Elfutils is still broken because of this, on everything but a few
architectures.  Can you please enable it?

As far as I can see, only init/fini should not be build using it
and as far as I can see most arches should already support this.

 How should $LIB be set to support this?  I'm worried that there's
 no value of ORIGIN and LIB that would make

I think it should expand to both the layouts?

 Anyway, I think ld.so does what it's supposed to do in case

 there in that case.  But I think it's wrong to only try
 the multiarch location.

So the elfutils code does:
#define ORIGINDIR $ORIGIN/../$LIB/ LIBEBL_SUBDIR /
strcpy (stpcpy (stpcpy (dsoname, ORIGINDIR libebl_),
machines[cnt].dsoname),
.so);

Which gives you something like:
$ORIGIN/../$LIB/elfutils/libebl_x86_64.so

Which then gets translated to:
/usr/bin/../x86_64-linux-gnu/elfutils/libebl_x86_64.so

I assume the non-multiarch code generated:
/usr/bin/../lib/elfutils/libebl_x86_64.so

And I was expecting the new code to generate:
/usr/bin/../lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/elfutils/libebl_x86_64.so

(The /lib part is missing.)

I've uploaded a new elfutils that moves the files to
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/elfutils/, but it still can't
find them.  Could you change the code include the lib part?

2010-05-24 Thread Kurt Roeckx
Package: libc6
Version: 2.10.2-6
Severity: important

Hi,

It seems that getaddrinfo() now returns EAI_NONAME for a non-permanent
error.  Trying to resolve something using host or dig, I get
as error:
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached
That is clearly different that an error message like:
Host host not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
For that error I would expect to get EAI_NONAME.

In case I don't get a reply, I would expect to get back EAI_AGAIN.

The version in lenny still returns EAI_AGAIN.

2009-12-04 Thread Kurt Roeckx
Package: libc6-dev
Version: 2.10.2-2

Hi,

As already requested in #558314, I would like to see the
following defines in timex.h:
#define MOD_NANOADJ_NANO
#define MOD_MICRO   ADJ_MICRO

I don't want anything for TAI support yet, so don't define
NTP_API of MOD_TAI yet, they're not useful without the
other changes.

But we now need to patch ntpd because STA_NANO is defined
but MOD_NANO isn't, and for some reason there is a ADJ_NANO
that does what MOD_NANO is supposed to do.

Bug#558314: eglibc: Add support for NTP API 4

2009-11-27 Thread Kurt Roeckx
Source: eglibc
Version: 2.10.2-2
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

Could you please provide support for NTP API 4?

The changes in version 4 is the addition of MOD_TAI (ADJ_TAI)
and a tai member in the ntptimeval struct.

The kernel already supports this since 2.6.26 when ADJ_TAI
got added.  The current /usr/include/sys/timex.h already
has ADJ_TAI and a tai member in struct timex.  The
struct ntptimeval however didn't get changed, since this
is not part of the kernel but implemented only in libc.

From ntpd's point of view those changes need to be made:
- add long int tai; to struct ntptimeval.  This is a long in
  all known versions I know, but the kernel has an int in
  the struct timex (for compatibility reasons with the old
  struct?).
- #define NTP_API 4
- Have a MOD_TAI define
- ntp_gettime() should fill in the tai member of struct
  ntptimeval.

Note that there is an ADJ_TAI in timex.h, and defines
to change from ADJ_* to MOD_*, but there is no such one
for TAI, NANO or MICRO.  The ntp source does not use any of
the ADJ_* names, it only uses MOD_*.

The following defines are missing:
#define MOD_NANOADJ_NANO
#define MOD_MICRO   ADJ_MICRO
#define MOD_TAI ADJ_TAI

(The other 3 ADJ_* defines are not used in ntp.)

 Changing the struct ntptimeval means changing the ABI. This has been
 done upstream using symbol versioning, using GLIBC_2.12. I am currently
 not sure we can already use this version without breaking the binary
 compatibility with other distributions.

We're only waiting for this since 2000.  A little longer won't
hurt.

 You'll find that the duplication of 127.0.0.1 is still there if you specify
 AF_INET instead, because the problematic duplication happens when requesting
 records for the ipv4 address family.  I left it as AF_UNSPEC in the test
 case to show that the problem exists when using protocol-agnostic best
 practices, which is what slapd does.

