Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Krzysztof Nienartowicz 2016-03-21 23:29:10 UTC
Description of problem:

When adding -lfto and --enable-debug parameter to Postgres 9.5 configure, gcc segfaults while linking.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Redhat 7.2
gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
COLLECT_GCC=/bin/gcc
COLLECT_LTO_WRAPPER=/usr/libexec/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.8.5/lto-wrapper
Target: x86_64-redhat-linux
Configured with: ../configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --with-bugurl=http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla --enable-bootstrap --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix --enable-checking=release --with-system-zlib --enable-__cxa_atexit --disable-libunwind-exceptions --enable-gnu-unique-object --enable-linker-build-id --with-linker-hash-style=gnu --enable-languages=c,c++,objc,obj-c++,java,fortran,ada,go,lto --enable-plugin --enable-initfini-array --disable-libgcj --with-isl=/builddir/build/BUILD/gcc-4.8.5-20150702/obj-x86_64-redhat-linux/isl-install --with-cloog=/builddir/build/BUILD/gcc-4.8.5-20150702/obj-x86_64-redhat-linux/cloog-install --enable-gnu-indirect-function --with-tune=generic --with-arch_32=x86-64 --build=x86_64-redhat-linux
Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.8.5 20150623 (Red Hat 4.8.5-4) (GCC)


How reproducible:

Just add flto switch to Postgres configure 

Steps to Reproduce:
1.git clone https://github.com/postgres/postgres.git postgres-REL9_5_0
2.cd postgres-REL9_5_0
2.git checkout REL9_5_0
3. ./configure '--with-libxml' '--with-libxslt' '--prefix=$HOME/pg95' '--with-segsize=8' '--with-blocksize=16' '--with-wal-segsize=64' '--with-wal-blocksize=16' '--with-ldap' 'CC=ccache gcc' --with-python CFLAGS="-O3 -march=native -flto" --enable-debug

Actual results:
ccache gcc -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Wdeclaration-after-statement -Wendif-labels -Wmissing-format-attribute -Wformat-security -fno-strict-aliasing -fwrapv -fexcess-precision=standard -g -O3 -march=native -flto -L../../src/port -L../../src/common -Wl

Comment 2 Jakub Jelinek 2016-03-22 08:01:27 UTC
In gcc 4.7/4.8/4.9 you certainly shouldn't mix -flto with -g, that has lots of known bugs.  If you need debug info, don't use LTO.
In gcc 5/6 this got somewhat better, but still the debug info quality is worse than when not using LTO.  There are plans to deal with this for gcc 7.
