You'll find this test passes when run standalone. It seems two keys are used somewhere along the line when invoked via portage/ebuild. However invoking the test executable should create a new process so I don't understand why this occurs.

Created attachment 80961 [details, diff] Patch for glibc's NPTL key tests considering gentoo's sandbox The attached patch should be a valid fix for this bug. Comments are very welcome! :-) Problem: Glibc allocates one thread key when it preloads libsandbox (thanks to Martin Schlemmer for pointing this out in a comment on bug #99092). Solution: This patch reduces the value of PTHREAD_KEYS_MAX or POSIX_THREAD_KEYS_MAX (whatever is appropriate) by one in the glibc NPTL key tests sources (tst-key1.c and tst-key4.c). Since sandbox is running fine in its thread during the whole build of glibc, IMO the glibc tests' results should not be compromised by this change. (I'm not a glibc developer, so please don't flame me, if my assumption is wrong!) ;-) Result: I have tested this patch successfully with an otherwise unchanged glibc ebuild using Gentoo 2006.0 (x86 athlon-xp, glibc-2.3.6-r3, portage 2.0.54 fully synced, FEATURES="maketest"). I don't expect any problems with different hardware architectures or glibc versions, as long as you discover the same bug in your glibc build tests. ;-) Additional comments: Bug #99092 should be marked as a duplicate of this bug. IMHO, especially the three most important toolchain packages (binutils, gcc and glibc) should not be merged into a running system without having their testsuites passed. Without testing, you put the stability of your whole system at risk!
> Problem: > Glibc allocates one thread key when it preloads libsandbox hmm - two things we need to understand here: 1) the glibc ebuild unsets LD_PRELOAD before running 'make check' - that's intended to dump the sandbox. Why doesn't this release the key? 2) I'm fairly sure I saw a discrepancy of 2, not 1 - I might have been using usersandbox as well, I don't recall. Did you get a fully clean run of the test phase with glibc? I think there are a bunch of other nptl tests that fail.
> 1) the glibc ebuild unsets LD_PRELOAD before running 'make check' - that's > intended to dump the sandbox. Why doesn't this release the key? Sorry, I don't know. I have started using Gentoo (and therefore ebuild) just three days ago. ;-) > 2) I'm fairly sure I saw a discrepancy of 2, not 1 - I might have been using > usersandbox as well, I don't recall. True. The patch fixes two errors in NPTL (tst-key1 and tst-key4). > Did you get a fully clean run of the test phase with glibc? I think there are > a bunch of other nptl tests that fail. Yes, I did. :-) The two tst-key tests were the only ones that failed for me. Please note that I have build binutils and gcc with CFLAGS="-O2 -pipe" (not using -march or other optimizations like -fomit-frame-pointer and the like) before. I have learned my lesson using Linux From Scratch and DIY-Linux for some time now to not use any further optimization on these packages. ;-)
