The GenericExperiment is a standard campaign+experiment pair. It is
derived from the DatabaseCampaign+DatabaseExperiment. Its experiment
endpoints are set on the command line, therefore it can be used to give
users a first impression of FAIL*. Currently it supports different
endpoints:
--trap: Catch all traps that occur and end the experiment
--timeout <N>: kill the experiment after N microseconds
--catch-write-text: detect writes on the text segment
--catch-write-outerspace: detect writes into nirvana
--{ok,fail,detected}-marker: groups of ELF symbols that are used as
execution breakpoints

The DatabaseExperiment is a class a concrete experiment can inherit
from. It handles the communication with the campaign server. Does the
fast forward to the fault location, injects the fault and gives the
result over experiment outcome to the child class.

The variable PROTOBUF_IMPORT_DIRS has to be set in the toplevel
CMakeLists.txt, since the import path has to be available for all .proto
files within all subdirectories. Without this addition, the
GenericExperiment will fail to compile.

This change implements the following:
-DwarfReader now exports the address range of linetable-entries instead of
only the first address
-ElfImporter saves this range alongside the mapping
Change-Id: I7fe6361178f761a8f605a44bb0183c56a236cc95
This change alters DwarfReader and import-trace's ElfImporter so that they use
unsigned int for static address and line numbers instead of signed int.

The inline configuration mechanism did work properly for iterated
invocation of cmake. But since the configuration items were set after
the decision was made whether a tool was build or not, they had only
influence on the second run of cmake.
The experiment configuration is no saved in a config.cmake file, which
populates the CMakeCache.txt before any other CMakeLists.txt is read.

The configuration from weather-monitor was also stripped down to those
values which do not represent the default settings.

The configuration needed to build this experiment is no noted within the

The configure step for libfailbochs_external could be executed parallel
to other build steps, which required the files produced by the configure
step. Therefore a race-condition occurred. By giving the configure step
an explicit target name, more correct dependencies could be modeled
within bochs.cmake.

The import-trace tool supports a memorymap file as argument. Currently the
import tool accepts only decimal values, but the hexadecimal system is more
common to specify a memory address or range. To avoid a manual translation
between hex and dec values the patch extends the import tool to handle both
types according to the prefix of a value.

This change sets the option parser to GNU mode, that is, allows
further option parameters after non-option parameters, e.g.:
dump-trace foo.tc -s
instead of
dump-trace -s foo.tc
As Fail* currently works on GNU platforms only, this behavior is the
one presumably expected from users.

Independent of the protocol specification all integer fields in the
result table are signed. For instance, if I store a kernel IP (e.g.
0xf1....) the value in the database is 0x7fffffff because of the wrong
type.
Therefore, the data fields of the result table should have the same
types as specified in the protocol.

This change fixes the Protobuf->MySQL bridge for strings, which were
corrupted in rare cases, especially with debug builds of the
DatabaseCampaign. String columns in result tables from any campaign
up to this point may contain corrupted data.
The core reason for the corruption was that the TypeBridge_string
bound a temporary (a nameless local variable) to the prepared
statement. This temporary is destroyed before the subsequent call to
mysql_stmt_bind_param(), and the string within can only be referenced
successfully if it has not been overwritten yet. The solution is to
copy the string to a bridge-internal variable.
Although it might seem that TypeBridge_enum has the same problem, the
protobuf library seems to return references to internal string
constants when retrieving the enum values.

Campaign to perform fault injection experiments on the Fiasco microkernel. Required arguments:
- Variant (-v): The actual experiment variant (e.g. BASELINE)
- Benchmark (-b): The actual experiment benchmark
- Golden-Run (-g) : Specify whether the golden-run or the actual fault-injection experiment should be executed (only for fail-client)
- Stop address (-E): Address where the experiment should finish
- Timer-ticks (-T): Number of timer ticks from the golden run experiment
- Total-instructions (-t): Number of total instructions from the golden run experiment
- Ecc-panic-function-address (-p): Address of the Ecc-panic function in order to detect failures (if any fault detection is included)
- Errors_corrected variable address (-c): Address of the errors_corrected variable in order to determain if any error was corrected
Important: First run the generic-tracing experiment so there is a "state" folder where the actual experiment can start from and import/prune the resulting trace.

Instead of issuing a query for every variant, we assemble a set of
variant ids and query `WHERE variant_id in (1,...)'. This has not only
the effect of higher optimization potential for the database, but also
the query is issued before any result can come back. This will avoid an
overfull receive queue within the job server.

