Safer Seccomp: Dead Syscalls Elimination
Yuan Tan, Zhangjin Wu, Xiao Liu
- Contributed kernel patches to Linux. Discovered excitement and passion around kernels.
- Utilized compiler directives to establish reference relationships for all orphaned sections.
- The excessive use of ‘KEEP()’ in the Linux kernel can be eliminated using the above method.
- Made the elimination of unused system calls possible through the construction of references between segments.
- Reduced the size of the kernel image by 7%.
- Reduced the attack surface that prevents attackers from exploiting trimmed syscalls.
- The early version has received positive feedback from the maintainer.
