Subject: [patch] Fix crash in svr4_clear_so
Date: Tue, 21 May 2013 22:23:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <ye6qa9no55vu.fsf@elbrus2.mtv.corp.google.com> (raw)
Greetings,
Using current trunk, I've got a GDB core dump when I tried to analyze
mis-matched binary and core:
gdb a.out core
GNU gdb (GDB) 7.6.50.20130521-cvs
...
warning: core file may not match specified executable file.
[New LWP 29265]
...
[New LWP 27085]
[New LWP 27052]
warning: Error reading shared library list entry at 0x3b48104f8b480000
Segmentation fault
The actual crash is happening here:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Attached patch fixes the GDB crash.
Ok for trunk?
Thanks,
