Subject: [musl] printf segfaults on recent musl versions
Date: Mon, 11 Jan 2021 22:31:21 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CABitn4PwPynB3P9bxUgdTKQg5R4wsXjEXYRswoN8oz9hAtrtwA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

Apologies if this isn't a support forum for musl. I couldn't find any
such portal online.

I'm trying to compile a program with musl libc. Dynamically linked
version of this program works fine, but the statically linked version
segfaults whenever `printf` is invoked. This is how a debugging
session looks like:

5       {
(gdb) quit
A debugging session is active.

        Inferior 1 [process 25984] will be killed.

Quit anyway? (y or n) EOF [assumed Y]

</pre>

This issue appears when linking with recent musl versions (within an
year). 1.0.0 doesn't have this issue. I can call other functions like
'rand', 'strlen' without any issue. `printf` and `puts` are
segfaulting.
