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.

Sourceware 25232 0 P2 RESOLVED <string.h> does not enable const correctness for strchr et al. for Clang++ 2020-10-13 08:19:39 UTC

Description Carlos O'Donell 2019-12-17 15:57:22 UTC
We want to backport this into rhel-8.3 for fixing header usage with clang.

commit 953ceff17a4a15b10cfdd5edc3c8cae4884c8ec3
Author: Kamlesh Kumar <kamleshbhalui>

    <string.h>: Define __CORRECT_ISO_CPP_STRING_H_PROTO for Clang [BZ #25232]
    
    Without the asm redirects, strchr et al. are not const-correct.
    
    libc++ has a wrapper header that works with and without
    __CORRECT_ISO_CPP_STRING_H_PROTO (using a Clang extension).  But when
    Clang is used with libstdc++ or just C headers, the overloaded functions
    with the correct types are not declared.
    
    This change does not impact current GCC (with libstdc++ or libc++).

Comment 3 Sergey Kolosov 2020-09-07 11:22:24 UTC
Verified, the bug was reproduced in glibc-2.28-104.el8 and it has been fixed in glibc-2.28-105.el8.
