ldso/mips: dlsym() incorrectly matches undefined symbols
check_match() relies on checking for (sym->st_value == 0) to see if the symbol is undefined. This works reasonably well on most architectures, such as ARM or i386: $ readelf -s /lib32/libcap.so.2 | grep -E "\<malloc\>" 17: 00000000 0 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT UND malloc@GLIBC_2.0 (2) However, on MIPS, libbfd puts nonzero data in the st_value field to facilitate resetting the symbol's GOT entry if the library that defines the symbol gets unloaded: $ mipsel-linux-readelf -s libfoo.so | grep -E "\<malloc\>" 74: 00003140 0 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT UND malloc This can cause check_match to report a false positive when examining the external symbol reference. Consequently dlsym() will return a bad pointer to the caller. Use the special MIPS logic from glibc-ports-2.13 to avoid this situation.
