Description Norbert Schmidt 2005-04-17 13:44:37 UTC
Just compiled 3.0.14a on a slightly ancient;-) system:
Linux (once was RedHat 7.2) Kernel: 2.4.0-test10
egcs-2.91.66

Both nmbd and smbd crash on startup with Signal 11.

Even with "--enable-debug" I only get:

Is this just when you start up ?  If so then try running 
'nmbd -i' inside of gdb to get the backtrace.  Thanks.

Yes. I start it and it crashes.

GDB says:

(gdb) run

Comment 3 Norbert Schmidt 2005-04-20 11:00:20 UTC
I thought maybe some variable values may help a bit:

(gdb) print funcs
$1 = (struct charset_functions *) 0x8134a44
(gdb) print *funcs
$2 = {name = 0x812bde5 "CP850", pull = 0x80f85ec <CP850_pull>, push = 0x80f8470
<CP850_push>, prev = 0x0, next = 0x81349b8}

(gdb) print charsets
$5 = (struct charset_functions *) 0x8134a44

(gdb) print *(funcs->next)
$6 = {name = 0x81292c0 "UCS2-HEX", pull = 0x80eaedc <ucs2hex_pull>, push =
0x80eb02c <ucs2hex_push>, prev = 0x8134a44, next = 0x81349a4}

looking at these values I don't see any obvious reason to segfault ... :-(

Maybe the registers and some disassembled code ....

Comment 4 Norbert Schmidt 2005-04-20 12:01:53 UTC
Hmmm. It seems that my ancient "egcs-2.91.66" messed something up with the
creation of the return value in this case. 

I looked and found in config.log:  

#define HAVE_IMMEDIATE_STRUCTURES 1

Maybe it compiles "immediate structures" but they don't work reliably?

I just compiled it with a gcc 3.3.6: crashed again. :-(((
Comment 6 Gerald (Jerry) Carter (dead mail address) 2005-10-04 04:52:04 UTC
Please retest against 3.0.20. Although this looks more like an old iconv lib.