I was just confused when reading it, and understood it as only
requesting AF_INET.  That was just to make it clear.

  - the ::1 address should *not* be special-cased by nss_files.  I really
can't perceive any reason why it should be special-cased in the first
place; i.e., why should the files backend behave differently than the DNS
backend, and why would we want names that were specifically assigned to
::1, including names like ip6-loopback, to be automatically mapped to
127.0.0.1?
 
  I can't find any good reason why it should be changing ::1 to 127.0.0.1.
  So I think that atleast glibc should stop doing that.  In any case, it
  shouldn't return 127.0.0.1 twice when it's not configured to return
  it twice.
 
 What do you mean by configured to return it twice?  Would that mean
 duplicate lines in /etc/hosts (i.e., misconfiguration)?

Yes.

  - we should only set up a single 'localhost' entry in /etc/hosts, pointing
at ::1, and let nss_files handle the mapping to 127.0.0.1 automatically.
 
  - You could also argue that openldap should get fixed to deal with cases
where it tries to bind to the same ip/port twice.  On the other hand,
I don't think it a normal case, and I think it's unlikely that people
would set up dns to have 2 times the same IP address and then try
to bind to that hostname.
 
 Well, as I said before,
 
  I don't think it's the responsibility of callers such as slapd to check 
  that
  getaddrinfo() hasn't returned duplicate entries [...]
 
 so if you have an argument of why extra complexity should be added to the
 caller to deal with duplicate records which, one way or another, should not
 exist (IMHO), I'm interested to hear it.

The only case I can come up with would be misconfiguration, which I
don't think is a good reason.

 Hi folks,
 
 I've run across an ipv4/ipv6 configuration issue which I think needs to have
 light cast on it so we can try to resolve this in time for lenny (whatever
 the right resolution actually is), in order to avoid a pile-up of
 /etc/hosts-related kludges as has been known to happen before...
 
 In response to bug #427067, the netbase maintainer made a change that adds
 localhost as an alias for ::1 on new installs.  In April of this year, the
 Debian Installer team followed suit, adding this line in the netcfg udeb.
 
 The result of these changes is that since July 2007, any new lenny or sid
 chroots have had two addresses listed for localhost, and since April of this
 year, any new installs of lenny done using d-i have had it as well.
 
 Now, the problem I ran into is that when I enabled the test suite in the
 openldap2.3 package, the build failed mysteriously on a seemingly random set
 of architectures.  The reason?  The test suite configures slapd to run on a
 particular port on localhost, and the glibc files NSS backend
 special-cases the ::1 IPv6 loopback address, so that when you request an
 IPv4 address, it will map any ::1 entries to 127.0.0.1 for you.  But of
 course we already have an entry for localhost as 127.0.0.1, so now we end up
 with duplicate addresses returned, and slapd tries to bind twice to the same
 address and port!

You don't seem to request ipv4 addresses, you request AF_UNSPEC, which
should get you both ipv4 and ipv6.  You get 127.0.0.1 twice, and ::1 one
time.

 A test program showing this behavior is attached - compile and run it on a
 system with '::1 localhost' set in /etc/hosts, and you'll see 127.0.0.1
 returned twice.  An alternate test case, which also works on systems with
 older /etc/hosts and which I think shows the counterintuitiveness of the
 nss_files special-casing, is to run getent ahostsv4 ip6-localhost.
 
 I don't think it's the responsibility of callers such as slapd to check that
 getaddrinfo() hasn't returned duplicate entries, so I see a couple of
 solutions here:
 
 - the ::1 address should *not* be special-cased by nss_files.  I really
   can't perceive any reason why it should be special-cased in the first
   place; i.e., why should the files backend behave differently than the DNS
   backend, and why would we want names that were specifically assigned to
   ::1, including names like ip6-loopback, to be automatically mapped to
   127.0.0.1?

I can't find any good reason why it should be changing ::1 to 127.0.0.1.
So I think that atleast glibc should stop doing that.  In any case, it
shouldn't return 127.0.0.1 twice when it's not configured to return

I always have to go and search what the option is to show the current
charmap.  It's documented in nl_langinfo(3), but it would be nice that
it was documented in either the locale manpage, or that the locale tool
could show it itself.

By guessing from the same manpage I could atleast find those
additional names that locale supports:
d_fmt, d_t_fmt, t_fmt, t_fmt_ampm.

