In my case the chain is libdevmapper.so -> libudev.so -> libtcmalloc.so. It is distro specific but I guess other can step across this issue and for a different chain. One just need to link on of the libraries libvirt uses to tcmalloc. > >> >> [1] https://github.com/gperftools/gperftools/blob/6e3a702fb9c86eb450f22b326ecbceef4b0d6604/src/malloc_extension.cc#L85 >> >>> >>>> --- >>>> tests/commandhelper.c | 11 +++++++++-- >>>> 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) >>>> >>>> diff --git a/tests/commandhelper.c b/tests/commandhelper.c >>>> index 1da2834..0f6ce07 100644 >>>> --- a/tests/commandhelper.c >>>> +++ b/tests/commandhelper.c >>>> @@ -94,8 +94,15 @@ int main(int argc, char **argv) { >>>> for (i = 0; i < n; i++) { >>>> /* Ignore the variables used to instruct the loader into >>>> * behaving differently, as they could throw the tests off. */ >>>> - if (!STRPREFIX(newenv[i], "LD_")) >>>> - fprintf(log, "ENV:%s\n", newenv[i]); >>>> + if (STRPREFIX(newenv[i], "LD_")) >>>> + continue; >>>> + >>>> + /* Fix tests if tcmalloc is used in libraries */ >>>> + if (STRPREFIX(newenv[i], "GLIBCPP_FORCE_NEW=") || >>>> + STRPREFIX(newenv[i], "GLIBCXX_FORCE_NEW=")) >>>> + continue; >>>> + >>>> + fprintf(log, "ENV:%s\n", newenv[i]); >>>> } >>>> >>>> open_max = sysconf(_SC_OPEN_MAX); >>>> -- >>>> 1.8.3.1 >>>> >>>> -- >>>> libvir-list mailing list >>>> libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx >>>> https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list >>> >>> Regards, >>> Daniel >>> > > Regards, > Daniel > -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
