Hi there ;)
Strange issue here, every time I issue a "dmesg" as user, the output ends with
\xffffffba\xffffffba\xffffffba\xffffffba\xffffffba\xffffffba\xffffffba\xffffffba\xffffffba\xffffffba\xffffffba\xffffffba\xffffffba\xffffffba (ad nauseum several lines more)
cat'ing /var/log/messages does not result in this behaviour.. I wonder what the hell the system is trying to tell me =)
Any pointers appreciated.
Of course I can interpret that as
\x --> printf() conversion specifier unsigned hexadecimal format
ffffffba --> 4,294,967,226 --> hrmmmmm, something overflowing UINT_MAX at some point ?
Definitively some sort of overflow, unset 'ing MALLOC_PERTURB_ makes the "hey bug here" alert go away. Also does not happend when running with valgrind -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