I'm guessing there are more.  It would be nice if this was better
documented somewhere.

etch: libc6 2.3.6.ds1-13etch2: ordered results

On other implementations I'm aware of is in libbind.  You'll need to run
configure with the --enable-libbind for that.  It doesn't reorder it.

I don't know of any of the other libcs in debian actually provide
getaddrinfo(), but I doubt they'll reorder.

There are also lots of applications that have a wrapper around
gethostbyname() in case the libc doesn't provide it.  It's highly
unlikely any of those will do any reordering.

  This may have been a disputed but arguable definition of real network
  proximity for IPv6 in at the time 3484 was written.  But it is clear
  now that it is not such a measure in the real IPv6 internet, and it
  has never been such a measure in the IPv4 internet.
 
 I hadn't seen any indication it was disputed for IPv6 prior to your mail.
 The patch in glibc only affected IPv4 addresses, for that matter.

I've also stated that it might not work properly for IPv6.  It's
likely that something in the same /32 is close network wise, it's
even more likely for /48 and /64, but you probably don't want to go
below the /32.

 OTOH, getaddrinfo is meant to give a close answer, and doing prefix

 And that would imply that the Right Thing would be to have an option
 more like:
 
   pretend-that 10/8 is-really 1.2.3.4/32
 
 That doesn't seem likely to work though because it requires extra
 manual configuration, which won't happen.
 
 Giving up on actually getting getaddrinfo to give close answers for
 NATed boxes leaves the option of trying to avoid getaddrinfo going out
 of its way to give far answers instead, which would mean turning off
 prefix-matching for NATed boxes; which could be done by ignoring rule
 9 by default for private IPv4 addresses.

The problem with IPv4 is not only about NAT.  It just happens to show
the problem better.

With the IPv6 allocation policies, it's likely that the more higher bits
match, the closer it is network wise.  It is rather unlikly in the IPv4
case, specially if you go above /16.

glibc's getaddrinfo() sort order

2007-09-06 Thread Kurt Roeckx
Hi,

I'm not agreeing with the glibc maintainer(s) about wether getaddrinfo()
should sort the results or not.  I think the current way it sorts things
does not work at all in IPv4, and I think it hurts more than it does
good.

I'm seeking input from the tech-ctte on how to handle this.

The first one makes a point to which I party agree, but also disagree.

It's atleast in the spirit of the rfc to prefer one that's on the local
network.  It might be the intention of rule 9, but then rule 9 isn't
very well written.

In the case the server has 2 addresses assigned, I doubt that you're
going to advertise the local one outside.  So you're atleast have a
different response for an internal and external query.  I don't see
why the interal query should also return the external address.

I already suggested that maybe rule 9 should be limited to the common
prefix length of the netmask you're using.  An other option is that you
extend rule 2 to have the same behaviour with ipv4, and that 10/8,
172.16/12 and 192.168/16 should be considered organization-local.

Ulrich Drepper actually called site-local in the second document, but
I think organization-local would be the right scope for it.

 If you don't want results to be sorted, don't use getaddrinfo().

Do you have a suggestion for an other interface that works with

That's a rule that might work for IPv6, but not for IPv4.  But even when
using IPv6, I think you want the CommonPrefixLen to be atleast 24 bit,
maybe even 32, or even 64.

So, because I happen to have a 10.0.0.0/8 address, it prefers addresses
which as many as possible 0's at the front.  This is unlikely to give me
an address that's going to be close network-wise, since none of the
returned addresses are actually in 10.0.0.0/8.

 Anyway if you don't want to sort to the returned addresses,
 you only want to do that for IPv4, and thus need two different interfaces.

I think rule 9 shouldn't be use for IPv4 addresses, or be changed that
the minimum CommonPrefixLen should be the that of the netmask of the
source address.

 The fact you have a 10.0.0.0/8 does not changes anything to the way the
 list is sorted in rule 9. Only the returned addresses are taken into
 account.

It sorts the list in such a way that the top most bits are the same.
So it first sorts by:
10.0.0.0/8
then:
10.0.0.0/7
8.0.0.0/6
8.0.0.0/5
0.0.0.0/4
0.0.0.0/3
0.0.0.0/2
0.0.0.0/1

And then finaly the rest (128.0.0.0/1)

The first of those makes sense for me, the rest doesn't.

