Description Yann Droneaud 2019-05-29 15:20:13 UTC
Description of problem:

    report_uReport exit with error when processing a coredump generated by a statically linked executable, being position independant (PIE) or not.

Steps to Reproduce:

    $ cat > abort.c
    #include <stdlib.h>

    int main(void) { abort(); return 1; }

    $ gcc -Og -g -static abort.c -o abort
    $ gcc -Og -g -static-pie abort.c -o abort-pie

    $ file ./abort
    ./abort: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (GNU/Linux), statically linked, for GNU/Linux 3.2.0, BuildID[sha1]=63a6e28516a8fa847aec086bb382025cc258cf7a, with debug_info, not stripped, too many notes (256)

    $ file ./abort-pie
    ./abort-pie: ELF 64-bit LSB pie executable, x86-64, version 1 (GNU/Linux), dynamically linked, for GNU/Linux 3.2.0, BuildID[sha1]=7f798824b25ca3a89ce016213c4755c43719fc36, with debug_info, not stripped, too many notes (256)

    $ ldd ./abort
            not a dynamic executable

    $ ldd ./abort-pie
            statically linked

    $ ./abort
    Aborted (core dumped)

    $ abrt-cli list | head
    id 9957feee1593fd6dae07a0056670683887b475ec
    reason:         abort killed by SIGABRT
    time:           Wed May 29 16:58:55 2019
    cmdline:        ./abort

    $ abrt-cli report 9957feee1593fd6dae07a0056670683887b475ec
    Error: No segments found in coredump './coredump'
    ('report_uReport' exited with 1)

    $ ./abort-pie 
    Aborted (core dumped)

    Directory:      /var/spool/abrt/ccpp-2019-05-29-16:48:57.169956-23666

    $ abrt-cli report f71fbd7742601f9609a0035115494a8920712bb9
    Error: No segments found in coredump './coredump'
    ('report_uReport' exited with 1)


Actual results:

    No report can be sent to bugzilla through ABRT.

Expected results:

    Being able to report a crash in ldconfig (see bug #1609351).

Comments:

    coredumpctl is able to process the coredump and print a backtrace:

    $ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/foo/'$LIB' ldconfig
    Segmentation fault (core dumped)

    $ coredumpctl info ldconfig 
    [...]
      Command Line: ldconfig
        Executable: /usr/sbin/ldconfig

    But abrt-cli cannot report it:

Comment 1 Yann Droneaud 2019-05-29 17:00:22 UTC
I've traced the origin of the error message in libsatyr.so.3.0.0.

More specificaly in lib/core_unwind.c:open_coredump():

    if (!head)
    {
        if (error_msg && !*error_msg)
            set_error("No segments found in coredump '%s'", elf_file);
        goto fail_dwfl;
    }

See https://github.com/abrt/satyr/blob/44f748634560846a440ff46e9eb32e884a118a2e/lib/core_unwind.c#L203

Comment 2 Ben Cotton 2020-04-30 20:17:39 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 30 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 30 on 2020-05-26.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a
Fedora 'version' of '30'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 30 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 3 Ben Cotton 2020-11-03 17:17:19 UTC

Still applicable with Fedora 32

Comment 6 Ben Cotton 2021-11-30 17:13:25 UTC
Fedora 33 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2021-11-30. Fedora 33 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
