From e72203abec8f15bb187c239256e7c991cb21601f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Qiuhao Li Date: Mon, 11 Jan 2021 14:11:48 +0800 Subject: fuzz: split write operand using binary approach Currently, we split the write commands' data from the middle. If it does not work, try to move the pivot left by one byte and retry until there is no space. But, this method has two flaws: 1. It may fail to trim all unnecessary bytes on the right side. For example, there is an IO write command: write addr uuxxxxuu u is the unnecessary byte for the crash. Unlike ram write commands, in most case, a split IO write won't trigger the same crash, So if we split from the middle, we will get: write addr uu (will be removed in next round) write addr xxxxuu For xxxxuu, since split it from the middle and retry to the leftmost byte won't get the same crash, we will be stopped from removing the last two bytes. 2. The algorithm complexity is O(n) since we move the pivot byte by byte. To solve the first issue, we can try a symmetrical position on the right if we fail on the left. As for the second issue, instead moving by one byte, we can approach the boundary exponentially, achieving O(log(n)). Give an example: xxxxuu len=6 + | + xxx,xuu 6/2=3 fail + +--------------+-------------+ | | + + xx,xxuu 6/2^2=1 fail xxxxu,u 6-1=5 success + + +------------------+----+ | | | +-------------+ u removed + + xx,xxu 5/2=2 fail xxxx,u 6-2=4 success + | +-----------+ u removed In some rare cases, this algorithm will fail to trim all unnecessary bytes: xxxxxxxxxuxxxxxx xxxxxxxx-xuxxxxxx Fail xxxx-xxxxxuxxxxxx Fail xxxxxxxxxuxx-xxxx Fail ... I think the trade-off is worth it.
