library

LD_DEBUG=all output of failure executable
Hello All,
I faced crash issue while opening one library dynamically using RTLD_DEEPBIND
flag.
Scenario:
I have one library.so which is having un-initiliazed variable of data type
'std::string' and main file is also having another variable of same data type
i.e. 'std::string'.
Both files are written in C++ code.
If I execute this code then it result in crash resulting in free() call of
libc.
crash log:
*** glibc detected *** ./a.out: free(): invalid pointer: 0x00007f1229894140 ***
======= Backtrace: =========
/lib/libc.so.6(+0x77806)[0x7f1228ded806]

/lib/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xfd)[0x7f1228d94c4d]
./a.out[0x400959]
If I initiliazed std::string variable in library code like " std::string
empty_lib=""; then no crash is obeserved.
I have checked output of LD_DEBUG=all for both case executable and checked that
there is binding issue in crash scenario wrt to std::string.
Please find exact test code:
===============================================================
cat main.cpp
#include <dlfcn.h>
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
char const * const library_name = "./library.so";
void * handle = dlopen(library_name, RTLD_NOW | RTLD_LOCAL |
RTLD_DEEPBIND);
std::string empty_main="";
typedef void (*library_function_type)();
void * function = dlsym(handle, "library_function");
reinterpret_cast<library_function_type>(function)();
dlclose(handle);
return 0;
}
cat library.cpp
#include <sstream>
#include <iostream>
extern "C"
{
void library_function()
{
std::string empty_lib;
char c = '/';
empty_lib = c;
}
}
===============================================================
----------------------------------------------------------------
Compilation commands:
g++ -g -O2 -rdynamic -c -Wall -Wextra -fPIC -o library.o library.cpp ; g++
-shared -Wl,-export-dynamic -o library.so library.o
g++ -g -O2 -Wall -Wextra main.cpp -ldl
----------------------------------------------------------------
Can someone please help in this regard and let me know what went wrong and how
to solve this issue.
Please note that if I remove RTLD_DEEPBIND flag while opening this library then
I didn't get any crash.
If I write same code in .c file instead of .cpp then no issues observed.
Thanks in advance.
Attached LD_DEBUG=all output for both working and non-working case:
