Subject: [PATCH 1/2] BUILD: threads: better workaround for late loading of
libgcc_s
Commit 77b98220e ("BUG/MINOR: threads: work around a libgcc_s issue with
chrooting") tried to address an issue with libgcc_s being loaded too late.
But it turns out that the symbol used there isn't present on armhf, thus
it breaks the build.
Given that the issue manifests itself during pthread_exit(), the safest
and most portable way to test this is to call pthread_exit(). For this
we create a dummy thread which exits, during the early boot. This results
in the relevant library to be loaded if needed, making sure that a later
call to pthread_exit() will still work. It was tested to work fine under
linux on the following platforms:
glibc:
- armhf
- aarch64
- x86_64
- sparc64
- ppc64le
musl:
- mipsel
Just running the code under strace easily shows the call in the dummy
thread, for example here on armhf:
$ strace -fe trace=file ./haproxy -v 2>&1 | grep gcc_s
[pid 23055] open("/lib/libgcc_s.so.1", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = 3
The code was isolated so that it's easy to #ifdef it out if needed.
This should be backported where the patch above is backported (likely
2.0).
(cherry picked from commit f734ebfac4c406f245347527bd0e5831a251cc61)
