Subject: bug#32083: 26.1.50; temacs bootstrap execs itself forever on alpha-unknown-linux-gnu
Date: Sat, 7 Jul 2018 17:28:22 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <23360.56342.941119.625335@a1i15.kph.uni-mainz.de> (raw)
Forwarding Gentoo bug https://bugs.gentoo.org/660448:
Tobias Klausmann has reported a problem with building Emacs 26.1 on an
Alpha machine under GNU/Linux:
make -C ../lisp update-subdirs
make[2]: Entering directory '/space/portage-tmp/portage/app-editors/emacs-26.1/work/emacs-26.1/lisp'
for file in . ./calc ./calendar ./emacs-lisp ./emulation ./erc ./eshell ./gnus ./image ./international ./language ./mail ./mh-e ./net ./nxml ./obsolete ./org ./play ./progmodes ./term ./textmodes ./url ./vc; do \
./../build-aux/update-subdirs $file; \
done;
make[2]: Leaving directory '/space/portage-tmp/portage/app-editors/emacs-26.1/work/emacs-26.1/lisp'
./temacs --batch --load loadup bootstrap
[Build aborted with C-c after waiting for a long time.]
Seemingly temacs hangs there indefinitely, but gdb shows that it is
executing itself forever:
(gdb) run

0x00000200000010f0 in ?? () from /lib/ld-linux.so.2
Setting a breakpoint in disable_address_randomization() shows the
following values:
pers = 0
desired_pers = 262144
personality(desired_pers) = 0
personality(0xffffffff) = 262144
So apparently, setting the persona to ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE succeeds?
However, after the execvp, the above values are the same as before
again (especially pers = 0).
Git bisecting shows that the problem was introduced by this commit:
commit e95b023163e96538b15f030b7176b7ec59cf86f5

Port to glibc 2.24 (pre-release) + ppc64
Inspired by a suggestion by Florian Weimer in:
https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-07/msg00425.html
* configure.ac (HAVE_PERSONALITY_ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE):
Rename from HAVE_PERSONALITY_LINUX32, and check for
ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE (the crucial thing) instead of for LINUX32.
All uses changed.
* src/emacs.c (main) [HAVE_PERSONALITY_ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE]:
Use ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE from personality.h rather than inventing the
flag ourselves. Just set that flag, rather than also setting the
persona. When doing it, avoid functions like putenv that may
allocate memory.
