Applications which are linked against the latest diet libc from the portage tree and use the third argument to main() to access the process environment fail with a segmentation fault. This happens because of dereferenced invalid pointers. The bug appears only in version 0.33_pre20110403 which is a snapshot of a github repository[1]. Neither the latest revision of this repository nor the CVS repository[2] of the original author is affected. [1] https://github.com/hollow/dietlibc [2] http://www.fefe.de/dietlibc/ Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. create some test file $ cat >/tmp/t.c #include <stdio.h> /* don't hurt me! */ int main(int argc, char *argv[], char *envp[]) { while (*envp) printf("%p\n", *envp++); return 0; } 2. compile it $ diet gcc -o /tmp/diettest /tmp/t.c 3. run it $ /tmp/diettest Actual Results: 0x21 0x7fff4f3d5000 [...] 0x5 0x5 Expected Results: 0x7fffce35a436 0x7fffce35a4ca [...] 0x7fffce35a52e 0x7fffce35a53e * extern char **environ is not affected * I assume the problem to be in the startup code (x86_64/start.S), which differs from the actual repository versions * this breaks serdo from sys-process/minit
