vmie_mem could only be built from a path. Add a second input: an
already-open file descriptor, dup()'d internally (borrowed - the
caller's fd stays valid, core owns and closes its copy).
- vmie_mem_from_fd / vmie_mem_from_fd_segs (read-write, as the path
constructors: PROT_RW, MAP_SHARED)
- vmie_mem_from_ro_fd / vmie_mem_from_ro_fd_segs (read-only: map
PROT_READ, mark the source ro; gpa_write/gva_write return -1, every
read path is unchanged; accepts an O_RDONLY fd)
- vmie_win32_open_fd (the win32 context over an fd backing file)
Factor the mmap/validate tail and the single-low segment map out of the
path constructors into shared helpers, so the path and fd inputs go
through one mmap site and one map builder each.
Name and isolate the Windows engine as one of potentially several. The
public surface moves to include/win32.h with an opaque vmie_win32 handle
(vmie_win32_open/close/mem); the engine's Windows internals — host bring-up,
the struct-offset profile, process/module/PE/text decode — live under
src/engine/win32. The generic address-space layer stays in src/engine
(gva.c + engine-arch.h, carrying no offset table): gva.c is de-profiled, and
CR3 bring-up reaches the hot translator through a cold gva_translate bridge
so the zero-copy hot path stays private and inlinable.
A memory source is now first-class and public: vmie_mem_open/_open_segs/
_close open a flat dump (or an explicit segment map) as a vmie_mem, with
gpa_seg promoted to the public contract. The physical signature scan is
exposed source-agnostically: sig_scan_mem returns GPAs for any vmie_mem,
sig_scan_sources scans several sources with per-source attribution, and
sig_from_bytes builds an exact needle from a byte span. The pure matcher is
unchanged; dumps and the live engine image are scanned uniformly, neither
needing the other.
CORE (src/core): vmie_mem — guest-physical substrate with a data-driven
segment map (replaces the hardcoded 4 GiB PCI-hole topology). ENGINE
(src/engine): x86-64 paging + Windows bring-up; produces the generic memory
model. HANDLERS (src/handlers): the signature/value/pointer scanners, which
now consume an OS-agnostic contract.
Keystone: gva_ctx is split into vmie_mem (core) + vmie (engine); the generic
access functions take vmie_mem* + cr3 and no longer compile in the Windows
offset table. New public contract include/memmodel.h (vmie_mem, mem_view_t,
vregion, task, range, the gva_* access); win32 surface in include/vmie.h.
Leak relocations: the PE parser, UTF-16 decode and CR3-recovery heuristics
move engine-side; the matcher stays a pure, source-agnostic handler, and the
pointer scanner takes a generic range[] instead of reaching into the process
enumerator.
