Sourceware 23293 0 P2 UNCONFIRMED aarch64: getauxval is broken when run as ld.so ./exe and ld.so adjusts argv on the stack 2022-05-04 09:56:19 UTC

Description Florian Weimer 2022-05-04 09:56:19 UTC 
The new ld.so command does not work reliably on aarch64 because of an upstream bug in argv adjustment.

(Among the current RHEL architectures, only aarch64 is affected.)
Comment 4 Florian Weimer 2022-06-13 08:38:48 UTC 
After reconsidering, I'm closing this bug as WONTFIX for now. If there is actual application impact, we can revisit this issue and re-consider fixing it in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.
