When building binaries using -O1 (or higher) and the -fzero-call-used-regs=all the resultant object files may create a broken binary when linked to. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a file named get_progname.c 2. Paste the following into get_progname.c: #include <string.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> char *ssh_get_progname(char *argv0) { char *p, *q; extern char *__progname; p = __progname; if ((q = strdup(p)) == NULL) { perror("strdup"); exit(1); } return q; } 3. Execute clang -O1 -ggdb -fzero-call-used-regs=all -c get_progname.c 4. Create a file named test.c 5. Paste the following into test.c: #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <string.h> #include <syslog.h> extern char *__progname; char *ssh_get_progname(char *); int main(int argc, char **argv) { __progname = ssh_get_progname(argv[0]); openlog(argv[0], 1, LOG_USER); return 0; } 6. Execute clang -O1 -ggdb -fzero-call-used-regs=all -c test.c 7. Execute clang -o test test.o get_progname.o 8. run ./test Actual Results: ./test segfaults due to argv[0] being incorrectly set to NULL during execution Expected Results: ./test should run and exit successfully.

This was found when building openssh with clang-15. After building openssh, utilities such as ssh-keygen started segfaulting as described above.
FYI: __progname is initialized by glibc during program startup. It is a GNU extension.

I can confirm this (and was about to file a bug myself, although I didn't find the time to identify the root cause, i.e. compile flag, so kudos to you!) Another package that seems to be miscompiled with clang-15 is zsh, which simply hangs forever when executed afterwards. For the record, my system is fully built with libc++, but simply setting "CC=clang-14" and "CXX=clang-14" and rebuilding fixes both packages for me, even though they're being built against libc++-15. I am building with -O3 and besides that, no special CFLAGS.

We're going to have a lot of these, there's configure tests misfiring: https://discourse.llvm.org/t/configure-script-breakage-with-the-new-werror-implicit-function-declaration/65213.
(please report them all, I'm trying to find them, but it's not easy)

CCing Daniel as he seems to have reported this upstream to OpenSSH as well. Interestingly, this bug seems to persist in some cases even with 15.0.6! See https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/59242.
This is fixed upstream in https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/14d4cddc5506fb0fd3c4ac556b4edd970aa151eb. We've backported the fix in sys-devel/llvm-15.0.6-r1: ``` commit 691ee18503cb07d574461d81918ea02d4cb1f884 Author: Michał Górny <mgorny@gentoo.org> Date: Fri Jan 6 18:26:51 2023 +0100 sys-devel/llvm: Backport X86 CodeGen fix to 15.0.6-r1 Signed-off-by: Michał Górny <mgorny@gentoo.org> ``` It will also hopefully be included in 15.0.7 upstream.
