The voodoo1/2 were designed as add on boards so there is enough info in
the docs to boot them, and in the source tree for glide to boot them
properly. The voodoo3 glide source tree may contain enough info, its hard
to tell.

Bug#480433: libc6.1: mkdtemp on ia64 can return xa non null pointer not pointing at the template

2008-05-09 Thread Alan Bain
Package: libc6.1
Version: 2.7-10
Severity: normal

Affects IA64 only

Code like...
static char buf[20];
strcpy(buf, "/tmp/some_XX");
char * tmpname=mkdtemp(buf);

can return tmpname which is non null and for which *tmpname seg faults
because it is not a valid address i.e. it does not point at the buf.
The template will have been modified correctly to point at a unique name.
So a workaround is to add

if (!tmpname) tmpname=buf;

Bug affects latest version of f2c-20061008-1 on IA64
(to reproduce run with no arguments, call is in the set_temp_names
function)

Bug#550428: getaddrinfo: AI_CANNONAME should not do PTR lookups

2009-10-09 Thread Alan Curry
Package: libc6
Version: 2.7-18
Severity: normal


I'm reporting essentially a duplicate of this old bug:
  http://sources.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=304

That bug is marked "resolved" but it clearly isn't resolved, since
getaddrinfo() still has a __gethostbyaddr_r() call in it (see
sysdeps/posix/getaddrinfo.c). This bug isn't resolved until that code is
dead! As far as I can tell, that code is still present in the newest glibc
and eglibc too.

Here's a little demonstration, with actual DNS records that exist today:

mail.gnu.org.   300 IN  A   199.232.76.166
166.76.232.199.in-addr.arpa. 23360 IN   CNAME   rev-c76-166.gnu.org.
rev-c76-166.gnu.org.300 IN  PTR mail.gnu.org.
rev-c76-166.gnu.org.300 IN  PTR mx10.gnu.org.
mx10.gnu.org.   300 IN  A   199.232.76.166

mail.gnu.org does not have a CNAME record. If you ask for the canonical name
of mail.gnu.org, the correct answer is mail.gnu.org. But glibc does a reverse
lookup, picks one of the PTRs at not-quite-random, and half the time you get
mx10.gnu.org instead:

$ cat canon.c
#include 
#include 
#include 

int main(void)
{
  struct addrinfo *res, hints={.ai_family=AF_INET, .ai_flags=AI_CANONNAME};
  int err;

  puts((err=getaddrinfo("mail.gnu.org", NULL, &hints, &res)) ?
   gai_strerror(err) : res->ai_canonname);
  return err;
}
$ cc canon.c -o canon
$ ./canon
mx10.gnu.org
$ ./canon
mail.gnu.org
$ ./canon
mx10.gnu.org

Neither mx10.gnu.org nor mail.gnu.org is the canonical name of the other. No
such relationship exists between those 2 names, and no such relationship can
ever be implied by any PTR records. glibc's behavior is completely bogus.

I believe a correct fix would be to reduce that entire block containing the
__gethostbyaddr_r() call to just these 2 lines:
  if (canon == NULL)
canon = orig_name;

But there's a sign that may not be enough. Each time I run the demo program
above, it generates the bogus PTR query twice. I wonder if removing the
__gethostbyaddr_r will take care of both of them, or if there's a similar bug
in the nss_dns module.

I haven't made much of an effort to find out what _dl_prof_resolve is
supposed to do, but I did notice that it's defined in
sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc32/dl-trampoline.S, inside #ifndef PROF, which makes
me wonder, is that backwards? A function with "prof" in its name, that's
defined everywhere but the profiling library? Could I fix this by taking the
'n' out of #ifndef?

Bug#403709: nss_compat: infinite retrying of read errors

2006-12-19 Thread Alan Curry
Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.2.ds1-22sarge4
Severity: minor

Due to a recent power failure, my /etc/shadow file morphed into a directory.
You can probably guess that this made it difficult to log in. You might not
guess the symptom: instead of reporting an authentication failure in the
normal way, any attempt to log in causes a long pause with lots of disk
activity. That's because getspnam() gets stuck in an infinite loop allocating
memory and ends up swapping. No one expected the Spanish Inquisition^W^W^W^H
an EISDIR on /etc/shadow.

After poking around the source a bit, and recreating the incident in a
chroot, I suspect but haven't proven that the cause is in
compat-spwd.c:getspent_next_file which returns NSS_STATUS_TRYAGAIN in case of
read error. What exactly is NSS_STATUS_TRYAGAIN supposed to mean? Apparently
in this case it means "try again as many times as you can, as fast as you
can".

