I don't have access to any Linux boxes, so I can't check your code directly. From what I see, PLT section in your ELF should at least contains entries for malloc(), printf, sleep. Try my idea....use gdb to inspect your code.....make a breakpoint at malloc() and printf(). SInce you say you don't use LD_BIND_NOW, once you do the tracing via "step" (any gdb command that delve into the code path), you can see by yourself which entry on GOT/PLT that it takes. regards, Mulyadi. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxx Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
