Hi lists,
for the buildroot mailing list: I tried to post this bug report but I
wasn't subscribed.
Below you can see my original bug report.
I did some more test and the dash source looks good, the longjmp
destination is
correct (actually it jump to main()). The problem seems the longjmp
implementation.
In the case of command like dash -c "(echo ciao; /bin/true)&" a longjmp
is not
performed and so no segfault is triggered.
as a POC I tried this little c code:
[vortex at lizard ~]$ cat longjmptest.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <setjmp.h>
static jmp_buf env1;
long int func2 () {
long int b;
b=1000;
longjmp(env1,1);
return b;
}
long int func1 () {
long int a;
a = func2 () ;
return a;
}
int main() {
long int num;
num=0;
printf("\nstart jump test\n");
if (setjmp(env1)) {
printf("jumped to env1\n");
} else {
num = func1 ();
}
printf("check 1 num=%ld\n",num);
printf("finish\n");
return 0;
}
If I compile with my stock gcc on centos 6.5 (64bit):
[vortex at lizard ~]$ gcc -Wall -static longjmptest.c
[vortex at lizard ~]$ ./a.out
start jump test
jumped to env1
check 1 num=0
finish
while if I compile with the crosscompile in buildroot (32bit):
[vortex at lizard ~]$
/data/misc/buildroot-2014.05/output/host/usr/bin/i686-buildroot-linux-uclibc-gcc
-Wall -static longjmptest.c
[vortex at lizard ~]$ ./a.out
start jump test
Segmentation fault
looks like some stack problem... I never learned to use gdb (my bad!) so
I cannot check the stack
status... Is there any known problem with the longjmp in uclibc?
thank you in advance
Luigi
