Summary
Gain a solid understanding of how Linux C and C++ compilers generate binary code. This book explains the reversing and binary analysis of ARM64 architecture now used by major Linux cloud providers and covers topics ranging from writing programs in assembly language, live debugging, and static binary analysis of compiled C and C++ code. It is ideal for those working with embedded devices, including mobile phones and tablets. Using the latest version of Red Hat, you'll look closely at the foundations of diagnostics of core memory dumps, live and postmortem debugging of Linux applications, services, and systems. You'll also work with the GDB debugger and use it for disassembly and reversing. This book uses practical step-by-step exercises of increasing complexity with explanations and many diagrams, including some necessary background topics. In addition, you will be able to analyze such code confidently, understand stack memory usage, and reconstruct original C/C++ code. And as you'll see, memory forensics, malware, and vulnerability analysis, require an understanding of ARM64 assembly language and how C and C++ compilers generate code, including memory layout and pointers. This book provides the background knowledge and practical foundations you'll need to understand internal Linux program structure and behavior.
