After adding the following search timer (extract from /etc/vdr/plugins/epgsearch.conf, notice the ".*") 31:Workingmen.* Death:0:::0:0:0:4:1:1:1:0:::1:0:0:0::50:99:10:20:0:0:0::0:0:1:1:1:0:0:0:0:1:0:0::1:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0 VDR crashes everytime epgsearch's search time thread is started. This does not happen if I build vdr-epgsearch w/o pcre use. The system is up to date. I already run revdep-rebuild and lafilefixer. Rebuilding vdr, vdr-epgsearch and libpcre does not fix this. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Add a search timer containing a regex 2. Wait until search timer thread is run the next time Actual Results: VDR crashes and is restarted by the init-script. Expected Results: VDR should not crash. dev-libs/libpcre-7.9-r1 media-video/vdr-1.6.0_p2

I can confirm the behaviour. And, I have a plausible patch that works at least for me: --- ./epgsearchtools.c.orig 2009-11-24 20:31:20.000000000 +0100 +++ ./epgsearchtools.c 2009-11-26 00:07:04.000000000 +0100 @@ -354,7 +354,7 @@ { regex_t re; - if ( 0 == regcomp(&re, searchText, REG_EXTENDED) ) + if ( 0 == regcomp(&re, searchText, REG_EXTENDED | REG_NOSUB) ) { int status = regexec( &re, szTest, 0, NULL, 0); regfree(&re); It is assumed that the libpcre function regexec(regex_t *preg, const char *string, size_t nmatch, regmatch_t pmatch[], int eflags); crashes due to the arguments nmatch and pmatch being 0 and NULL, respectively. The manual to pcreposix(3) states that these arguments are ignored when regcomp() gets the flag REG_NOSUB set. While the normal regex functions also ignore the zero/NULL arguments nmatch and pmatch, libpcre obviously does so _only_ if REG_NOSUB is given. Same problem with epgsearch-0.9.25_beta14 .
Things are not quite that simple, sorry. I noticed that regular expressions containing at least one bar '|' (several branches) will still _not_ work with my above patch (no crash, but also no results). Digging deeper showed a different problem with USE=pcre: The libvdr-epgsearch.so is linked with -lpcreposix , vdr itself is not linked against libpcreposix.so . When vdr loads libvdr-epgsearch.so, there seems no need to load libpcreposix.so , since regcomp(), regexec(), regfree() are already available in libc.so . Now, is there a possibility to force loading another shared library (libpcreposix.so) when libvdr-epgsearch.so is loaded? And if so, what would happen to calls to regcomp() et al. from other parts of vdr, would they now be directed to libpcreposix, too? One possibility (maybe not acceptable) would be to give other names to the pcreposix functions to avoid clobbering symbol names. Probably the function names in the source can remain and be re-#defined in pcreposix.h . Any ideas for a clean and sustainable solution are welcome.
Is this issue still persistent with media-plugins/vdr-epgsearch-0.9.25_beta20?
(In reply to comment #5) > Is this issue still persistent with media-plugins/vdr-epgsearch-0.9.25_beta20? > plz use for tests --> media-plugins/vdr-epgsearch-0.9.25_beta20-r1 media-plugins/vdr-epgsearch-0.9.25_beta20 was buggy in use-flag manipulation of Makefile, was removed from tree yes
cause this problem still in the latest version in the tree? media-plugins/vdr-epgsearch-2.2.0
