            Bug ID: 26101
           Summary: Document and test ldconfig and cache search and
                    sorting behaviour.
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.32
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: dynamic-link
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: carlos at redhat dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

In ldconfig we have a specific sorting against the files listed in the search
directories. This is controlled by _dl_cache_libcmp() function. We don't
document this behaviour anywhere, and at this point it's pretty close to ABI.

We should add tests to verify _dl_cache_libcmp() behaviour.

We should document the directory list sorting behaviour so developers can know
what will get listed first.
