Linux version? #18

pedrib · 2016-09-29T13:50:33Z

Hi,

Great work, I love the plugin. I was wondering if you were thinking about support the Linux version of IDA? Since you have remote debugging, I assume this is possible?

a1ext · 2016-09-29T14:02:02Z

Since IDA for Linux isn't widely spread, it currently is not supported...
Anyway, could you show me the main purposes to add the Linux support?

pedrib · 2016-09-29T14:13:19Z

As you know, when you buy IDA you need to specify a platform. If you mostly work on Linux, you should get the Linux version, although at times you need to work on Windows binaries.

Consider the case of having IDA on Linux, and debugging a process in a VM using x64dbg. Labeless would be very helpful in coordinating between the two.

a1ext · 2016-09-29T14:22:39Z

Hmm... It looks reasonable and possible. Stay tuned, I'll try to add "IDA for Linux" support and I'll let you know about the results soon :)

pedrib · 2016-09-29T14:46:11Z

great 👍 you've got your beta (and alpha) tester here.

a1ext · 2016-10-05T10:45:08Z

@pedrib What IDA PRO version do you have? 6.9.5?

pedrib · 2016-10-05T11:01:02Z

@a1ext yes

a1ext · 2016-10-05T22:29:33Z

@pedrib Could you check, is there lib/x86_libnux_gcc_32/ida.a file in the SDK?
I cannot link the plugin... There are some missing imports...

a1ext · 2016-10-05T23:47:57Z

@pedrib Don't mind. Could you check this plugin?
labeless_ida_690.plx need to place into plugins directory
libprotobuf.so.9 need to place into IDA PRO home directory (near by idaq)

pedrib · 2016-10-08T13:42:47Z

@a1ext seems to work pretty well for x32dbg at least! Great job!
The only problem is that the GUI is a bit weird on the IDA side, see screenshot. It looks like it's not scaling properly to the font size.

pedrib · 2016-10-08T13:45:38Z

Auto sync also works well for function names, but I need to rename a function for the comments to sync (not sure if this is normal behaviour).

a1ext · 2016-10-08T14:13:19Z

It looks like it's not scaling properly to the font size.

Sure, It'll be fixed in next release, the same issue like #16

Auto sync also works well for function names, but I need to rename a function for the comments to sync (not sure if this is normal behaviour).

Don't understand, could you explain?

a1ext · 2016-10-08T17:31:02Z

@pedrib Hey, do you have x86_linux_gcc_64 folder in your SDK? I don't have it... So I cannot build plugin for IDA64 :(

a1ext · 2016-10-08T17:48:27Z

@pedrib Could you check (this build) is the GUI OK or not?

pedrib · 2016-10-08T19:22:11Z

@a1ext gui is perfect now, thanks!

And yes, I do have the x86_linux_gcc_64 folder on my SDK. Do you want me to send you the SDK, or you want me to build it?

a1ext · 2016-10-08T19:25:12Z

@pedrib just send that folder, it will be enough. That's strange... maybe the content of idasdk* depends on license type... I have one for Win, and there is no such folder...

pedrib · 2016-10-08T19:30:59Z

@a1ext strange. Anyway can you please give me your email and I'll send it to you (don't want to post it here for the public to download).

a1ext · 2016-10-08T19:31:57Z

a1ext · 2016-10-09T12:22:31Z

Here are binaries for Linux, in case if anybody want to test them. Thanks @pedrib for help :)

pedrib · 2016-10-13T10:56:12Z

@a1ext I'm having a problem with the plugins loaded - it seems that when I try to exit IDA, it hangs just after closing a database. The window just stays there, and I have to kill the process. I'm not sure why this happens, but only happens with your plugins loaded... Maybe something to do with a loose network connection or listening socket?

And you're welcome with the help, thank you very much for your amazing work!

a1ext · 2016-10-13T11:47:33Z

Could you attach the debugger (like gdb) and take a look where it is hanging by the stack of all threads.
The gdb's command to show backtrace of all the theads is here:
thread apply all bt

Also, please, check is there alive thread, which by the stack gets from labeless plugin.

pedrib · 2016-10-13T14:36:59Z

Here is the full backtrace:

Looks like thread 1 is blocking in Labeless::terminate?

a1ext · 2016-10-13T15:00:22Z

Hmm... It looks like labeless waits for worker thread and the worker thread is "Thread 4"

Thread 4 (Thread 0xd8127b40 (LWP 29266)):
#0 0xe4304bd9 in __kernel_vsyscall ()
#1 0xe2b1c4ec in recvfrom () from /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0

#5 0xe28508be in clone () from /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6

And that is so weird... There is recvfrom() called (UDP), but labeless uses TCP for the communication with debug backend.

Could you check are these addresses belong to labeless plugin:

0x0d19c8a0
0x0d19ca7f

@pedrib How to reproduce?

To be honest I have no idea how to reproduce it. Sometimes it works fine, and it seems to only work in some binaries. I have a feeling this has something to do with IDA debugging too, if that makes sense? It seems to happen more on a specific binary where I have used the IDA debugger before (but not currently).

It's a weird bug.

a1ext · 2016-10-13T21:17:59Z

Anyway, I think that thread with recvfrom() is not a culprit. There is no Labeless' RPC thread running and by unknown reason QThread::wait() doesn't exit... Could you check these binaries?

pedrib · 2016-10-14T18:20:06Z

Ah, now it still hangs, but exits cleanly after 20 seconds.

a1ext · 2016-10-14T23:30:22Z

It's not a solution... need to dig deeper...

a1ext · 2016-10-15T17:38:07Z

@pedrib Please, check this build

pedrib · 2016-10-16T02:50:27Z

@a1ext great job, seems to solve it!

a1ext · 2016-10-16T10:23:27Z

@pedrib good, next time, please, create a separate issue :)

pedrib · 2016-10-16T19:13:34Z

will do! I guess we can close this one?
