kernel shims in w8

It seems that windows 8 kernel now has some support for driver shims.
Exported functions to provide this functionality are:
  • KseRegisterShim
  • KseRegisterShimEx
  • KseUnregisterShim
Shim descriptor has structure like this one:

struct shim_descriptor
{
  DWORD Size;
  GUID *guid;
  wchar_t *Name;
  PVOID unk1;
  PVOID HookDriverUntargeted; // func ptr
  PVOID HookDriverTargeted;   // func ptr
  PVOID HookTab;              // ptr to hooks descriptor table
};


KseRegisterShim called twice in ntoskrnl.exe with two shim descriptors:

Win7VersionLieShim
GUID: 3E28B2D1-E633-408C-8E9B-2AFA6F47FCC3
Hooks RtlGetVersion & PsGetVersion functions

KseDsShim
GUID: BC04AB45-EA7E-4A11-A7BB-977615F4CAAE
Hooks:
  • IoCreateDevice
  • PoRequestPowerIrp
  • ExAllocatePoolWithTag
  • ExFreePoolWithTag
  • ExAllocatePool
  • ExFreePool
Sims apply in MiDriverLoadSucceeded function (by IAT hooking in KsepApplyShimsToDriver):

CoRegisterChannelHook in w8 consumer preview

Declared in ole32.dll as forwarded export to COMBASE.CoRegisterChannelHook
But combase.dll does not have such exported name, he-he
So wincheck cannot find some COM-related structures on w8 consumer preview. On w8 dev preview all work fine

binary tree for multithread access

Task
I need some binary tree structure for concurrent access from multiple threads where some threads do searching and some other perform insert/delete operations. This structure must work both in kernel and user mode

Solutions
Lets add some sync primitive to each tree node -  it is going to be SRWLock in user mode and EX_PUSH_LOCK in kernel mode. It`s clear that reader can acquire shared lock while writer will use exclusive one. Bcs order of locks always have to be the same - we need tree structure with top-down rebalancing (I hope this is right assumption). So lets see which kinds of trees allow such operations
  1. weight-balanced tree. Drawbacks: need to use floating point, so in kernel mode we must care about FPU context saving/restoring
  2. classical B-tree. I think there may be a problem with granularity - when node contains a big number of keys and we need to lock it exclusively - all search operations will be blocked from this node till the lowest level of its children
  3. red-black tree. Looks like it is a good candidate but sadly I cannot find implementation in plain C with top-down rebalancing :-(
Do I miss something important ?

    new TRACE_INFORMATION_CLASS in w8

    The official documentation for WmiQueryTraceInformation says that TRACE_INFORMATION_CLASS has only 10 values. Although build date of this documentation is 6/11/2012 in reality there are some more values
    • 0xB - return address of EtwpDiskIoNotifyRoutines. TraceInformationLength eq sizeof(PVOID)
    • 0xC - copy content of EtwpAllNotifyRoutines. TraceInformationLength eq 0xD * sizeof(PVOID) (on w8 consumer preview size must be 0xE * sizeof(PVOID))
    • 0xD - return address of EtwpFltIoNotifyRoutines. TraceInformationLength eq sizeof(PVOID)
    • 0xE - return address of EtwpTraceHypervisorStackwalk function. TraceInformationLength eq sizeof(PVOID)
    • 0xF - copy address of EtwpWdfNotifyRoutines. TraceInformationLength eq sizeof(PVOID)

    How to find IopRootDeviceNode

    using static analysis only ?
    Lets see

    xp/w2k3/vista
    From exported function IoPnPDeliverServicePowerNotification:

         lea     eax, [esp+38h+Object]
         push    eax             ; Object
         call    _KeWaitForSingleObject@20

         cmp     [esp+28h+var_20], ebx
         jge     short loc_64963A
         lea     eax, [esp+28h+var_18]
         push    eax
         push    [esp+2Ch+var_1C]
         mov     eax, _IopRootDeviceNode
         push    dword ptr [eax+0B8h]
         push    [ebp+arg_0]
         call    _PnpSetPowerVetoEvent@24


    KeWaitForSingleObject called only one time in whole code graph of this function

    Sublime Text 2

    Installed today this nice editor. One minor problem is that it does not have support of Asm from the box. Google search gives link to x86-assembly-textmate-bundle but it seems that it was made only for 32bit with GAS syntax. So I made patch for it - add more registers, instructions and some keywords from yasm/nasm
    Result:
    Patch

    !alpc /lpc

    First - this command don`t work on vista:

    lkd> !object \Sessions\1\Windows\SbApiPort
    Object: 89c40ed0  Type: (82b6fed0) ALPC Port
        ObjectHeader: 89c40eb8 (old version)
        HandleCount: 1  PointerCount: 4
        Directory Object: 8fe397e0  Name: SbApiPort
    lkd> !alpc /lpc 89c40ed0
    Error querying field CommunicationInfo of structure nt!_ALPC_PORT at 89c40ed0
    Port @89c40ed0 is not a connection port.


    Second - I think it just don`t work

    windows internals 6th edition

    page 271:
    Compile-time hotpatching support works by adding 7 additional bytes to the beginning of each function—4 are considered part of the end of the previous function, and 2 are part of the function prolog—that is, the function’s beginning.
    4 + 2 = 6. I double checked with calc.exe, he-he

    page 590:
    In the next chapter, we’ll look at the I/O system.

    wincheck rc8.17

    Download mirror
    Changelog:
    • Add initial support of windows 8 release preview. pdb for 32bit win32k.sys is still unavailable so all win32k related checks do not work. Also I am sure that this version is very far from full support of w8 release preview (although it is much better than rc8.16 which just crashes on w8 rp)
    • Add -acpi option to check some ACPI tables
    • Fixed Etw structures for wow64 apps
