When mcount overflows, no gmon.out file is generated, but no message is printed to the user, leaving the user with no idea why, and thinking maybe there is some bug - which is how BZ 27576 ended up being logged. Print a message to stderr in this case so the user knows what is going on. As a comment in sys/gmon.h acknowledges, the hardcoded MAXARCS value is too small for some large applications, including the test case in that BZ. Rather than increase it, add tunables to enable MINARCS and MAXARCS to be overridden at runtime (glibc.gmon.minarcs and glibc.gmon.maxarcs). So if a user gets the mcount overflow error, they can try increasing maxarcs (they might need to increase minarcs too if the heuristic is wrong in their case.) Note setting minarcs/maxarcs too large can cause monstartup to fail with an out of memory error. If you set them large enough, it can cause an integer overflow in calculating the buffer size. I haven't done anything to defend against that - it would not generally be a security vulnerability, since these tunables will be ignored in suid/sgid programs (due to the SXID_ERASE default), and if you can set GLIBC_TUNABLES in the environment of a process, you can take it over anyway (LD_PRELOAD, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, etc). I thought about modifying the code of monstartup to defend against integer overflows, but doing so is complicated, and I realise the existing code is susceptible to them even prior to this change (e.g. try passing a pathologically large highpc argument to monstartup), so I decided just to leave that possibility in-place. Add a test case which demonstrates mcount overflow and the tunables. Document the new tunables in the manual. Signed-off-by: Simon Kissane <skissane@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: DJ Delorie <dj@redhat.com>