This is a copy of the generic-tracing plugin for CoRedOS with the following
additions:
- random generator plugin is added if a "random_source" symbol is found
- checkpoint plugin is added if a "fail_trace" symbol is found. If stack
limits are defined by "_sstack" and "_estack" symbols this memory region
is checksummed on each checkpoint.
Change-Id: I00403ed917ad941d87ac2aeabd00c441135d9af4
The checkpoint plugin watches for writes on the given symbol and logs
the written value and the simulation time to a given output file.
Additionally, a SHA1 hash is computed over all memory locations between
given start and stop symbols.
On x86, virtual memory is disabled while computing the checkpoint hash.
This means the checkpoint plugin in checksumming over physical, not
virtual, address ranges! This can result to unexpected behaviour if
virtual memory is not used for identity paging.
To save checkpoint information to a file, use the Checkpoint constructor
with a given checkpoint symbol and add the plugin to the experiment (flow).
To check checkpoints against an existing file, use the constructor without
memory symbol and do not add the plugin to the experiment. Instead, define
a memory listener "manually" and call the check() function. This approach
was taken as the simplest form of cooperation between experiment and
plugins.
For SHA1 calculation, C code from RFC 3174 is used to prevent depending
on another external library. However, this may not be the fastest or
best code for the task.
TEMPORARY HACK/WORKAROUND:
Since dOSEK uses the highest bit (31) of some pointers for parity and
the checksum plugin reads these (stack) pointers to determine checksum
regions, the plugin currently DISCARDS BIT 31 of pointers used as
dynamic region limits.
This will be replaced in the future by a callback mechanism, which lets
the experiment specify the regions to checksum (called at each checkpoint).

assert(...) can be optimized away, therefore side-effect code should not

Since we know for which variant we want to have the completed pilots, we
do not have to catch all pilot_ids but only those who of pilots that are
finished and have the correct variant_id. This speeds the startup of the
campaign server enormously when having many completed campaigns in the
database.

This change renames the logger object used in weather-monitor from
"log" to "LOG" in order to circumvent potential naming conflicts
with e.g. the log() function from e.g. math.h/cmath.

This commit modifies the weather-monitor experiment so that it
uses util/ElfReader instead of "nm -C" in a wrapper-script to
determine the various symbol addresses. experimentInfo.hpp now
only contains (rudimentary) configuration data for the experiment.
Furthermore this commit modularizes the experiment's code so that
there no longer is a humongous run() method.

Up to now, the IOPortListener only caught invocations of INB/OUTB with
the port number in DX and 8-bit input/output (from/to AL), but none of
the various other methods to access the I/O port range (e.g., by 8-bit
immediate port numbers). This change is supposed to catch all other
cases, too.

This change allows DatabaseCampaign users to take advantage of the
improved variant selection methods in the Database class (multiple
uses of --variant/--benchmark possible, plus
--exclude-variant/--exclude-benchmark switches).
Change-Id: Idb1ca04538ff7601b3648cd9ba766aa8690fff6b
If no --variant / --benchmark is specified, it's more reasonable to
prune or run *all* variants/benchmarks (using the wildcard "%")
instead of defaulting to "none"/"none". The trivial case with only
one single variant/benchmark (which may still be "none"/"none" if
import-trace's default is used) is still covered by this new default
behavior.

The SumTree implements an efficient tree data structure for
"roulette-wheel" sampling, or "sampling with fault expansion", i.e.,
sampling of trace entries / pilots without replacement and with a
picking probability proportional to the entries' sizes.
For every sample, the naive approach picks a random number between 0
and the sum of all entry sizes minus one. It then iterates over all
entries and sums their sizes until the sum exceeds the random number.
The current entry gets picked. The main disadvantage is the linear
complexity, which gets unpleasant for millions of entries.
The core idea behind the SumTree implementation is to maintain the
size sum of groups of entries, kept in "buckets". Thereby, a bucket
can be quickly jumped over. To keep bucket sizes (and thereby linear
search times) bounded, more bucket hierarchy levels are introduced
when a defined bucket size limit is reached.
Note that the current implementation is built for a pure growth phase
(when the tree gets filled with pilots from the database), followed by
a sampling phase when the tree gets emptied. It does not handle a
mixed add/remove case very smartly, although it should remain
functional.

The compiler should be able to completely optimize away side-effect
free usage of this logger. Can be used as a drop-in replacement for
Loggers to silence logging output for known-good code without having
to remove the corresponding "LOG << ..." code.

unused features can still be disabled.
