10 @author Jonathan 'Wolf' Rentzsch: <http://rentzsch.com>
12 This package, coded in C to the Mach API, allows you to override ("patch")
13 program- and system-supplied functions at runtime. You can fully replace
14 functions with your implementations, or merely head- or tail-patch the
15 original implementations.
17 Use it by #include'ing mach_override.h from your .c, .m or .mm file(s).
19 @todo Discontinue use of Carbon's MakeDataExecutable() and
20 CompareAndSwap() calls and start using the Mach equivalents, if they
21 exist. If they don't, write them and roll them in. That way, this
22 code will be pure Mach, which will make it easier to use everywhere.
23 Update: MakeDataExecutable() has been replaced by
24 msync(MS_INVALIDATE). There is an OSCompareAndSwap in libkern, but
25 I'm currently unsure if I can link against it. May have to roll in
26 my own version...
27 @todo Stop using an entire 4K high-allocated VM page per 28-byte escape
28 branch island. Done right, this will dramatically speed up escape
29 island allocations when they number over 250. Then again, if you're
30 overriding more than 250 functions, maybe speed isn't your main
31 concern...
32 @todo Add detection of: b, bl, bla, bc, bcl, bcla, bcctrl, bclrl
33 first-instructions. Initially, we should refuse to override
34 functions beginning with these instructions. Eventually, we should
35 dynamically rewrite them to make them position-independent.
36 @todo Write mach_unoverride(), which would remove an override placed on a
37 function. Must be multiple-override aware, which means an almost
38 complete rewrite under the covers, because the target address can't
39 be spread across two load instructions like it is now since it will
40 need to be atomically updatable.
41 @todo Add non-rentry variants of overrides to test_mach_override.
