Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: libc6
Any time a library is loaded the loader tries to access
/etc/ld.so.nohwcap before opening the library. Shouldn't this result be
cached instead of doing it potentially hundreds of times? Or is this a
side effect of using strace?
Steps to reproduce: strace any executable and the log should have
plenty of entries lke this (assuming ld.so.nohwcap exists, otherwise it
returns ENOENT):
access("/etc/ld.so.nohwcap", F_OK) = 0
open("/lib/libc.so.6", O_RDONLY) = 3
...
** Affects: glibc (Ubuntu)
Importance: Untriaged
Status: Unconfirmed
