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 Florian Weimer 2017-12-31 16:26:42 UTC 
glibc-2.17-220.el7.i686 has incorrect unwind information in /lib/libpthread.so.0:

There is a DW_CFA_restore for r6 (esi) at offset d5b5 (claiming that the register has the same value in the caller), but the register is overwritten at offset d5c9, so that the unwinder does not restore the original register value.

A simple recompilation of glibc should suffice to address this once bug 1529981 in gcc is fixed.
Comment 2 Florian Weimer 2017-12-31 19:02:54 UTC 
Presence of the bug confirmed in glibc-2.17-220.el7.i686:

$ build/tst-thread-exit-clobber 
info: unsigned int, direct pthread_exit call
tests/tst-thread-exit-clobber.cc:80: numeric comparison failure
   left: 4148288912 (0xf741dd90); from: value
  right: 1600833940 (0x5f6ac994); from: magic_values.v2
info: double, direct pthread_exit call
info: unsigned int, indirect pthread_exit call
info: double, indirect pthread_exit call
error: 1 test failures
Comment 3 Florian Weimer 2018-01-11 15:51:31 UTC 
We should backport the upstream test for this:

commit 579396ee082565ab5f42ff166a264891223b7b82
Author: Florian Weimer <fweimer>
Date:   Mon Jan 8 14:57:25 2018 +0100

    nptl: Add test for callee-saved register restore in pthread_exit

Also depends on a support/ update (we should just rebase):

commit dabd75b6a1180c2ca6a6f966f08cc00e8e72cce9
Author: Florian Weimer <fweimer>
Date:   Mon Jan 8 14:39:51 2018 +0100

    support: Define support_static_assert for use with C and C++
    
    And update TEST_COMPARE to use it, to make it usable from C++.