2007-08-15 Thread Kurt Roeckx
Package: glibc
Version: 2.6.1-1
Severity: important


Hi,

It seems that getaddrinfo() seems to sort the results, which defeats the
point of having multiple A-records in the first place.

If I look up 0.pool.ntp.org I (now) get:
0.pool.ntp.org has address 193.39.78.2
0.pool.ntp.org has address 195.34.187.132
0.pool.ntp.org has address 202.73.37.27
0.pool.ntp.org has address 212.24.114.156
0.pool.ntp.org has address 217.116.227.3
0.pool.ntp.org has address 62.75.136.76
0.pool.ntp.org has address 62.245.224.171
0.pool.ntp.org has address 64.5.1.129
0.pool.ntp.org has address 66.180.136.186

0.pool.ntp.org has address 81.169.172.219
0.pool.ntp.org has address 85.25.252.58
0.pool.ntp.org has address 88.198.8.101
0.pool.ntp.org has address 91.121.13.62

But getaddrinfo() will always return ip's in this order:
62.75.136.76
62.245.224.171
64.5.1.129
[...]

There seems to be some variation in the list, but the first 4 or 5 are
always the same.  I only care about the first one.

It should keep the order of the A-records the same as they were returned
by the dns server.

Are you sure you closed the right bug?  You've closed the one assigned

reassign 403658 purelibc
retitle 403658 purelibc: FTBFS: Makes use of glibc internal _IO_MTSAFE_IO.
thanks

 Theoretically you should not define _IO_MTSAFE_IO it is reserved for
 glibc internals. That's why you get an error there, when using a NPTL libc.

So, I've reassign it to purelibc, because it shouldn't be using it.

(It seems you tried to merge bugs, but I guess control never got those,
so I've just reassigned one of them to purelibc instead of cloning one.)

 I will try to find a hack to ignore all occurences of _IO_MTSAFE_IO from
 the headers installed by the glibc.

At which point purelibc won't be able to build on any arch, so they
really should look at it.

Which results in:
typedef struct { pthread_mutex_t mutex; } __libc_lock_recursive_t;

on amd64 we have:
#include bits/libc-lock.h
#include lowlevellock.h

typedef struct { int lock; int cnt; void *owner; } _IO_lock_t;


It looks to me like the version on amd64 currently isn't really working,

Bug#372515: iconv(): Returns EILSEQ when it can't convert to the output encoding.

2006-06-09 Thread Kurt Roeckx
Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.6-15
Severity: important

Hi,

It seems that iconv() return -1 and sets errno to EILSEQ on valid
input that it can't convert to the output encoding.  It shouldn't be
doing that, since it is valid input.

This can be simple showed using the iconv util, since it reacts
the same.  An simple latin1 file:
$ cat test.txt
tést
$ iconv -f latin1 -t ASCII test.txt  /dev/null
iconv: illegal input sequence at position 1
$ iconv -f latin1 -t UTF-8 test.txt  /dev/null
$ 

From the manpage:
   EILSEQ An invalid multibyte sequence has been encountered in the input.

From Single Unix Specification 3:
   [EILSEQ]
  Input conversion stopped due to an input byte that does not
  belong to the input codeset.

It also says:
 If iconv() encounters a character in the input buffer that is
 valid, but for which an identical character does not exist in the
 target codeset, iconv() shall perform an implementation-defined
 conversion on this character.

Instead of doing an implementation-defined conversion, it's
returning an error, and saying the input is invalid, while the
input is clearly valid.  I would rather have that it actually
follows the standard, and does some conversion, even if it just
turns it in a '?' or something.

Re: Bug #355099: kdelibs FTBFS

 After some investigation of the failure of kdelibs to build, I found it 
 appears to be a bug in either libtool, ld, or the dynamic linker, so I'm 
 CC'ing the maintainers of those packages.  The problem is that lt-meinproc is 
 getting linked with a NEEDED entry pointing to libkdecore.so because it 
 directly uses symbols from that library, which is indirectly brought in by 
 the -lkio argument, but the RPATH on the resulting binary only includes the 
 directory containing libkio.so.

