This question already has an answer here:



  • Wrongly set chmod / 777. Problems?

    4 answers



I "accidentally" ran 



sudo chmod -R 0755 /usr/lib


And now many things in my system don't work. Is there a cure for this (Manjaro 17.1) that doesn't involve re-installing my entire system?

For a complete and proper fix, you're probably looking at restoring from a backup (you do have a backup, right?) or reinstall. Just doing an ad-hoc find /usr/lib -type f -exec ls -l "" ; | grep '^-..x..x..x' on one of my boxen shows a vast scattering of non-directories which should be executable on your host. But not everything is meant to be executable.

  • Egad, don’t parse the output of ls!  Do find /usr/lib -type f -perm -111 (or, perhaps more usefully, -perm /111).  Or, if you have GNU find, you can use -executable, but that’s of dubious usefulness.  If checks whether the file is executable by you, so, if you aren’t root, it will miss files with modes like 744.

  • Not to mention not everything should be 0644 or 0755 either. E.g., 4755 for /usr/lib/openssh/ssh-keysign on my Debian box. I would guess loss of set-id bits is what broke the system.

How many registers does an x86_64 CPU actually have?

Image
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 2 down vote favorite I am currently learning reverse engineering and am studying the flags register. I had in my mind that rflags was just another name for one of the 16 general purpose registers, for example rax or rbx . But it looks like rflags is actually an additional register. So that makes 17 registers in total... how many more could there be? I have spent at least an hour on this and found numerous different answers. The best answer so far is this, which says that there are 40 registers in total. 16 General Purpose Registers 2 Status Registers 6 Code Segment Registers 16 SSE Registers 8 FPU/MMX Registers But if I add that up, I get 48. Could anybody provide an official answer on how many registers an x86_64 CPU has (e.g. an Intel i7). Additionally, I have seen references to 'hardware' and 'architectural' registers. What are those registers and how many are there? register x86-64 share | improve this...
