Note  to hackers. Even though this is a lib-c bug, be
aware that many versions of the 'C' runtime library
have a rand() function that can (read will) segfault
in threads or signals.

		glibc-2.1.3
		libc.so.6

Are two culprits. This "little" problem just took me
a week to find. Rand() was used as a source of test
data in a system diagnostic. The diagnostic kept blowing
up. The following code tests for the problem.

//-----------------
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <signal.h>
#include <sys/time.h>

static int spare;
static int inside;
void handler(int unused)
{
    struct itimerval it;
    inside++;
    spare = rand();
    it.it_interval.tv_sec = 0L;
    it.it_interval.tv_usec = 0L;
    it.it_value.tv_sec = 0L;
    it.it_value.tv_usec = 1L;
    (void)signal(SIGALRM, handler);
    setitimer(ITIMER_REAL, &it, &it);
    inside--;
}
void bad(int sig)
{
    char *where;
    if(inside)
      where = "inside";
    else
      where = "outside";
   fprintf(stderr, "Failed %s handler on %d\n", where, spare);
   exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
int main(void);
int main()
{
    (void)signal(SIGSEGV, bad);
    handler(0);
    for(;;)
        (void)rand();
    return 0;
}
//---------------------


Run this for a few minutes.

How about rand_r(); reentrant version of rand()?

It's not.

It's a bug in your program.

You can't just randomly use library functions in signal handlers. You can
only use a very specific "signal-safe" set.

POSIX lists that set in 3.3.1.3 (3f), and says

	"All POSIX.1 functions not in the preceding table and all
	 functions defined in the C standard {2} not stated to be callable
	 from a signal-catching function are considered to be /unsafe/
	 with respect to signals. .."

typos mine.

The thing is, they have internal state that makes then non-reentrant (and
note that even the re-entrant ones might not be signal-safe, since they
may have deadlock issues: being thread-safe is _not_ the same as being
signal-safe).

In other words, if you want to do complex things from signals, you should
really just set a flag (of type "sigatomic_t") and have your main loop do
them. Or you have to be very very careful and only use stuff that is
defined to be signal-safe (mainly core system calls - stuff like <stdio.h>
is right out).

Well, again, I took a very compilcated sequence of events and
minimized them to where they could be readily observed. The actual
problem in the production machine involves two absolutely independent
tasks that end up using the same shared 'C' runtime library. There
should be no interaction between them, none whatsover. However, when
they both execute rand(), they interact in bad ways. This interraction
occurs on random days at monthly intervals. To find this bug, I
had to compress that time. So, I allowed rand() to be "interrupted"
just as it would be in a context-switch. I simply used a signal
handler, knowing quite well that the "interrupt" could occur at
any time. Now, I didn't give a damn about the value returned in
either function invovation. What I brought to light was a SIGSEGV
that can occur when the shared-library rand() function is
"interrupted".  This is likely caused by the failure to use "-s"
in the compilation of a shared library function, fixed in subsequent
releases.

So don't pick on the code. It was designed to emphasize the
problem. It is not supposed to show how to write a signal
handler.

On Linux (unlike Windows), there is _no_ interaction between the
libraries of different tasks.  Neither of them sees changes to the
other's memory space.

If you are seeing a fault, then there might well be a bug, even a
kernel bug, but your test program does not illustrate the same problem.

What is the "bad interaction" that you observed at monthly intervals?
Also a SIGSEGV?

No, this has nothing to do with it.  Unlike Windows and some embedded
environments, Linux shared libraries do not have "shared writable data"
sections.

You have made a mistake.  You program shows a different problem to the
one which you noticed every month or so.

Calling a function from a signal handler while it is being interrupted
by that handler is _very_ different from tasks context switching.
They are not similar at all!  (Yes, signals can be used to simulate
context switches, but not like this!)

Your code interrupts one call to rand() and calls rand() _within_
the interrupt handler.  The inner call and outer call interfere, in a
very similar way to calling it twice from two threads (note: threads
not tasks).  The memory state becomes corrupted.

This is _very_ different from two independent tasks context switching.
Independent tasks do not share the same memory space, not even when
they share the same libraries, so this type of corruption isn't
possible.

Summary: your monthly "bad interaction" is not illustrated in this
test program.  It's a different problem.

Yes. When the call to rand() was replaced with a static-linked
clone it went away.

Well the libc rand() does something that looks like that.

The calling rand() from a handler in a newer libc doesn't seg-fault.

Not with the emulation. The problem is that rand() uses a thread-
specific pointer to find the seed (history variable), just like
'errno' which isn't really a static variable, but a function
that returns a pointer to a thread-specific integer. If this
is interrupted in a critical section, and that same pointer
is used, that pointer is left pointing to a variable in somebody
else's address space. That same problem is observed to happen when
the same shared runtime library was used by entirely different tasks.

On both cases, although it doesn't seg-fault, you can no longer trust
the results to be the same quality of random numbers.

It's an implementation detail that the other versions of rand() happen
not to segfault even though you are calling them incorrectly.  Just
like you can call free() twice on a memory block and it will segfault
with Glibc, but is fine in some versions of BSD.  It's still an error
to do it.

Yes that sounds reasonable.  A newer libc would fix it because newer
libc uses a different method for looking up thread-specific pointers.

When you say "entirely different tasks", do you mean "different
threads in the same process" or "different processes"?

That same problem _can_ happen between different threads in a single
process, but it _cannot_ happen between different processes.

Just curious --- what happens when these functions are interrupted by
signal and signal handler does siglongjmp out of signal?

According to this assumption siglongjmp should not work. Does it handle
these situations specially? I don't understand why is it in specification
if it doesn't work.

I believe it would be very useful to have this information included in
the standard Linux signal(2) manpage.  (I've just verified it's not in
man-pages-1.60.)

What do you think, Andries?

My bad.  SUS references the posix list.  I must have been looking at an 
old function list.  POSIX should be sufficient.

You may also want to mention the SUS async-safe list as well, since 
there are some additional functions there.

OK. You might have included a patch. I made it say

       The  effects  of this call in a multi-threaded process are
       unspecified.

       The routine handler must be very careful, since processing
       elsewhere  was  interrupted at some arbitrary point. POSIX
       has the concept of "safe function".  If  a  signal  inter­
       rupts  an  unsafe  function,  and  handler calls an unsafe
       function, then the behavior is undefined.  Safe  functions
       are listed explicitly in the various standards.  The POSIX
       1003.1-2003 list is

       _Exit()  _exit()  abort()  accept()  access()  aio_error()
       aio_return()  aio_suspend()  alarm()  bind() cfgetispeed()
       cfgetospeed() cfsetispeed() cfsetospeed() chdir()  chmod()
       chown()  clock_gettime()  close()  connect() creat() dup()

       sync()  fork()  fpathconf()  fstat()  fsync()  ftruncate()

       getuid() kill() link() listen()  lseek()  lstat()  mkdir()
