Subject: [Bug libc/12561] New: ld.so: dlclose() can remove required local scope elements of NODELETE linkmaps
Date: Thu, 10 Mar 2011 02:20:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <bug-12561-131@http.sourceware.org/bugzilla/> (raw)

http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12561

           Summary: ld.so: dlclose() can remove required local scope
                    elements of NODELETE linkmaps
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.13
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: libc
        AssignedTo: drepper.fsp@gmail.com
        ReportedBy: pasky@suse.cz


Created attachment 5283
  --> http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=5283
proposed patch, incl. testcase

In case a library is opened with RTLD_LOCAL, dlclose()ing that library
will remove the local scope from all subsequently loaded libraries
unconditionally, even though such a library is marked as RTLD_NODELETE.
This causes subsequent lookups within that library to fail if the
library depends on other libraries than those already loaded within
the global scope.

This has been exposed in a real-world case where libproxy opens
a KDE4 plugin with RTLD_LOCAL, the plugin depends on libkde4_core
and libkde4_core is marked as NODELETE due to having a STB_GNU_UNIQ
symbol; the plugin is dlclose()d later but ld.so raises a fatal
error when libkde4_core global destructor is called (it depends
on libqt4, but libqt4 has been in the plugin's local scope only
and is gone now).
