Seems to be a compiler or linker problem. The glibc code is correct. The failing line is sysdeps/posix/tempname.c:252 if (len < 6 || strcmp (&tmpl[len - 6], "XXXXXX")) more specifically the strcmp call.. [len < 6] 0x8059f22 <__gen_tempname+46>: repnz scas %es:(%edi),%al 0x8059f24 <__gen_tempname+48>: not %ecx 0x8059f26 <__gen_tempname+50>: lea 0xffffffff(%ecx),%eax 0x8059f29 <__gen_tempname+53>: cmp $0x5,%eax [so far everything OK..] 0x8059f2c <__gen_tempname+56>: jle 0x8059f4d <__gen_tempname+89> [strcmp(...)] 0x8059f2e <__gen_tempname+58>: mov 0x8(%ebp),%edx 0x8059f31 <__gen_tempname+61>: lea 0xfffffffa(%eax,%edx,1),%ebx 0x8059f35 <__gen_tempname+65>: mov %ebx,%esi [so far fine.. esi points to the last 6 characters of tmpl] 0x8059f37 <__gen_tempname+67>: mov $0x809ce49,%edi [oops.. what happened here.. $0x809ce49 ougt to be the address of the "XXXXXX" string constant, but the value is " medium type".] 0x8059f3c <__gen_tempname+72>: mov $0x7,%ecx 0x8059f41 <__gen_tempname+77>: repz cmpsb %es:(%edi),%ds:(%esi) 0x8059f43 <__gen_tempname+79>: seta %dl Looking closer... extracting tempname.o from libc.a. The above reference is 0x21 in .rodata.str.1.1, which correcly is "XXXXXX", so this seems to be some kind of problem with binutils, not glibc. I am currently using binutils-2.11.90.0.8-12 (the current RedHat-7.2 version). Will now try your current version of binutils. Works just fine. Sorry for wasting your time. To help others who incrementally upgrade their development system you might want to consider making glibc-devel-2.2.5 require a new version of binutils. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.78 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.16-0.4custom i686) Description of problem: mkstemp always fails with "errno: 22 (Invalid argument)" on statically linked applications. Dynamically linked applications work just fine Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: ---- test program ---- #include <stdlib.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <errno.h> #include <string.h> main() { char tmp[256] = "/tmp/test-XXXXXX"; int fd = mkstemp(tmp); printf("FD: %d errno: %d (%s)\n", fd, errno, strerror(errno)); } --- end --- gcc -static test.c ./a.out Actual Results: FD: -1 errno: 22 (Invalid argument) Expected Results: FD: 3 errno: 0 (Success) this is also the result seen if the program is linked dynamically gcc test.c ./a.out Additional info: I were previosly running another rawhide version 2.2.90-something. There the problem was not seen. The problem started after upgrading to 2.2.5-something, but I did not realise statically linked mkstemp was the culpit until today after upgrading to 2.2.5-34.