Oh, I just got an idea for another test: fgetspent. And it does the same
infinite memory-eating thing, in spite of not using NSS at all!

#include 
#include 

int main(void)
{
  FILE *fp;
  struct spwd *sp;
  fp=fopen(".", "r");
  if(!fp) {
perror("fopen(.)");
return 1;
  }
  sp=fgetspent(fp);
  return 0;
}

Also bombs with fgetpwent and fgetgrent. I suspect it'll do the same with any
read error, not just EISDIR. They all get translated to ERANGE for some
reason, which is then taken as meaning "You need to malloc some more and try
again". Ouch.

nss_files seems to be the only one who got this right.

Changing thread limits in glibc

I am trying to increase the thread limits on my machine to accomodate
a java application. I am doing this while following the instructions on

STACK_SIZE and PTHREAD_THREADS_MAX in the glibc source. I have done
an "apt-get source libc6" in order to pull everythng down. I have edited
the header files a couple of times and then tried to re-build the package
with "dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -us" only to get the following

Every elf_machine_rel*_relative function is declared "static inline".
They're all small functions.  Therefore, gcc will inline them, and
unused parameters will be optimised away.  This is not just an idle
claim.  x86 ld.so built using current gcc has zero differences in
generated code after the hppa patch is applied, with the exception of
a couple of assert line numbers.

Can you show even one architecture where ld.so will "run slower"?

It may be possible to redesign the relocations, or at least the
hppa dl-machine.h code, but I don't have time and I think the approach
used in the patch is the cleanest available.  eg. another approach
would be to add the load address to the ltp entry, but RELA targets
shouldn't be reading section contents.  This would also require a
binutils change as ld currently leaves the field zero.

I'll also note that the patch as it stands should be rejected for
another reason, and that is that it isn't complete.  eg. I needed to
patch sysdeps/i386/dl-machine.h elf_machine_rela_relative to add the
extra param.

Not really.  This macro is only used in one place, and "relative" is
in scope where the macro is expanded.

gcc uses i486 scheduling because that gives best performance

The situation is as follows

gcc "i686" definition is wrong. The gcc people wont fix it because the 686
definition without cmov is mostly useless anyway.

The C3 is a model 6 cpu, the kernel reports it correctly and wont change

Non Debian packaging systems know how to handle this and regard cmov as
a mandatory CPU attribute for 686 package install. Ugly but works.

You want i486 scheduling for the C3 from testing so far. I've been talking

Bug#774118: libc6:amd64: strspn generates compiler warning

2014-12-28 Thread Alan W. Irwin
Package: libc6
Version: 2.13-38+deb7u4
Severity: normal

A compiler warning message is generated by the following
test code and compiler options.

irwin@raven> cat >test_strspn.c
#include 
#include 
int
main(void) {
  strcmp("  8998797857586fasdfljf", " ");
  strspn("  8998797857586fasdfljf", " ");
  strcspn("  8998797857586fasdfljf", " ");

test_strspn.c: In function ‘main’:
test_strspn.c:6:3: warning: conversion to ‘long unsigned int’ from
‘int’ may change the sign of the result [-Wsign-conversion]

Note the warning message only occurs for line 6, and does not occur
for the very similar line 5 and line 7.  In particular, strcspn has
the exact same return type, argument types, and number of arguments as
strspn, yet strspn generates the warning while strcspn does not.
Therefore, I am pretty sure this warning is due to some difference in
how the strspn and strcspn arguments or returns are defined in libc6
when those should be absolutely identical between the two functions.
That difference (as well as the warning itself about transformation
from int to long unsigned int) is a cause for concern about the
reliability of strspn.  So I hope to see vigorous follow up.

Bug#774118: Additional information

2014-12-28 Thread Alan W. Irwin

Apparently, this bug has already been fixed with a two-line patch in
the upstream git version of glibc (see 
<http://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=commit;h=1a4b75a190006bb013a61f2031a4de86e93a629f).


So if this fix has not already been propagated to the Debian unstable
version of libc please apply it.

This problem is actually fixed in Jessie.  So I'm closing the bug
report.


Hi Bastian:

Thanks for that further investigation, and I am glad to hear that once
I update to Jessie, I will no longer be seeing these compiler warning
messages each time I build one of the libraries for the timeephem
software project.
