Subject: [RFC] scripts: add leaking_addresses.pl
Currently we are leaking addresses from the kernel to user space. This
script as an attempt to find those leakages. Script parses `dmesg`
output and /proc and /sys files for suspicious entries.
Signed-off-by: Tobin C. Harding <me@...in.cc>

My usual disclaimer; I am a long way from being a Perl monger, any tips,
however trivial, most welcome.
Parses dmesg output first then;
Algorithm walks the directory tree of /proc and /sys, opens each file
for reading and parses file line by line. We therefore need to skip
certain files;
- binary files.
- relay large files of fixed format that _definitely_ won't leak.
- non-readable files.
Since I do not know procfs or sysfs extensively I set `DEBUG = 1` within
the script (causes output of file name before parsing) and checked each
file it choked on. Obviously this means there are going to be a bunch of
other files not present on my system. Either more files to skip or a
suggestion of a better way to do this most appreciated.
Like I said, happy to take suggestions, abuse, tweaks etc
Thanks in advance for taking the time to look at this. Oh, I didn't
comment on my regex skills, no further comment required ;)
thanks,
Tobin.
