Description James Washer 2009-02-09 03:05:28 UTC

Description of problem:
Attempting to execute eu-unstrip

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
elfutils-0.137-3.el5

How reproducible:
compile the attached program dl3, and execute it with the single argument 
/lib64/libauparse.so.0.0.0 ( I just picked this lib at random to dlopen, I suspect others will have same problem)
The program with dlopen the named lib, then pause. 

Next, coredump dl3 (I type ctrl-\)

Finally run eu-unstrip -n -e ./dl3 --core=core.xxxx
and I get 

[washer@p6 dlopen-library]$ eu-unstrip -n -e dl3 --core=core.26032 
eu-unstrip: link_map.c:566: consider_executable: Assertion `m == mod' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)

  



Expected results:
A listing of the dl3 maps

Comment 4 James Washer 2009-02-09 03:11:32 UTC

Per rmcgrath's suggestion in the gdb IRC, I dowloaded elfutils 0.139 and found the same behaviour.

Comment 5 James Washer 2009-02-09 03:12:38 UTC

Per rmcgrath's suggestion, I downloaded, built, and tried elfutils 0.139. Same results, eu-unstrip core dumps.

Comment 6 Roland McGrath 2009-02-10 21:19:23 UTC

You did not attach the dl3 binary.  The binaries required are the ones you passed to eu-unstrip, which are this and the core file.

dl3 binary which generated the oginial core having been killed

Comment 8 Roland McGrath 2009-04-15 10:16:42 UTC

This is fixed upstream (and in Fedora) as of 0.140.

Comment 9 Roland McGrath 2010-04-22 00:13:30 UTC

We are unlikely to rebase elfutils in RHEL5 or bother to backport obscure fixes like this.  Reopen if you really want a RHEL5 update for this.  There are many fixes in this area upstream and the problems won't be present in RHEL6.
