Bug ID: 78475
Summary: Mixing objects form different g++ versions can crash a
program
Product: gcc
Version: 6.2.1
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: libstdc++
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: jengelh at inai dot de
CC: rguenth at gcc dot gnu.org
Target Milestone: ---
Is mixing "finalized" object files (ET_EXEC, ET_DYN) produced by different g++
versions a supported scenario? If so, consider this:
$ cat all.h
#include <memory>
#include <cstdio>
struct handler { virtual ~handler() {} };
extern std::shared_ptr<handler> get_handler(void);
$ cat g48.cpp
#include "all.h"
std::shared_ptr<handler> get_handler(void)
{
printf("%zu\n", sizeof(std::_Sp_counted_ptr_inplace<handler,
std::allocator<handler>, (__gnu_cxx::_Lock_policy)2 >));
return std::make_shared<handler>();
}
$ cat main.cpp
#include "all.h"
int main(void)
{
printf("%zu\n", sizeof(std::_Sp_counted_ptr_inplace<handler,
std::allocator<handler>, (__gnu_cxx::_Lock_policy)2 >));
get_handler();
std::make_shared<handler>();
return 0;
}
$ g++-4.8 g48.cpp -fPIC -shared -o g48.so -std=gnu++11
$ g++-6 main.cpp -o main ./g48.so -std=gnu++11
$ ./main

Segmentation fault (core dumped)
The reason, as I have found, is that there was an ABI change in
Sp_counted_ptr_inplace which made it grow in size. Furthermore, if you
single-step through g48.cpp's make_shared, you will notice it jumps between
functions from /usr/include/c++/4.8 and /usr/include/c++/6, which I suppose is
a result of symbols
(_ZNSt23_Sp_counted_ptr_inplaceI7handlerSaIS0_ELN9__gnu_cxx12_Lock_policyE2EE14_M_get_deleterERKSt9type_info)
not being sufficiently versioned, causing weak symbols from main(.o) and
g48(.o) to trample on one another. That is to say, to remedy the problem,
_Sp_counted_ptr_inplace would need something like __attribute__((__abi_tag__
("GLIBCXX_3.4.22"))) maybe.