I think the commands you're talking about being issued here are:

/usr/lib/libxslt.so /usr/lib/libxml2.so -lz -lm ../kio/.libs/libkio.so -lbz2

So basicly, there isn't a -lkdecore, while there should
have been one.  I consider this to be a bug in the
package.  The linker however adds in case it can detect
it, as you seem to be aware of.  See
http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2005-09/msg00200.html
for those who don't.

As you say later in the mail adding kdecore to the link
line solves this, and I think this should be done in any
case.

Looking at the result of an ldd on lt-meinproc I see:
[...]
libkdecore.so.4 = not found
[...]
libkdecore.so.4 = 
/usr/src/kdelibs-3.5.1/obj-x86_64-linux-gnu/kdecore/.libs/libkdecore.so.4 
(0x2e6dc000)

Where the first one comes from the executable itself,
which doesn't have an rpath, and the second one comes from
libkwalletclient.so.1 (thru libkio.so.4)

  Then the dynamic linker can't find where 
 libkdecore.so is, despite the fact that libkio.so's RPATH includes the 
 directories containing its dependencies, and one of those libraries has the 
 RPATH needed for libkdecore.so.

 So I can see a few different ways to fix this:
 
 * Make libtool include all indirect rpath's directly on the link command 
 line.  
 But I find this ugly, and in fact a step backwards from recent improvements, 
 and it really doesn't solve the general problem either.

I've been pondering wether libtool should always add
rpaths to libraries/binaries as long as they're not
installed, but that has a few problems.  One of them is,
you'll always need to relink when you want to install it
to remove the rpath's that you don't need.  An other is
that it's probably not very portable.

One of the reasons I thought about this is #320698.

 * Make the dynamic loader able to find libraries within rpath's from already 
 loaded libraries.  But this doesn't totally solve the case outside libtool -- 
 what if that other library then gets relinked in such a way that it doesn't 
 indirectly include that rpath anymore?

I think that 2 libraries with the same soname should be
considered the same file.  However, I think the problem is
that in the executable (lt-meinproc) there is no rpath, so
it can't find it at that time.  Then later some other
libraries get loaded, and one of them needs the same
library again, but this time has an rpath.  I think it's
reasonable to expect it to fail.  I think if it tried to
load them in a different order, it would have worked, but
I don't think it should.

 * Make ld add the required directory to RPATH when it automatically adds a 
 NEEDED entry due to direct usage of symbols from the library involved.  
 Somewhat ugly, though.

I already find it ugly that it adds the NEEDED by
itself, please don't make it automaticly add RPATH's too.
But if it wouldn't have added the NEEDED in the first
place, you would have known that you needed to link
to kdecore sooner, and wouldn't have this problem.

I'm still for removing this feature from the linker.

debhelper: Standard way to restart services on library upgrade.

2006-03-05 Thread Kurt Roeckx
Package: debhelper
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

Some libraries want to restart a list of services when the
library gets upgraded.  I currently know of only 2 such libraries
that have code for it: libc6 and libssl0.9.8.

They both have a simular postinst script, but they also have
differences.

For instance, libc6 has a workaround for exim4 that libssl0.9.8
is missing, and probably should also have.  And that is my
biggest problem.

libc6 doesn't use debconf, libssl0.9.8 does, but probably not as
it should.  But maybe libc6 can't used debconf?

There are other problems with it like neither of them is using
invoke-rc.d, as they probably should be doing.

I'm looking for a more standard way to restart services,
so I don't have worry about all those special cases.  I was
wondering if a debhelper script could help with part of this.

 To fix this, I suggest to add the missing symlink /usr/lib64 - /usr/lib

 way as it is done for the 'libc6' package.

The /lib64 - lib symlink on d-i is created by the rootskel.udeb.
Please atleast keep things in the same package.  I wouldn't have
a problem with moving this to the glibc package, and I think we
should do that.  But we should probably coordinate this with the
d-i people.

Anyway, I think we shouldn't need a /usr/lib64.  The only reason
we need a /lib64 is because that is where the dynamic linker is.

Re: Moving 32-bit libraries to (/usr)/lib32 on amd64

  If there's

 My sense is that the concensus that exists is around FHS compliance.
 While I personally consider /usr/lib32 pretty ugly, I am sensitive to
 the fact that we have always tried to be FHS compliant in Debian.

FHS actually has a libqual in it, where qual can be things
like 32 or 64.

For PPC64, s390x, sparc64 and AMD64 it says that 64 bit libraries
should be put in /lib64 and 32 bit version in /lib.

