Subject: [Bug libc/31068] New: sysdeps: sparc: invalid data access in memset due to regression
Date: Wed, 15 Nov 2023 09:32:23 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <bug-31068-131@http.sourceware.org/bugzilla/> (raw)

            Bug ID: 31068
           Summary: sysdeps: sparc: invalid data access in memset due to
                    regression
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.36
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: libc
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: ludwig.rydberg at gaisler dot com
                CC: drepper.fsp at gmail dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

Description:
When testing the glibc-master (2023-11-13) on sparc32 (leon) a memset
regression was observed.

The issue was introduced by commit a61933fe27df ("sparc: Remove bzero
optimization"). 

How to reproduce:
It can be reproduced running the "string/test-memset" test on sparc32.
Fail rate: 100%

Test output:
string/test-memset.test-result:
FAIL: string/test-memset
original exit status 1

string/test-memset.out:
Didn't expect signal from child: got `Segmentation fault'

Root cause:
The reason for the issue was that when moving the bzero routine to the end of
the memset, the branch jump in the end made a jump back to wrong label causing
the invalid data access.

A fix has been implemented and will be submitted.
