Subject: [Bug libc/15765] New: sem_open is wrongly a cancellation point
Date: Sat, 20 Jul 2013 17:17:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <bug-15765-131@http.sourceware.org/bugzilla/> (raw)

http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15765

            Bug ID: 15765
           Summary: sem_open is wrongly a cancellation point
           Product: glibc
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: libc
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: bugdal at aerifal dot cx

Created attachment 7111
  --> http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=7111&action=edit
test demonstrating the bug

sem_open uses functions which are cancellation points and makes no effort to
block cancellation. Even if it were permitted to be cancellable, its current
usage of these functions would lead to resource-leak race conditions. Test
program demonstrating the bug is attached.
