[Bug ld/12808] Segfault in _bfd_elf_merge_symbol
http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12808 Kim Taylor kmtaylor at gmx dot com changed: What|Removed |Added Status|RESOLVED|REOPENED Resolution|INVALID | --- Comment #2 from Kim Taylor kmtaylor at gmx dot com 2011-05-26 12:08:59 UTC --- (In reply to comment #1) elflink.c in 2.20.1 does not have an error in the line you show in your patch, so perhaps you or someone else applied an incorrect patch? I'm not sure what you mean by this. I'll try to explain the problem clearer: The following code has been extracted from the latest version of elflink.c - if (tdef ntdef) (*_bfd_error_handler) (_(%s: TLS definition in %B section %A mismatches non-TLS definition in %B section %A), tbfd, tsec, ntbfd, ntsec, h-root.root.string); else if (!tdef !ntdef) (*_bfd_error_handler) (_(%s: TLS reference in %B mismatches non-TLS reference in %B), tbfd, ntbfd, h-root.root.string); else if (tdef) (*_bfd_error_handler) (_(%s: TLS definition in %B section %A mismatches non-TLS reference in %B), tbfd, tsec, ntbfd, h-root.root.string); else (*_bfd_error_handler) (_(%s: TLS reference in %B mismatches non-TLS definition in %B section %A), tbfd, ntbfd, ntsec, h-root.root.string); -- There are several cases where the format descriptor does not match the supplied argument type. eg: %s: TLS definition in %B section %A mismatches non-TLS reference in %B (string) (bfd *) (asection *) (bfd *) tbfdtsec btbfd h-root.root.string (bfd *) (asection *) (bfd *) (string) -- Configure bugmail: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
[Bug ld/12808] Segfault in _bfd_elf_merge_symbol
http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12808 --- Comment #4 from Kim Taylor kmtaylor at gmx dot com 2011-05-26 13:19:33 UTC --- (In reply to comment #3) %A and %B are always processed first. Ahhh, yes you are right. %As and %Bs get caught by _bfd_default_error_handler then anything remaining gets sent to vfprintf. I missed that. The segfault occurs in the Debian binutils where the attached patch shows the first format descriptor as being incorrect. This is thus not a binutils bug but a Debian bug as Alan was saying. I will check the Debian tree.

[Bug ld/12808] New: Segfault in _bfd_elf_merge_symbol
http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12808 Summary: Segfault in _bfd_elf_merge_symbol Product: binutils Version: 2.20 Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: ld AssignedTo: unassig...@sources.redhat.com ReportedBy: kmtay...@gmx.com Created attachment 5752 -- http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=5752 Fixes bug - Error message may not be correct The wrong format string is used in calls to _bfd_default_error_handler. The attached patch fixes the one that caused a crash for me. The other calls are probably broken too. I do not know enough about what the error messages are trying to say to fix them properly. -- Configure bugmail: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
