Hi

I have one question in exit().
Why is the __libc_exit_fini executed after __funcs_on_exit?  If some finalized functions in .fini_array access global variables which is registered by __cxa_atexit and will be release in __funcs_on_exit, we may run into some crash during __libc_exit_fini executaion.

_Noreturn void exit(int code)
{
    __funcs_on_exit();
    __libc_exit_fini();
    __stdio_exit();
    _Exit(code);
}


In bionic, I found the fini_array functions may be registered at the last before we execute main function and called firstly in exit(before global variables release) . Its order looks like completely opposite to musl.

__noreturn void __libc_init(void* raw_args,
                           void (*onexit)(void) __unused,
                           int (*slingshot)(int, char**, char**),
                           structors_array_t const * const structors) {
......
 if (structors->fini_array) {
   __cxa_atexit(__libc_fini,structors->fini_array,nullptr);
 }
......
 exit(slingshot(args.argc - __libc_shared_globals()->initial_linker_arg_count,
                args.argv + __libc_shared_globals()->initial_linker_arg_count,
                args.envp));
}

Best
Li