For IA64, it says 64 bit libraries should be put in /lib, but
doesn't say where 32 bit versions belong.  It says:
IA-64 uses a different scheme, reflecting the deprecation of
32-bit binaries (and hence libraries) on that architecture.

I think 32 bit it makes sense to actually put 32 bit libraries on
ia64 in /lib32 too, instead of the current /emul/ia32-linux/, and
think it would be more inline with the FHS.  Is there a reason
it's using /emul/ia32-linux/ ?

So I would like both ia64 and amd64 to use /lib32.


 Looking over the open bug reports, it's well past time for another
 general update of ia32-libs.  I'll try to make time for it this week.

In the end, I'd like to get rid of ia32-libs, and have it be a
dummy package.  But on the other hand, I don't want to make a
biarch version of things like the X libraries.


PS: Does this really have to be on -release?

 I assume you mean that amd64 doesn't.  2.3.5-8 migrated to testing just
 fine.  It's not our fault that the archive scripts and the separate
 amd64 archive don't get along.

The archive scripts have some problems with this, and you could
agrue that they should get fixed to handle it.  I think it's a
useless effort.

 The patch in this bug is fine, if you want to do the NMU.  I don't have
 time for another glibc upload and someone _needs_ to look at sparc64
 before the next one anyway.

Patch for the NMU is attached.

Bug#339389: glibc: FTBFS on amd64: sem_trywait.S:59: Error: symbol `sem_trywait' is already defined

2005-11-15 Thread Kurt Roeckx

Hi,

I believe the attached patch should fix it.  It now does
the same as on i386, and have the real symbol named
__new_sem_trywait, and add the weak alias as sem_trywait.

With the attached patch it builds, and seems to work fine.

Bug#326561: linux-kernel-headers usbdevice_fs.h broken on amd64

2005-09-09 Thread Kurt Roeckx
Hi,

I'm seeing a simular problem when building openct on amd64 that
is caused by including usbdevice_fs.h.
A buildd log is available at:
http://amd64.ftbfs.de/fetch.php?pkg=openctver=0.6.5-2arch=amd64stamp=1126228644file=logas=raw

The first problem here is that div64.h uses BIT_PER_LONG, which is
__KERNEL__ only.  The rest is probably simular.

Bug#325226: libc6: Wrong dynamic linker on amd64.

2005-08-26 Thread Kurt Roeckx
Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.2.ds1-22

Hi,

It seems that on amd64, all binaries and libraries in the libc6
pacakge have a wrong dynamic linker in the binaries.

ldd /lib/libc.so.6
/lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x002a95556000)
ldd /usr/bin/iconv
libc.so.6 = /lib/libc.so.6 (0x002a9566e000)
/lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x002a95556000)
...

The ABI says that it should be /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, and
every other binary and lib does have that, except for things in
the libc6 package.

Note that that we have a /lib64 - lib symlinks, and that
everything should get installed in /lib, it's just that the path
in the binaries itself is wrong.

I don't think it's really important, but it's probably nice to
have this fixed.

If you're going to fix this, could you please provide a patch for
this so I can test it before you upload it?

This bug exists in both sarge (2.3.2.ds1-22) and sid (2.3.5-4).

Merging those bugs, since they all obviously are the same.

 That is a bug in libnss-pgsql; __libc_lock_* are not an exported
 interface, do not use them.

So I'm reassigning this to libnss-pgsql.

 You do have TLS, but tls.h is not and will never be an installed
 header; ditto the others.

Right, I got a little confused about that.  The version on i386
seems to look completely different anyway.

 Is it that glibc has a versioned Replaces: base-files and dpkg removes
 the symlink in base-files before installing the one from glibc,
 creating a big window during which /lib64 does not exist at all?

glibc (libc6) does not replace base-files.  Why should it?

Last time I looked getting it into glibc I couldn't figure out
where to change the rules files to put it in the package so I've
never really tried this.  Maybe Andreas still knows how he
patched it?

  glibc (libc6) does not replace base-files.  Why should it?
 
 Because otherwise the upgrade from an already running amd64 system
 (which has a modified base-files containing the symlink) would result
 in dpkg complaining about a file conflict. A Replaces field would
 allow dpkg to move the ownership of the symlink from base-files to
 libc in a clean way. However, it there is a time window during which
 /lib64 does not exist at all it will not work that way.

