if (copied) {
                written += sz - copied;
                if (written)
                    break;
                return -EFAULT;
            }
        }

        buf += sz;

        count -= sz;
        written += sz;
    }

    *ppos += written;
    return written;
}

对比mmap和read()/write()两种方式可知：

• mmap()可以读写的范围更大；read()/write()的范围局限在low_memory。
• mmap()的读写速度更快，操作更方便。

1.4 hexdump使用

devmem一次读写的内容有限，hexdump可以一次dump大量数据。

但是hexdump是通过read()/write()来获取数据，物理地址的范围受到限制。而devmem通过mmap()则没有这些限制。

hexdump -s 0x10000000 -n 256 /dev/mem
10000000 0005 1908 fc11 18ff edf7 03fe e914 020b

2. devkmem读取内核虚拟地址空间数据

某些情况下需要读取内核某个变量的值，这时候可以通过/dev/kmem。

2.1 /dev/kmem

要使用/dev/kmem就需要在内核中打开CONFIG_DEVKMEM，menuconfig路径为：Device Drivers->Character devices->/dev/kmem virtual device support。

static const struct file_operations __maybe_unused kmem_fops = {
    .llseek        = memory_lseek,
    .read        = read_kmem,
    .write        = write_kmem,
    .mmap        = mmap_kmem,
    .open        = open_kmem,
#ifndef CONFIG_MMU
    .get_unmapped_area = get_unmapped_area_mem,
    .mmap_capabilities = memory_mmap_capabilities,
#endif
};

static int mmap_kmem(struct file *file, struct vm_area_struct *vma)
{

read_kmem()和write_kmem()需要对low_memory和high_memory进行区别对待。

对low_memory需要经过xlate_dev_kmem_ptr()后进行读写；对high_memory通过vread()/vwrite()进行读写。

2.2 devkmem

类似于devmem相对于/dev/mem，devkmem通过将/dev/kmem映射到用户空间，然后读取内容。

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
 
#define DEVKMEM         "/dev/kmem"
 
#define PAGE_SIZE       0x1000
#define PAGE_MASK       (~(PAGE_SIZE-1))
 
 
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
    int fd;
    char *mbase;
    char read_buf[10];
    unsigned int varAddr, regAddr;
 
    varAddr = strtoul(argv[1], 0, 16);
     
    unsigned int ptr = varAddr & ~(PAGE_MASK);
 
    fd = open(DEVKMEM, O_RDONLY);
    if (fd == -1) {
        perror("open");
        exit(-1);
    }
 
    mbase = mmap(0,PAGE_SIZE,PROT_READ,MAP_SHARED,fd, (varAddr & PAGE_MASK));
    if (mbase == MAP_FAILED) {
        printf("map failed %s\n",strerror(errno));
    }
     
    printf("varAddr = 0x%X \n", varAddr);
    printf("mapbase = 0x%X \n", (unsigned int)mbase);
    printf("value   = 0x%X \n",*(unsigned int*)(mbase+ptr));
     
    close(fd);
    munmap(mbase,PAGE_SIZE);
 
    return 0;
}

2.3 devkmem使用

由于devkmem需要输入地址，但由于是虚拟地址，完全地址是没有意义的。

需要通过/proc/kallsyms根据符号找到对应的内核虚拟地址，然后再通过devkmem查看其值。

比如想查看sysctl_sched_rt_runtime的值，首先查看其在内核的虚拟地址：

cat /proc/kallsyms | grep sysctl_sched_rt_runtime
808eb544 D sysctl_sched_rt_runtime

然后查看虚拟地址的值：

./devkmem 808eb544
varAddr = 0x808EB544 
mapbase = 0x2ABFB000 
value   = 0xE7EF0 

换算成10进制就是950000.

那么这个值对不对呢？cat /proc/sys/kernel/sched_rt_runtime_us表明结果正确。

 

改进点：

1.直接输入符号，显示所有符号的值。

2.不同输出格式，16进制、10进制等等。
