微软发布了SQLServer for Linux,但是安装竟然需要3.5GB内存,这让大部分云主机用户都没办法尝试这个新东西
这篇我将讲解如何破解这个内存限制
要看关键的可以直接跳到第6步,只需要替换4个字节就可以破解这个限制
首先按照微软的给出的步骤安装和配置
https://docs.microsoft.com/zh-cn/sql/linux/sql-server-linux-setup-red-hat到执行/opt/mssql/bin/sqlservr-setup时可以看到这个错误
sqlservr: This program requires a machine with at least 3250 megabytes of memory.
- 按错误文本查找消息在哪个文件里面
[root@localhost ~]# cd /opt/mssql/bin/
[root@localhost bin]# grep -irn "3250"
[root@localhost bin]# grep -irn "megabytes of memory"
Binary file sqlpackage matches
Binary file sqlpackage matches
Binary file sqlservr matches
[root@localhost bin]# strings sqlservr | grep "megabytes of memory"
%s: This program requires a machine with at least %zu megabytes of memory.
[root@localhost bin]# strings sqlpackage | grep "megabytes of memory"
%s: This program requires a machine with at least %zu megabytes of memory.
看来sqlservr和sqlpackage会检测这个限制,并且这个限制是一个常量
- 查找错误消息的位置
[root@localhost bin]# hexdump -C sqlservr | less
找到这里
0006baf0 72 69 6e 67 29 00 25 73 3a 20 54 68 69 73 20 70 |ring).%s: This p|
0006bb00 72 6f 67 72 61 6d 20 72 65 71 75 69 72 65 73 20 |rogram requires |
可以看到消息在0006baf6的位置
- 查找调用错误消息的位置
[root@localhost bin]# objdump -C -S sqlservr | less
找到这里
23940: 48 8d 35 af 81 04 00 lea 0x481af(%rip),%rsi # 6baf6
23947: 31 c0 xor %eax,%eax
23949: 48 89 ca mov %rcx,%rdx
2394c: 48 89 d9 mov %rbx,%rcx
2394f: e8 6c e4 fe ff callq 11dc0 <fprintf@plt>
23954: bf 01 00 00 00 mov $0x1,%edi
23959: e8 e2 e1 fe ff callq 11b40 <exit@plt>
判断的函数在这里
238e0: 55 push %rbp
238e1: 48 89 e5 mov %rsp,%rbp
238e4: 53 push %rbx
238e5: 48 83 ec 78 sub $0x78,%rsp
// 把这个函数接收的第二个参数放到rbx
// 参考 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86_calling_conventions (System V AMD64 ABI)
238e9: 48 89 f3 mov %rsi,%rbx
// 调用sysinfo获取内存大小
// rdi是第一个参数,是一个在堆栈中的struct sysinfo
// 参考 https://linux.die.net/man/2/sysinfo
238ec: 48 8d 7d 88 lea -0x78(%rbp),%rdi
238f0: e8 3b e3 fe ff callq 11c30 <sysinfo@plt>
// 偏移量的计算如下
// -0x78: uptime (struct sysinfo的开头地址)
// -0x70: loads[3]
// -0x58: totalram
// -0x50: freeram
// -0x48: sharedram
// -0x40: bufferram
// -0x38: totalswap
// -0x30: freeswap
// -0x28: procs (short为什么占8个字节?看https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_structure_alignment)
// -0x20: totalhigh
// -0x18: freehigh
// -0x10: mem_unit (同样,int 4个字节 align 4个字节)
// 计算出rax = totalram * mem_unit
238f5: 8b 45 f0 mov -0x10(%rbp),%eax
238f8: 48 0f af 45 a8 imul -0x58(%rbp),%rax
// 如果rax小于rbx则跳到23909,即显示内存不足并退出
238fd: 48 39 d8 cmp %rbx,%rax
23900: 72 07 jb 23909
23902: 48 83 c4 78 add $0x78,%rsp
23906: 5b pop %rbx
23907: 5d pop %rbp
23908: c3 retq
调用判断的函数的代码在这里
// 这里的第二个参数是3250000000,可以看到内存的限制值是一个常量
// 0xc1b71080 = 3250000000
1486a: be 80 10 b7 c1 mov $0xc1b71080,%esi
1486f: 4c 89 e7 mov %r12,%rdi
14872: e8 69 f0 00 00 callq 238e0
顺道再用hexdump查找一下有多少处地方用了80 10 b7 c1,结果是只有一处
00014860 00 00 48 89 df e8 66 15 00 00 be 80 10 b7 c1 4c |..H...f........L|
00014870 89 e7 e8 69 f0 00 00 0f 57 c0 0f 29 85 70 ff ff |...i....W..).p..|
- 使用python修改代码
改条件判断的jb或者改8010b7c1都可以,我这里把8010b7c1改成更小的值0080841e(512M)
[root@localhost bin]# mv sqlservr sqlservr.old
[root@localhost bin]# python
>>> a = open("sqlservr.old", "rb").read()
>>> b = a.replace("\x80\x10\xb7\xc1", "\x00\x80\x84\x1e")
>>> open("sqlservr", "wb").write(b)
[root@localhost bin]# chmod +x sqlservr
可以继续替换掉sqlpackage中的限制值,但是不替换也可以使用
- 继续配置sqlserver
[root@localhost bin]# /opt/mssql/bin/sqlservr-setup
[root@localhost bin]# systemctl status mssql-server
如果你执行完命令后没有看到服务正常启动,可能是之前的配置没有成功导致的
删除mssql的数据文件夹并重试即可
[root@localhost bin]# rm -rf /var/opt/mssql
[root@localhost bin]# /opt/mssql/bin/sqlservr-setup
正常启动后可以看到

启动成功后使用微软提供的命令行工具连接也可以,使用windows上的客户端连接也可以

下图是2G内存上运行的mssql
Ubuntu上的破解会不一样,因为Ubuntu安装前会运行检测程序,如何破解将在下一篇讲解
题外话
- mssql for linux有日期限制和联网验证,预计正式版以后免费的可能性很小
- mssql在linux上编译开启了pie选项并且没有符号表导出,这让gdb跟踪变得很困难,但这次破解只需要静态分析
- mssql的本体封在了/opt/mssql/lib/sqlservr.sfp里面,如果需要破解其他限制可能还需要花功夫研究这个文件
