Hi,

after upgrading my embedded distribution from eglibc-2.15 to 2.16 i get libc related segfaults with every program. Because this distro uses shell based init scripts and busybox, which also segfaults provides the shell i cant boot into the system with eglibc-2.16. With eglibc-2.15 all is working.

I have tried to boot in to a system with eglibc-2.15 and copy the eglibc-2.16 filessystem to a writabable location in /storage:
     root ~ # LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/storage/system/lib/ /storage/system/bin/busybox
     Segmentation fault

if i replace /storage/system/lib/libc.so.6 with the one from eglibc-2.15 system:
WARNING: You should replace all core libraries with the 2.15 versions. The dynamic linker and libc share state and should be at matching versions.

     root ~ # LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/storage/system/lib/ /storage/system/bin/busybox
     BusyBox v1.20.2 (2012-07-19 08:32:53 CEST) multi-call binary.

     ...

how i can debug this system to get more infos to provide to find the issue? i have GDB and STRACE installed on the system, if i run gdb:
     root ~ # gdb /storage/system/bin/busybox
     GNU gdb (GDB) 7.4.50.20120716
     ...
     (gdb) set environment LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/storage/system/lib/
     (gdb) run
     Starting program: /storage/system/bin/busybox
     During startup program terminated with signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
     (gdb) bt
     No stack.
This is likely a crash in the dynamic loader.

You need to debug the dynamic loader.

Start by running with LD_DEBUG=all and see how far you get.

Cheers,
Carlos.
thanks much!

i get this output: http://pastebin.com/udL0kgn3

is this a known and already reported issue?

Stephan
