Bug #: 15436
Summary: Don't close or flush stdio streams on abort
Product: glibc
Version: 2.18
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: stdio
AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
ReportedBy: schwab@linux-m68k.org
Classification: Unclassified
POSIX doesn't require abort to close or flush any stdio streams, and doing so
will eventually run into locking problems, since fclose and fflush are not
async-signal-safe, while abort is required to be so.