I've patched the latest glibc to to provide the symlink.  This is
what I get:

I don't know what you all changed in the gcc-3.4 archive.  But

/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2.  And since the LSB says it should be
/lib64/ld-lsb-x86-64.so.2 I would even say it should be changed
to that.

Anything else is going to cause problems running our binaries on
an other distribution.  We should also make sure that programs
build on an other distro can be run on debian so I think we also
need to have a /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 provided in some
way.

Bug#248192: setpshared on amd64 not working?

Putting this to debian/sysdeps/amd64.mk fixes the problem and
doesn't seem to be causing any problems so far:
GLIBC_PASSES += nptl

I'm not sure if any of the other options are needed?  Things like
adding --with-tls also seem to compile without problems.

Bug#248192: setpshared on amd64 not working?

2004-05-09 Thread Kurt Roeckx
Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.2.ds1-12

It seems that pthread_condattr_setpshared and
pthread_mutexattr_setpshared both return 38 (ENOSYS) when called
on amd64.

Example code:

pthread_condattr_t condattr;
printf(%d\n, pthread_condattr_init(condattr));
printf(%d\n, pthread_condattr_setpshared(condattr, 
PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED));

prints:
0
38

The same test on i386 returns:
0
0

I find it rather strange because the code says:
  /* For now it is not possible to shared a conditional variable. */
  if (pshared != PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE)
return ENOSYS;

Am I missing something?

 Details about the kernel and environment on both test systems?

It's both times on the same machine with the same kernel.  It's
an x86_64 2.6.5 kernel.

The i386 part is a chroot with sarge i386 on it, amd64 is a
pure64 amd64 chroot.

 Presumably setpshared is supported by NPTL and not by LinuxThreads.

Right.  And I only looed at the linuxthread sources.

So the question becomes isn't NPTL build for amd64?  It atleast
has an x86_64 dir in it.

I think the whole file should be probably be #ifdef'd to

Using dash it's not properly requoting

I'm not really sure who's to blame for it not working.  I think
there is atleast a bug in glibc's fnmatch().  That regex might
also need fixing.  But I really don't know what needs to be done.

If I understand Herbert Xu correctly, he's saying the regex

  You're quite right.  This is reaffirmed by the POSIX document for
  basic regular expressions, which is what POSIX uses to define
  shell patterns.

For fnmatch it says:

 The fnmatch() function shall match patterns as described in the
 Shell and Utilities volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Section 2.13.1,
 Patterns Matching a Single Character, and Section 2.13.2, Patterns
 Matching Multiple Characters.

Which says:

   The pattern matching notation described in this section is used to
   specify patterns for matching strings in the shell.  Historically,
   pattern matching notation is related to, but slightly different from,
   the regular expression notation described in the Base Definitions
   volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Chapter 9, Regular Expressions. For
   this reason, the description of the rules for this pattern matching
   notation are based on the description of regular expression notation,
   modified to include backslash escape processing.

[...]
   A backslash character shall escape the following character.
   The escaping backslash shall be discarded.

[...]
   The description of basic regular expression bracket expressions in the
   Base Definitions volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Section 9.3.5, RE
   Bracket Expression shall also apply to the pattern bracket expression

That says:

The
   right-bracket ( ']' ) shall lose its special meaning and represent
   itself in a bracket expression if it occurs first in the list
   (after an initial circumflex ( '^' ), if any).
[...]
   The special characters '.' , '*' , '[' , and '\' (period, asterisk,
   left-bracket, and backslash, respectively) shall lose their
   special meaning within a bracket expression.


After reading all that you have to get confused about what [\[\]\\] means.
At the highest level it says that the '\' should be discarded,
so you end up with [[]\] and look at that as a normal regular
expression?  Atleast that is how I interpret things.

But testing this shows that this program:
#include fnmatch.h
int main()
{
printf(%d\n, fnmatch([\\]a], a, 0));
printf(%d\n, fnmatch([\\]a], \\, 0));
printf(%d\n, fnmatch([\\]a], ], 0));
printf(%d\n, fnmatch([]a], a, 0));
printf(%d\n, fnmatch([]a], ], 0));
return 0;
}
returns:
1
1
0
0
0

This does _not_ make sense to me in any way.  If the 3rd line says
there is a match, I would think it's interpreting it as []a],
but then the first line should match too.

