Commit Message

Joe Simmons-Talbott March 7, 2024, 9:40 p.m. UTC
When using the glibc.rtld.enable_secure tunable we need to keep track of
the count of environment variables we skip due to __libc_enable_secure
being set and adjust the auxv section of the stack.  This fixes an
assertion when running ld.so directly with glibc.rtld.enable_secure set.

elf/rtld.c:1324   assert (auxv == sp + 1);
---
Changes to v1:
* Add comment explaining how and why skip_env is adjusted.

Can you please add a test?
Joe Simmons-Talbott April 11, 2024, 4:57 p.m. UTC | #3
Thanks for your review.  I added a testcase to the v3[1] patch that
triggers the assert without the patch and does not trigger the assert
with the patch.  I'm not certain it's a useful test though since it's
essentially testing that the assertion isn't triggered.

Thanks,
Joe
