[XenAccess-devel] Linux headers and offsets

[Daniele S. <da...@ya...>]

I suggest including the Linux headers to find the
correct offsets during compilation. In this way, you
don't have to manually compute the offsets, but the
compiler will do the job for you, and this solution is
also portable.
We've developed a set of functions that use XenAccess
to introspect the Linux kernel, for example to
retrieve the list of the running processes, the idt
and the system call table, the list of the running
modules, the list of the open files and also to check
if an interface is set into promiscuous mode, by using
the headers to "cast" the raw memory into the correct
structure.

Here you can find the code:

It's still a work in progress, but I hope that the
idea of including the Linux headers may help you :)
If you have any questions, let me know.