Ps: On other platforms I get:
0
1
0
0
0

One returned:
1
1
1
0
0


Which atleast make a little more sense.

 Not quite.  In the context of case patterns and fnmatch, quote removal
 is not performed.

You mean fnmatch() gets called with the FNM_NOESCAPE flag?

  basic regular expressions, which is what POSIX uses to define
  shell patterns.

For fnmatch it says:

 The fnmatch() function shall match patterns as described in the
 Shell and Utilities volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Section 2.13.1,
 Patterns Matching a Single Character, and Section 2.13.2, Patterns
 Matching Multiple Characters.

Which says:

   The pattern matching notation described in this section is used to
   specify patterns for matching strings in the shell.  Historically,
   pattern matching notation is related to, but slightly different from,
   the regular expression notation described in the Base Definitions
   volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Chapter 9, Regular Expressions. For
   this reason, the description of the rules for this pattern matching
   notation are based on the description of regular expression notation,
   modified to include backslash escape processing.

[...]
   A backslash character shall escape the following character.
   The escaping backslash shall be discarded.

[...]
   The description of basic regular expression bracket expressions in the
   Base Definitions volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Section 9.3.5, RE
   Bracket Expression shall also apply to the pattern bracket expression

That says:

The
   right-bracket ( ']' ) shall lose its special meaning and represent
   itself in a bracket expression if it occurs first in the list
   (after an initial circumflex ( '^' ), if any).
[...]
   The special characters '.' , '*' , '[' , and '\' (period, asterisk,
   left-bracket, and backslash, respectively) shall lose their
   special meaning within a bracket expression.


After reading all that you have to get confused about what [\[\]\\] means.
At the highest level it says that the '\' should be discarded,
so you end up with [[]\] and look at that as a normal regular
expression?  Atleast that is how I interpret things.

But testing this shows that this program:
#include fnmatch.h
int main()
{
printf(%d\n, fnmatch([\\]a], a, 0));
printf(%d\n, fnmatch([\\]a], \\, 0));
printf(%d\n, fnmatch([\\]a], ], 0));
printf(%d\n, fnmatch([]a], a, 0));
printf(%d\n, fnmatch([]a], ], 0));
return 0;
}
returns:
1
1
0
0
0

This does _not_ make sense to me in any way.  If the 3rd line says
there is a match, I would think it's interpreting it as []a],
but then the first line should match too.

Ps: On other platforms I get:
0
1
0
0
0

One returned:
1
1
1
0
0


Which atleast make a little more sense.

 Not quite.  In the context of case patterns and fnmatch, quote removal
 is not performed.

You mean fnmatch() gets called with the FNM_NOESCAPE flag?

Bug#242122: No weak symbol for res_* on amd64.

 That's a bug in the affected configure scripts, then.  I believe
 autoconf 2.5x is capable of handling this correctly.

Openssh 3.8p1-2 is using autoconf 2.52 and has the problem, krb5
1.3.2 is even using 2.59.

krb5 for instance returns this:
checking for res_search... no
checking for res_search in -lresolv... no
configure: error: Cannot find resolver support routine res_search in -lresolv.
make: *** [configure-stamp] Error 1

The test program looks like:
| char res_search ();
| int
| main ()
| {
| res_search ();
|   ;
|   return 0;
| }

Without resolv.h it will not find __res_search, with resolv.h it
will fail to compile because of too few arguments to function.

Bug#242122: No weak symbol for res_* on amd64.

2004-04-04 Thread Kurt Roeckx
Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.2.ds1-11

It seems the weak symbols for res_* are missing on amd64.

in resolv/res_data.c there is:
#if SHLIB_COMPAT(libresolv, GLIBC_2_0, GLIBC_2_2)
weak_alias (__res_query, res_query);

It seems the SHLIB_COMPAT(libresolv, GLIBC_2_0, GLIBC_2_2)
returns false for some reason.  If I remove that #if then I
properly get the weak symbols.

 Why do you believe the weak symbols should be there?

It's a problem because configure doesn't find it anymore.  It
doesn't include resolv.h so it doesn't know that it gets changed
to __res_*.

I see 2 ways of fixing this, either fix all packages that depend
on libresolv or add the weak symbols.
