So, it isn't the ld-linux.so, it is the kernel on 32 bit i386, where exec is loading PIE elf binaries in such a way that the heap and the stack are next to each other and have very little room. About 20% of /usr/bin/* (and others, like /bin/systemd) on the vivid cloud image is affected, though in many cases their memory use is too low to cause problems.
The problem was discovered in the samba test suite, which uses xsltproc to generate manpages. One of the bigger man pages caused a segfault. ** Package changed: glibc (Ubuntu) => linux (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1471029 Title: ELF programs with R_386_RELATIVE blocks are badly mapped into memory To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libxslt/+bug/1471029/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
