* The 1st prompt to record file changed by processWe-unite2024-07-264-155/+262
| | | | | | | | | | | | To record it, we must listen to open/write and several syscalls, and now I've add open into the 2nd coroutine. In syscall open, what we should do is to judge the permission flag (the 2nd param in the syscall), to find out if it can write to the file. If so, the exit code is its file descriptor, and when write is called, the audit shows only file descriptor but no file name. So the next step is to add things into 3rd coroutine, to make the whole program running again, and find out bugs.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Most important work during this time is to find out solution to the out-of-order bug. Discribe it here in detail: info from audit may be out of order, which means fork may comes after execve, even after exit. What an absurd penomenon to see a process not yet created to work or exit! To deal with this problem, I've tried several ways: - in the 2nd coroutine, when EOE msg comes, if it's a fork/clone event, send it immediately, otherwise wait for some time(such as 100 ms). But after all it delays longer, and has other problems. - the 2nd coroutine doesn't send directly, but record all the finished event id in a slice, and another thread checks once every one second, if there are sth in slice, send corresponding events in the order of event id. But: event that happens first doesn't always has lower id or time, for example, 1 forks 2, then 2 execve, the audit in kernel it self may gets execve before fork(maybe fork makes other settings), which means execve has earlier timestamp and lower event id. The out- of-order problem is not completely resolved. If we then add delays to non-clone event, a more serious problem happens: we must use mutex to lock the slice recording finished event id to prevent crush between send thread and wait thread, but the wait thread can't get the mutex again, because there are to much clone event and frequent send! - So I use no delay but mongodb, when an execve comes, if pid is not recorded, just insert it and wait for the fork. It does works, but some other works is still left to do: - what should i do if 2 forks 3 comes before 1 forks 2? Now I suggest it doesn't happen, but what if? - when execve comes before fork, i recorded it, but if this process has a parent i don't care, delete, or stays there? Also, as mentioned above, I've add EXECVE field in process into db, records all the execve(time, and args) from the same process. Besides, exit_timestamp and exit_code can be caught now, but too many process has no exit info. This is also to be fixed. Now, let's listen to the file changed by process. Don't forget the to-do works listed above!
* Use mongodb, insert process info into itWe-unite2024-07-226-108/+211
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I failed to print the process tree out. While I'm printing the tree, the tree itself gets changed, maybe deleted. What's more, the output show that there are 4 lines with the same ppid and pid, how an absurd result! It may be caused by multi-thread. So, use database instead. Mongodb uses bson(binary json) to store data but not relational database like mysql, which means it's more easy to use.(?) Beside inserting, I've also solved a question that "fork" is called once but returns twice. For instance, pid 1 forked pid 2, in the audit log it's not an event "syscall=clone,ppid=1,pid=2", but actually two events "syscall=clone,exit=0,ppid=0,pid=1" and "syscall=clone,exit= 2,ppid=0,pid=1", which is just what we see in sys_fork in kernel source. To deal with this, when syscall is clone and exit is 0 we just drop it. Left question: To find out the exit code when a process exit/exit_group, and finish the code to record it in the database.
* Depart the whole program into several files.We-unite2024-07-199-0/+650
Put all the src code in only one file is to ugly, so devide it! and mv them into src dir to keep the whole repo clear.
