Currently the nscd service is installed in systemd as a simple
service, which means that it is able to handle its own errors and does
not quit. Since nscd does not fit that description, i.e. it can exit
on errors like, say, failing to parse nscd.conf, it should be declared
as forking instead.
The call to open_tmpl_archive was being passed a pointer to an
object allocated on the stack. The object on the stack is not
guaranteed to be initialized to zero so we need to minimally
initialize `fname' in the struct locarhandle to ensure that
open_tml_archive loads the default tempalte.
This error was seen while debugging glibc installs in a qemu
VM where it is more likely the stack pages were dirty. It has
not been reported on non-VM systems.
Usage:
1. Invoke the script as follows:
./sync-upstream.sh upstream-repo
where upstream-repo is the path to the synced upstream git repo.
2. Watch the script run. If it proceeds to building the package, then
everything seems good and you just need to test the build after it
is complete. If it exits before the build (you'll know if you read
the output of the script) then manual intervention is required to
complete the sync. This will typically happen when a patch fails
to apply on the new sources.
The fill_archive function should support being
called with a NULL fname argument. A NULL fname
argument indicates that the default archive should
be opened. We enable this by setting ah.fname to
NULL before initializing ah or calling open_archive.
This way if fname is NULL then ah.fname remains NULL
and open_archive opens the default archive.
- Allow applications to use pthread_atfork without explicitly
requiring libpthread.so. (#1013801)
- Support `--list-archive FILE' in localedef utility.
- Allow ldconfig cached objects previously marked as hard or soft
ABI to now become unmarked without raising an error. This works
around a binutils bug that caused objects to become unmarked.
