[PATCH 2/2] nss: Protect against errno changes in function lookup (bug 28953)

Florian Weimer fweimer@redhat.com
Thu Mar 10 12:44:23 GMT 2022


dlopen may clobber errno.  The nss_test_errno module uses an ELF
constructor to achieve that, but there could be internal errors
during dlopen that cause this, too.  Therefore, the NSS framework
has to guard against such errno clobbers.

__nss_module_get_function is currently the only function that calls
__nss_module_load, so it is sufficient to save and restore errno
around this call.

Tested on i386-linux-gnu and x86_64-linux-gnu.
