Bug 362685 – net-mail/dbmail utils crash with default LDFLAGS - *** glibc detected *** dbmail-util: free(): invalid pointer: 0xXXXXXXXX ***

• Status: RESOLVED OBSOLETE
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Vadim Petryaev 2011-04-09 09:10:09 UTC]

DBMail (I tried versions from 2.2.9 and 2.2.17) emerged with use flags: ldap postgres python sieve.
All DBmail executables hands on exit with message:
*** glibc detected *** dbmail-util: free(): invalid pointer: 0xXXXXXXXX ***
For example dbmail-util -cpdy
In case of create /etc/portage/bashrc (according to http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Safe_LDFLAGS) and set:
net-mail/dbmail                 -Wl,-O1
in package.ldflags, DBMail runs fine without errors.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set net-mail/dbmail use flags: ldap postgres python sieve
2. emerge dbmail
3. Configure dbmail with postgresql
4. dbmail-util -cpdy




Default LDFLAGS in /usr/portage/profiles/default/linux/make.defaults is LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed"
I don't know how to define separate LDFLAGS for ebuild without /etc/portage/bashrc and /etc/portage/package.ldflags

please post `emerge --info` in every bug report.  also, post the full build log as an attachment.

Not only dbmail-utils crashed on exit! I tried also other executables with the same result: dbmail-imapd, dbmail-pop3 and dbmail-smtp.

[Comment 7 Thomas Raschbacher 2011-08-02 12:16:52 UTC]

odd I have the same useflags - and use it with postgresql - apart from ldap.

which postgresql (-base, -server, libpq) do you have?

[Comment 8 Vadim Petryaev 2011-08-02 12:53:33 UTC]

-server, but of course, -base also installed.

*  dev-db/postgresql-base
      Latest version installed: 9.0.4-r2
*  dev-db/postgresql-server
      Latest version installed: 9.0.4-r1

Don't forget. I also use CPU specific GCC flags:
CFLAGS="-O2 -march=k8-sse3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -mmmx -msse2 -mfpmath=sse -msse3 -m3dnow"

[Comment 9 Thomas Raschbacher 2011-08-31 13:32:23 UTC]

I've got

postgresql-server 8.3.12 .


CFLAGS="-march=athlon64 -O2 -pipe"
CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu"

In any case it seems to be a problem with some of your CFLAGS.
Could you do some experiments which ones cause the problem? because then
1) you can report to upstream about it
2) we can use flag-o-matic.eclass to replace/remove one/some flags

Did you try version 3.0.2 (in my dev-overlay) yet?
-- If you don'T want to add my overlay, I will put it in the maintree today or the following days after checking out some libzdb issue

[Comment 11 Thomas Raschbacher 2012-09-07 12:40:24 UTC]

3.0.2 is in the official tree please test this
