Hi,
I wonder if anyone noticed that segfault messages are no longer appended
to the dmesg output. For me it looks like serious POLA violation. The
following script highlights the problem:
--- kaboom.sh ---
#!/bin/sh
dmesg -a > dmesg.old
cat > tst.c << EOF
#include <stdio.h>
main () { return strlen((char *)NULL); }
EOF
cc tst.c -o tst
./tst
dmesg -a > dmesg.new
diff -d dmesg.old dmesg.new
rm -f dmesg.old tst.c tst dmesg.new
------------------
On a 4-STABLE system:
max@vic$ ./kaboom.sh
./kaboom.sh: line 7: 12717 Segmentation fault ./tst
345a345
> pid 12717 (tst), uid 1001: exited on signal 11
max@vic$
Whereas on a 5-CURRENT:
max@notebook$ ./kaboom.sh
./kaboom.sh: line 7: 333 Segmentation fault ./tst
max@notebook$
Please fix.
