gdb/debuginfod: cleanup debuginfod earlier
|
|
|
|
A GDB crash was discovered on Fedora GDB that was tracked back to an
|
|
issue with the way that debuginfod is cleaned up.
|
|
|
|
The bug was reported on Fedora 37, 38, and 39. Here are the steps to
|
|
reproduce:
|
|
|
|
1. The file /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf contains the following lines:
|
|
|
|
[provider_sect]
|
|
default = default_sect
|
|
##legacy = legacy_sect
|
|
##
|
|
[default_sect]
|
|
activate = 1
|
|
|
|
##[legacy_sect]
|
|
##activate = 1
|
|
|
|
The bug will occur when the '##' characters are removed so that the
|
|
lines in question look like this:
|
|
|
|
[provider_sect]
|
|
default = default_sect
|
|
legacy = legacy_sect
|
|
|
|
[default_sect]
|
|
activate = 1
|
|
|
|
[legacy_sect]
|
|
activate = 1
|
|
|
|
2. Clean up any existing debuginfod cache data:
|
|
|
|
> rm -rf $HOME/.cache/debuginfod_client
|
|
|
|
3. Run GDB:
|
|
|
|
> gdb -nx -q -iex 'set trace-commands on' \
|
|
-iex 'set debuginfod enabled on' \
|
|
-iex 'set confirm off' \
|
|
-ex 'start' -ex 'quit' /bin/ls
|
|
+set debuginfod enabled on
|
|
+set confirm off
|
|
Reading symbols from /bin/ls...
|
|
Downloading separate debug info for /usr/bin/ls
|
|
... snip ...
|
|
Temporary breakpoint 1, main (argc=1, argv=0x7fffffffde38) at ../src/ls.c:1646
|
|
1646 {
|
|
+quit
|
|
|
|
Fatal signal: Segmentation fault
|
|
----- Backtrace -----
|
|
... snip ...
|
|
|
|
So GDB ends up crashing during exit.
|
|
|
|
What's happening is that when debuginfod is initialised
|
|
debuginfod_begin is called (this is in the debuginfod library), this
|
|
in turn sets up libcurl, which makes use of openssl. Somewhere during
|
|
this setup process an at_exit function is registered to cleanup some
|
|
state.
|
|
|
|
Back in GDB the debuginfod_client object is managed using this code:
|
|
|
|
/* Deleter for a debuginfod_client. */
|
|
|
|
struct debuginfod_client_deleter
|
|
{
|
|
void operator() (debuginfod_client *c)
|
|
{
|
|
debuginfod_end (c);
|
|
}
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
using debuginfod_client_up
|
|
= std::unique_ptr<debuginfod_client, debuginfod_client_deleter>;
|
|
|
|
And then a global debuginfod_client_up is created to hold a pointer to
|
|
the debuginfod_client object. As a global this will be cleaned up
|
|
using the standard C++ global object destructor mechanism, which is
|
|
run after the at_exit handlers.
|
|
|
|
However, it is expected that when debuginfod_end is called the
|
|
debuginfod_client object will still be in a usable state, that is, we
|
|
don't expect the at_exit handlers to have run and started cleaning up
|
|
the library state.
|
|
|
|
To fix this issue we need to ensure that debuginfod_end is called
|
|
before the at_exit handlers have a chance to run.
|
|
|
|
This commit removes the debuginfod_client_up type, and instead has GDB
|
|
hold a raw pointer to the debuginfod_client object. We then make use
|
|
of GDB's make_final_cleanup to register a function that will call
|
|
debuginfod_end.
|
|
|
|
As GDB's final cleanups are called before exit is called, this means
|
|
that debuginfod_end will be called before the at_exit handlers are
|
|
called, and the crash identified above is resolved.
|
|
|
|
It's not obvious how this issue can easily be tested for. The bug does
|
|
not appear to manifest when using a local debuginfod server, so we'd
|
|
need to setup something more involved. For now I'm proposing this
|
|
patch without any associated tests.
