/* change system id on IRIX 6.2 (IP28) consider this a very early alpha - ratatosk@mail2me.com Placed in the public domain by the author - 1996 since the system ID on different types of SGI hardware is obtained in different ways, YMMV. This may even crash your machine. compile by -- cc -o change-sid62-ip28 change-sid62-ip28.c -lelf run this with no parameters first and make sure it reports the correct system id if all is well, you can run it with the system id you want e.g. marmot:/home/mch/tmp> cc -o change-sid62-ip28 change-sid62-ip28.c -lelf marmot:/home/mch/tmp> su Password: marmot# /sbin/sysinfo System ID: 12 34 56 78 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 marmot# ./change-sid62-ip28 hexadecimal system id seems to be 12345678 marmot# ./change-sid62-ip28 69c0ffee marmot# /sbin/sysinfo System ID: 69 c0 ff ee 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 marmot# */ #include #include #include #include #include #include struct nlist64 nl[2]; main(argc,argv) int argc; char *argv[]; { int kmem; int just_read = 0; unsigned int new_id, cur_id; off_t where; just_read = (argc <= 1); if (argc > 1) new_id = strtoul(argv[1], NULL, 16); if ((kmem = open("/dev/kmem", O_RDWR)) < 0) { fprintf(stderr, "cannot open /dev/kmem\n"); exit(1); } nl[0].n_name="enet_collision"; nl[1].n_name = NULL; if (nlist64("/unix", nl) < 0) { fprintf(stderr, "cannot read namelist out of /dev/ksyms\n"); exit(1); } if ((where = nl[0].n_value) == 0) { fprintf(stderr, "unknown kernel variable enet_collision\n"); exit(1); } if (lseek(kmem, where + 4, SEEK_SET) == (-1)) { fprintf(stderr, "lseek on /dev/kmem failed\n"); exit(1); } if (!just_read) { if (write (kmem, &new_id, 4) < 4) { fprintf(stderr, "write to /dev/kmem failed\n"); exit(1); } } else { if (read(kmem, &cur_id, 4) < 4) { fprintf(stderr, "read failed\n"); exit(1); } printf("hexadecimal system id seems to be %08x\n", cur_id); } close(kmem); exit(0); }
