Bug#231538: libc6: illegal instruction on a 386
söndagen den 8 februari 2004 11.28 skrev Andreas Barth: You add first deb http://www.backports.org/debian stable initrd-tools module-init-tools to your apt.sources-list and dist-upgrade only modutils and initrd-tools. Afterwards, kernel, and afterwards the normal upgrade to sarge. Thank you, that worked. It is probably documented somewhere, but when you have done a dist-upgrade (which have worked before) and the machine refuses to boot up again, you are not able to read the documentation for why it happened. It would be a nice touch and user-friendly that when the libc6 (or whatever) is installed, and is going to render the whole system unusable, you at least are given a warning.

So why do you want to display _only_ city name? Ideally i would like the setting i found in older unixes: it require to just write the standad time offset from gmt and the rules for summer time changes ... so absolutely language correct, and accomodating occasional changes in summer time rules ! Timezone reflects the time data of country/region. Look at timezone data. You find the pair of both offset and summer time is not enough to describe the regional timezone data in detail. And still I don't find what your problem is. If you wish you want to use time offset and summer time changes, go back to old good days.

A question on debugging libraries
Hi,
I'm not sure if this is a bug or something I have misunderstood about
the debugging libraries. I want to show an example of debugging a
libc call, so just simply overflowed a buffer with strcpy.
---
#include stdio.h
#include string.h
char *b = A long string;
int main(void)
{
char a[1];
strcpy(a, b);
}
---
Which when I run on i386 under GDB with LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/debug
I get

I don't belive the strcpy has been inlined, for example it shows up in ltrace

I would have expected that this would give me a good backtrace. Is

So you generated a crash by overwriting the stack; naturally we can not backtrace. #0 0x74732067 in ?? () #1 0x676e6972 in ??

Bug#231538: libc6: illegal instruction on a 386
söndagen den 8 februari 2004 11.28 skrev Andreas Barth: You add first deb http://www.backports.org/debian stable initrd-tools module-init-tools to your apt.sources-list and dist-upgrade only modutils and initrd-tools. Afterwards, kernel, and afterwards the normal upgrade to sarge. Thank you, that worked. It is probably documented somewhere, but when you have done a dist-upgrade (which have worked before) and the machine refuses to boot up again, you are not able to read the documentation for why it happened. It would be a nice touch and user-friendly that when the libc6 (or whatever) is installed, and is going to render the whole system unusable, you at least are given a warning. Karolina

Since I fixed it two people have complained that they don't link having the index in the top texinfo menu. Want to see it? Just type 'info' and page down a bit. After thinking about it, I suppose they're probably right. We should find something else to do with dir-add.info than add it to this list. Oops. Daniel, thanks, good point.

A question on debugging libraries
Hi,
I'm not sure if this is a bug or something I have misunderstood about
the debugging libraries. I want to show an example of debugging a
libc call, so just simply overflowed a buffer with strcpy.
---
#include stdio.h
#include string.h
char *b = A long string;
int main(void)
{
char a[1];
strcpy(a, b);
}
---
Which when I run on i386 under GDB with LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/debug
I get
--- gdb output on i386 ---
$ gcc -g -o test test.c
$ echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/usr/lib/debug
$ gdb ./test
GNU gdb 6.0 (etc)

I don't belive the strcpy has been inlined, for example it shows up in ltrace
$ ltrace ./test

strcpy(0xb9b7, A long string) = 0xb9b7

I would have expected that this would give me a good backtrace. Is
this wrong?

So you generated a crash by overwriting the stack; naturally we can not backtrace. #0 0x74732067 in ?? () #1 0x676e6972 in ??

doh, you are of course right.
Just for the archives, don't use a stack variable and try something
like
--- new program ---
#include stdio.h
#include string.h
char *b = A long string;
char *a;
int main(void)
{
strcpy(a, b);
