Severity: normal
Testing vanilla 2.6.0-test11 and
http://people.redhat.com/mingo/exec-shield/
I'm using bash and ls as an example, but the same symptoms
appear in wide range of apps: apt-get with apt-listchanges,
init+bootlogd, xterm+bash etc.
Without exec-shield:
# echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/exec-shield
# bash
$ ls

$ exit
With:
# echo 2 > /proc/sys/kernel/exec-shield
# bash
$ ls
changelog.Debian.gz copyright
Segmentation fault # <- this segfault happens in bash, not ls
#
Without NPTL
# echo 2 > /proc/sys/kernel/exec-shield
# LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1 bash
$ ls
changelog.Debian.gz copyright
$
Running gdb is kinda tricky,because it segfaults too.
By starting gdb before enabling exec-shield:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x08076f5f in kill_pid ()
(gdb) bt
#0 0x08076f5f in kill_pid ()
#1 0x0806876a in execute_command_internal ()
#2 0x08068105 in execute_command ()
#3 0x0805cbb0 in reader_loop ()
#4 0x0805ac85 in main ()
execute_command_internal beats my c parsing skills, so I don't really
understand what is happening.
Same effects with and without libc6-i686. Cpu is Athlon XP stepping 2

Hi
Using linux 2.6.9 and exec-shield-nx-2.6.9-A2 patch, there seems
to be no problems with nptl vs exec-shield. Now I just need xserver
fixed, but that's another story and package (#240809 and xfree)
