Hey,
When dealing with cross cache related attacks i've more than once found myself parsing the output of
buddy-dump, so what i usually do is runpageinfoon the page i'm interested in. However, if said page is in the PCP or has been merged into a block of order > 0, thestruct pagewill not have thePG_BUDDYflag set, therefore i made this command in the same spirit asslab-contains.The default mode parses the free-lists just like
buddy-dumpto find out if a given page is in the buddy or not.One can use the
-Loption to skip the free-lists parsing, this mode only uses flags present instruct pageit can detect whether a page is in the middle of a buddy block but it cannot find out if a page is in the PCP or not.this is quite useful for me, i don't know if people would like to use it too.
If something needs refactoring or modifications i would be happy to do so.
