Comment 1 Andreas K. Hüttel archtester gentoo-dev 2017-10-31 14:37:38 UTC
1) could you please try to get a backtrace? 
Easiest way would be to start it from gdb (if you havent done that anyway you may have to rebuild ntp with debug information).
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Quality_Assurance/Backtraces

2) does the problem go away after rebuilding ntp? 
(I realize that this would make further debugging hard...)

3) if ntp still segfaults, what happens if oyu remove -fstack-check from your CFLAGS?
Comment 2 Ortwin Glueck 2017-10-31 16:08:52 UTC
Rebuilding of ntp did not help (I had tried that first of course).

No backtrace unfortunately. It seems to crash during loading within ld. So it might not even be a problem of ntp itself, but entirely within glibc.

I was unable to create debug symbols with:
 FEATURES="nostrip" CFLAGS="-ggdb" emerge -1 ntp
That also got rid of -fstack-check by the way.

Trying with glibc built without -fstack-check.
Comment 3 Ortwin Glueck 2017-10-31 16:19:30 UTC
Woah! Dropping -fstack-check when building glibc-2.25 fixes the problem. I guess that flag better be filtered by the glibc ebuild then.
Comment 4 tt_1 2017-11-08 12:50:52 UTC
Did you add -fstack-check on your own, or is this behavior the general case? 
(to disable for testing you'd choose to set -fno-fstack-check, right?)
Comment 5 Ortwin Glueck 2017-11-08 12:56:09 UTC
I have -fstack-check in make.conf (you guess why):
CFLAGS="-march=native -O2 -pipe -fstack-check"

To disable I have defined separate CFLAGS for glibc via package.env:
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki//etc/portage/package.env
Comment 6 Ortwin Glueck 2017-11-20 09:31:34 UTC
same behaviour when glibc is compiled with gcc-6.4.0

Comment 8 Andreas K. Hüttel archtester gentoo-dev 2018-09-11 15:13:19 UTC
OK we need to figure out if/how we want to handle this on the glibc side.
Comment 9 Sergei Trofimovich (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2019-08-01 23:09:57 UTC
-fstack-check was whitelisted in #607710. The backtrace looks like a bug in pthread_cancel().

Does it still happen on current stable glibc?

Can you post your ntpd config and the exact command to run so I could reproduce it locally?
