evo-syzkaller-ppdev-syzlang

evo-syzkaller-ppdev-syzlang is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from OpenLAIR/OpenSkill. It costs 70 tokens per session (818 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A generator for syzlang descriptions of the Linux ppdev parallel-port driver. Syzlang is the description language used by syzkaller, a tool that tests operating-system interfaces with generated inputs.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for creating syzkaller input descriptions for testing the Linux parallel-port driver on amd64 and 386 systems.
Why use it?
It removes the need to manually list the driver’s ioctl commands, data structures, flags, and architecture-specific values. This helps avoid mismatches between 32-bit and 64-bit systems.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

evo-syzkaller-ppdev-syzlang scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/generate.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

evo-syzkaller-ppdev-syzlang

Generates complete syzkaller syzlang device driver descriptions for the Linux ppdev (parallel port) subsystem.

Overview

Produces two files:

  • dev_ppdev.txt — syzlang descriptions with includes, resource, opener, all 28 ioctl variants, struct, and flag groups
  • dev_ppdev.txt.const — architecture-specific constant values for amd64 and 386

Key Domain Knowledge

IOCTL Encoding (x86)

  • ppdev uses magic type char 'p' (0x70) for all ioctls
  • _IO: dir=0, size=0
  • _IOR: dir=2 (bit 31), size encoded in bits 16-29
  • _IOW: dir=1 (bit 30), size encoded in bits 16-29
  • Formula: (dir << 30) | (size << 16) | (type << 8) | nr

Architecture Differences

  • struct timeval is 16 bytes on amd64 (two 8-byte longs) but 8 bytes on 386 (two 4-byte longs)
  • This causes PPGETTIME and PPSETTIME to have different ioctl numbers per architecture
  • All other ioctls have identical values across amd64 and 386

Complete IOCTL Coverage (28 total)

  • 4 _IO (no-arg): PPCLAIM, PPRELEASE, PPYIELD, PPEXCL
  • 14 _IOW (input): PPSETMODE, PPWSTATUS(obsolete), PPWCONTROL, PPWDATA, PPWECONTROL(obsolete), PPWFIFO(obsolete), PPFCONTROL, PPDATADIR, PPNEGOT, PPWCTLONIRQ, PPSETPHASE, PPSETTIME, PPSETFLAGS
  • 10 _IOR (output): PPRSTATUS, PPRCONTROL, PPRDATA, PPRECONTROL(obsolete), PPRFIFO(obsolete), PPCLRIRQ, PPGETTIME, PPGETMODES, PPGETMODE, PPGETPHASE, PPGETFLAGS

Syzlang Direction Mapping

  • _IOR (kernel writes to user) → ptr[out, ...]
  • _IOW (user writes to kernel) → ptr[in, ...]
  • _IO (no data) → omit third argument entirely

Flag Groups

  • ieee1284_modes: 12 IEEE 1284 protocol mode constants from linux/parport.h
  • ppdev_flags: PP_FASTWRITE, PP_FASTREAD, PP_W91284PIC from linux/ppdev.h

Const File Format

  • Header: # Code generated by syz-sysgen. DO NOT EDIT.
  • Architecture line: arches = 386, amd64
  • Per-constant: NAME = 386:value, amd64:value (arch-qualified format)
  • Values are decimal integers
  • Constants must be sorted alphabetically (syzkaller convention)

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
