"Old applications should still run on new servers." - yes, unless they are buggy, which is the case of your product (or some .a library it links in, cannot tell). The above error is a result of not including <errno.h> when errno is used, Declaring it byhand is wrong, since errno is allowed to be a macro (and it is in glibc for the last 7 years). You can work around the bug by setting LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1 in the environment, which will mean NPTL libc+libpthread will not be used (for them it is impossible to provide errno). Only applications linked against glibc 2.0.x may legally reference errno symbol (non-versioned), but that is handled by the dynamic linker automatically (by not using NPTL). |
Description of problem: I am participating in the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 early access program. When I try to install one of our products I got the error: /data/aduran/41/11023/instdir/bin/linux-ix86/wserver_cli: relocation error: /data/aduran/41/11023/instdir/iblib/linux-ix86/libtas272b.so: symbol errno, version GLIBC_2.0 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference Our product was build on Red Hat 6.2 and it installs and runs fine in many other releases of Red Hat but not in this new release (RH ES 3.0). Looking at both libraries involved here I see the following: nm /data/aduran/41/11023/instdir/iblib/linux-ix86/libtas272b.so | grep errno U errno@@GLIBC_2.0 U __errno_location@@GLIBC_2.0 U oerrno_to_exid U o_get_errno ls -l /lib/libc.so.6 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Apr 15 12:16 /lib/libc.so.6 -> libc- 2.3.2.so readelf -s /lib/libc.so.6 | grep errno | grep OBJECT 1036: 00136f40 4 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 27 _errno 1164: 00136f40 4 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 27 errno 1746: 00138b04 4 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 27 h_errno 2142: 00138b04 4 OBJECT WEAK DEFAULT 27 _h_errno 7492: 00136f40 4 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 27 _errno 7620: 00136f40 4 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 27 errno 8202: 00138b04 4 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 27 h_errno 8598: 00138b04 4 OBJECT WEAK DEFAULT 27 _h_errno The same library from Red Hat 8.0 shows: ls -l /lib/libc.so.6 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 Feb 20 05:50 /lib/libc.so.6 -> libc- 2.2.93.so readelf -s /lib/libc.so.6 | grep errno | grep OBJECT 294: 0012932c 4 OBJECT WEAK DEFAULT 16 _h_errno@@GLIBC_2.0 341: 0012d6e0 4 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 24 errno@@GLIBC_2.0 888: 0012932c 4 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 16 h_errno@@GLIBC_2.0 1913: 0012d6e0 4 OBJECT GLOBAL DEFAULT 24 _errno@@GLIBC_2.0 This is a bug becuase old products will not be able to run on this release. you can contact me at: aduran.com Thanks aldo Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1.Create a program that uses errno in a Red Hat 6.2 2.Install and run the program on RH ES 3.0 3. Actual results: Expected results: Old applications should still run on new servers. Additional info:
