Subject: [PATCH] Fix copy of filename in bfd's filename field
Date: Fri, 03 Jan 2014 12:59:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1388753936-2835-1-git-send-email-emachado@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
Hi,
in my recent tests, upstream gdb was crashing with the following:
$ ./gdb ./testsuite/gdb.base/break -q -ex run
Reading symbols from ./testsuite/gdb.base/break...done.
Starting program:
/home/emachado/devel/gdb/binutils-gdb.git/build/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/break
*** glibc detected *** ./gdb: double free or corruption (out): 0x088efc80 ***
======= Backtrace: =========
/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6(+0x75ee2)[0xb72c9ee2]
./gdb[0x83583e9]
./gdb(bfd_close+0x99)[0x8358c81]
./gdb[0x821ba50]
...
It was caused by this commit 1be509 on binutils code
(https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils-cvs/2014-01/msg00003.html)
which is now using xstrdup to store a copy of filename in bfd struct.
The patch below fixes this problem on gdb side. Ok?
Thanks,
