--- Begin Message ---Package: gnu-fdisk Version: 1.2.5-2 Severity: important The following procedure reproducibly segfaults cfdisk for me: 1. cfdisk /dev/sdd * note: /dev/sdd is a 3 TB disk with no partition table 2. When prompted on whether to create partition table, choose Create 3. Choose msdos disk label type 4. Choose New->Primary->Begining (yes, there's a typo there) 5. Enter 15GB for the new partition size, ext4 for type 6. In the free space, choose New->Primary->End, 1TB, ext4 Now the disk looks as follows: ------------------------------------------------------------ Number Flags Part Type Filesystem Label Size 1 Primary ext4 15003MB Pri/Ext Free space 1985591MB 2 Primary ext4 999997MB ------------------------------------------------------------ 7. In the "Free space" area, choose New->Extended->Begining 8. Press Enter to accept the offered size of 1985591MB Expected result: 9. cfdisk does not crash, proceeds to create the partition Actual result: 9. cfdisk segfaults in query_part_position() Here's a GDB log that indicates the problem is in the variable "range" being NULL. Note that to reproduce this, you need to compile gnu-fdisk with debug symbols, for which you will first need to fix it to build (#741767; I'll send a patch for that). ------------------------------------------------------------ Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. query_part_position (prompt=0x412a78 "Where do you want to put the partition", context=0x618ac0 <part_position.6684>, pos=0x7fffffffe490, first=29302560, last=3907409624, dev=0x61b150, constraint=0x0, opts=0x7fffffffe470) at common.c:817 817 fuzzify(pos->start.range, dev, NULL, (gdb) bt #0 query_part_position (prompt=0x412a78 "Where do you want to put the partition", context=0x618ac0 <part_position.6684>, pos=0x7fffffffe490, first=29302560, last=3907409624, dev=0x61b150, constraint=0x0, opts=0x7fffffffe470) at common.c:817 #1 0x0000000000406490 in do_new (c=0x66c640, part=0x7fffffffe568) at cfdisk.c:1160 #2 0x00000000004096a1 in main_plist (c=0x66c640, part=0x7fffffffe568, key=110) at cfdisk.c:2144 #3 0x0000000000409b76 in do_plist (c=0x66c640, part=0x0, have=PED_PARTITION_NORMAL, havent=PED_PARTITION_NORMAL) at cfdisk.c:2325 #4 0x000000000040a803 in do_ui (devname=0x7fffffffe925 "/dev/sdd", dev=0x61b150) at cfdisk.c:2534 #5 0x000000000040abd5 in main (argc=2, argv=0x7fffffffe6e8) at cfdisk.c:2637 (gdb) l 812 /* If UI_SNAP_TO_START isn't true, add fuzz to the 813 * start, otherwise don't. 814 */ 815 pos->start.range = ped_geometry_new(dev, pos->start.sector, 1); 816 if (!(*opts & UI_SNAP_TO_START)) 817 fuzzify(pos->start.range, dev, NULL, 818 range->length, range->length); 819 820 /* Desired: end = start+length-1LL */ 821 pos->end.sector = length; (gdb) print pos $1 = (PartPos *) 0x7fffffffe490 (gdb) print dev $2 = (PedDevice *) 0x61b150 (gdb) print range $3 = (PedGeometry *) 0x0 (gdb) ------------------------------------------------------------ Sami -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.14.0 (SMP w/8 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fi_FI.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages gnu-fdisk depends on: ii dpkg 1.17.6 ii install-info 5.2.0.dfsg.1-2 ii libc6 2.18-4 ii libncurses5 5.9+20140118-1 ii libparted0debian1 2.3-19 ii libreadline6 6.3-6 ii libtinfo5 5.9+20140118-1 ii libuuid1 2.20.1-5.7 gnu-fdisk recommends no packages. gnu-fdisk suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
