The non-reentrant gethostbyXXXX() functions deadlock if called recursively, for example if libldap needs to be initialized from within gethostbyXXXX() (which actually happens if nss_ldap is used for hostname resolution and earlier modules can't resolve the local host name), so use the reentrant versions of the functions, even if we're not being compiled for use in libldap_r Resolves: #179730 Author: Jeffery Layton diff -uNPrp openldap-2.4.23.old/libraries/libldap/util-int.c openldap-2.4.23.new/libraries/libldap/util-int.c --- openldap-2.4.23.old/libraries/libldap/util-int.c 2010-04-19 18:53:01.000000000 +0200 +++ openldap-2.4.23.new/libraries/libldap/util-int.c 2010-08-19 17:47:52.456805354 +0200 @@ -52,8 +52,8 @@ extern int h_errno; #ifndef LDAP_R_COMPILE # undef HAVE_REENTRANT_FUNCTIONS # undef HAVE_CTIME_R -# undef HAVE_GETHOSTBYNAME_R -# undef HAVE_GETHOSTBYADDR_R +/* # undef HAVE_GETHOSTBYNAME_R */ +/* # undef HAVE_GETHOSTBYADDR_R */ #else # include @@ -330,7 +330,7 @@ ldap_pvt_csnstr(char *buf, size_t len, u #define BUFSTART (1024-32) #define BUFMAX (32*1024-32) -#if defined(LDAP_R_COMPILE) +#if defined(LDAP_R_COMPILE) || defined(HAVE_GETHOSTBYNAME_R) && defined(HAVE_GETHOSTBYADDR_R) static char *safe_realloc( char **buf, int len ); #if !(defined(HAVE_GETHOSTBYNAME_R) && defined(HAVE_GETHOSTBYADDR_R))
