In glibc >= 2.34 MALLOC_CHECK_ and MALLOC_PERTURB_ environment variables have been replaced by GLIBC_TUNABLES. Also the new glibc requires that you preload a library called libc_malloc_debug.so to get these features. Using the ordinary glibc system variable detect if this is glibc >= 2.34 and use GLIBC_TUNABLES and the new library. This patch was inspired by a Richard W.M. Jones ndbkit patch Helped-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Elia Pinto <gitter.spiros@xxxxxxxxx> --- This is the second version of the patch. Compared to the first version, the code has been simplified, based on Junio's indications, introducing some redundancy in the setting of the glibc variables covered by the patch (https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220228160827.465488-1-gitter.spiros@xxxxxxxxx/) t/test-lib.sh | 21 +++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 21 insertions(+) diff --git a/t/test-lib.sh b/t/test-lib.sh index 9af5fb7674..b545013a14 100644 --- a/t/test-lib.sh +++ b/t/test-lib.sh @@ -548,11 +548,32 @@ then } else setup_malloc_check () { + if _GLIBC_VERSION=$(getconf GNU_LIBC_VERSION 2>/dev/null) && + _GLIBC_VERSION=${_GLIBC_VERSION#"glibc "} && + expr 2.34 \<= "$_GLIBC_VERSION" >/dev/null + then + USE_GLIBC_TUNABLES=YesPlease + fi MALLOC_CHECK_=3 MALLOC_PERTURB_=165 export MALLOC_CHECK_ MALLOC_PERTURB_ + case "$USE_GLIBC_TUNABLES" in + YesPlease) + g= + LD_PRELOAD="libc_malloc_debug.so.0" + for t in \ + glibc.malloc.check=1 \ + glibc.malloc.perturb=165 + do + g="${g##:}:$t" + done + GLIBC_TUNABLES=$g + export LD_PRELOAD GLIBC_TUNABLES + ;; + esac } teardown_malloc_check () { unset MALLOC_CHECK_ MALLOC_PERTURB_ + unset LD_PRELOAD GLIBC_TUNABLES } fi -- 2.35.1
