Description of Problem:
|
|
This problem is the same as issue #580553 of RHEL5.
|
|
This ticket is for RHEL4.
|
|
|
|
We hit a failure of resolving a symbol which is locally defined in a library,
|
|
in a complex case that I'll describe below.
|
|
If the dynamic linker, glibc or something else has a bug in it, please fix it.
|
|
If we did something wrong on creating a program, please point it out.
|
|
|
|
We wrote a program that consists of an executable file and four libraries.
|
|
The executable file a.out requires two libraries, libA and libX.
|
|
The library libA requires another library libB.
|
|
The library libB requires another library libC.
|
|
|
|
The program operates in the following steps.
|
|
|
|
+------+ +-------+ +------+ +------+ +-----------------------------------+
|
|
| libX | (2) | a.out | (1) | libA |----| libB |------| libC (5) (7) |
|
|
| | <=== | (8) | ===> | | | | <=== | atexit(libC_fini)--> _libC_fini() |
|
|
+------+ (3) +-------+ (6) +------+ +------+ (4) +-----------------------------------+
|
|
|
|
(1) a.out calls dlopen() for libA.
|
|
libB and libC shall be loaded, too.
|
|
(2) a.out calls dlopen() for libX.
|
|
(3) a.out calls dlclose() for libX.
|
|
(4) libC calls dlopen() for libB.
|
|
(5) libC calls atexit() to register libC_fini().
|
|
(6) a.out calls dlclose() for libA.
|
|
libB and libC are no longer needed, so both libraries shall be getting unloaded.
|
|
(7) libC_fini() shall be called when libC is getting unloaded.
|
|
(8) a.out exits.
|
|
|
|
But when we run the program, unexpectedly
|
|
|
|
a) step (7) is executed _after_ step (8)
|
|
b) libC cannot resolve a locally-defined symbol _libC_fini at executing (7)

always.
|
|
|
|
Step to Reproduce:
|
|
1) Extract the reproducer.
|
|
$ tar zxvf reproducer.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
2) Compile it.
|
|
$ cd reproducer
|
|
$ make
|
|
|
|
3) Run it.
|
|
$ ./run.sh
|
|
|
|
Actual Results:
|
|
$ ./run.sh
|
|
1)main:dlopen libA.so
|
|
2)main:dlopen libX.so
|
|
3)main:dlclose libX.so
|
|
4)libC:dlopen libB.so
|
|
5)libC:atexit(libC_fini)
|
|
6)main:dlclose libA.so
|
|
8)main:finish main
|
|
./main: symbol lookup error: ./libC.so: undefined symbol: _libC_fini
|
|
|
|
Expected Results:
|
|
$ ./run.sh
|
|
1)main:dlopen libA.so
|
|
2)main:dlopen libX.so
|
|
3)main:dlclose libX.so
|
|
4)libC:dlopen libB.so
|
|
5)libC:atexit(libC_fini)
|
|
6)main:dlclose libA.so
|
|
7)libC:finish - atexit()
|
|
8)main:finish main

|
Business Impact:
|
|
The application suffering this issue cannot call the function registered
|
|
by atexit() because of the failure of resolving its symbol. It causes two
|
|
severe problems, a) the failure of cooperation with other processes by
|
|
notifying them of its completion, and b) the system resource leaks by not
|
|
freeing them.
