I have a simple C program that spawns a thread; the thread calls into a dlopen'd
shared library. The shared library is in C++ and its lone entry point just does
a throw and catch before returning. We return back into the thread and when the
thread exits it crashes. This happens on at least x86, x86_64 and ia64 on both
SLES 9 and RHEL 4. I'm not sure if the problem is in libpthread or libstdc++ or
gcc...apologies if this ends up being the wrong venue.
$ gcc -o threadtest threadtest.c -pthread -lpthread -ldl -g
$ g++ -shared -o libthrow.so throw.cpp -lstdc++ -g
$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.
$ ./threadtest
thread done, program should exit
Segmentation fault

int ThreadFn(void *arg)
{
int (*throw_entry)(void);
void *handle;
handle = dlopen("libthrow.so", RTLD_NOW);
throw_entry = dlsym(handle, "throw_entry");
if (throw_entry() != 123) {
printf("throw_entry() didn't return 123 as expected\n");
}
dlclose(handle);
printf("thread done, program should exit\n");
return 0;
}
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
pthread_t thread;
void *ret;
pthread_create(&thread, NULL, (void *(*)(void *))ThreadFn, 0);
pthread_join(thread, &ret);
return 0;
