The obvious exploitation vector is deliberately pissing you off to make you feel guilty and lose confidence. I think my father used to be like you for the first two years or so, then he grew up :)

This is MPLS, not Ethernet. No protocol field, only endpoints know what's inside.

Haha, I think you nailed it. Windows 95 had exactly the same bug, except that the counter was unsigned so it was taking 48 days to crash. I only hope these machines aren't flying some modified W95 kernel :)

One WTF I've seen: a consumer router which failed to NAT outgoing packets if their endian-swapped destination IP matched the LAN subnet, i.e. anything sent to X.1.168.192 would be forwarded to WAN with 192.168.1.Y source IP and get los

push rbp ; <- stack alignment push This shouldn't be needed. 8 byte alignment is fine for the CPU itself. The purpose of 16 byte alignment is to facilitate making 16 byte aligned stack allocations.

Fine, but you get this thanks to already being linked with these megagodzillas like kernel32.dll. Try without them.

The userspace/kernel interface for invoking syscalls which the OP calls with assembly code is obviously not portable. Not even between similar OSs on one architecture and absolutely not between architectures. POSIX only specifies a s

And any code running there can read and write your RAM as it pleases because "ME is secure and obviously nothing bad can ever happen there so there's no reason to protect other things from the ME".

Does that mean you can run Irix binaries on MIPS Linux?

Maybe perf stat -d php ./benchmark.php would show some difference? It measures some kernel and CPU events like context switches, page faults, L1 and L3 cache misses.

But then the triangle shows only one hue. I wonder if some people wouldn't at this point decide that there is no visible way to choose other hue and give up without trying.
