Package: intel-gpu-tools
Version: 1.22-1
Severity: normal
With a recent libc update, the register access tools all fail like this:
Error: /usr/share/intel-gpu-tools/registers/common_display.txt:1:
('CPU_VGACNTRL', '0x00041000', '')
Error: /usr/share/intel-gpu-tools/registers/haswell:1: common_display.txt
Warning: reading '/usr/share/intel-gpu-tools/registers/haswell' failed. Using
builtin register spec.
Some gdb work tracked this down to a use-after free in the parsing code
(tools/intel_reg_spec.c)
} else if (i == 2) {
reg->addr = strtoul(p, &e, 16);
free(p);
if (*e)
ret = -1;
It seems that it "got away" with this with older libc versions, but
something changed between the libc in stretch and that in buster and now
this use-after-free reliably fails every time for me.
