Besides, if the memory is freed before, the csize of this chunk should be the same with next chunk's psize. And the chunk's next and prev pointer should point at . For example, the 3rd case. #0 0x0045e320 in a_crash () at src/malloc/malloc.c:465 #1 free (p=0x7b81e0) at src/malloc/malloc.c:465 psize csize prev next 0x7b81d8: 0x11 0x30 0x4 0x3d0504 0x7b81e8: 0x3d0268 0x0 0x0 0x0 0x7b81f8: 0x7b8210 0x0 0x0 0x0 0x7b8208: 0x31 0x40 0x60ed30 0x60ed30 Best regards！ ————————————————————— 徐 露 全志科技 事业一部 MOBI：+86 13425063650 ADDR：广东省珠海市高新区唐家湾镇科技2路9号 MAIL：xulu@allwinnertech.com ------------------------------------------------------------------ 发件人：徐露 发送时间：2018年6月4日(星期一) 16:45 收件人：musl 主　题：SIGSEGV and SIGILL at malloc/free on ARM926 Hi all, I use Openwrt project and the version of musl libc is 1.1.16. I have been experiencing random crashes when running customer's application. From the coredump files, the segfault looks like a memory corruption issue. But when I add some malloc and free log, the issues did not occur. After analyzing several coredump files, I found that the last bit of cszie in chunk has seemed to be set from 1 to 0. This is very strange and I don't have many ideas how to go further. Could you please give us some pointers, thanks! I can supply more details as needed. This is the unbin and free function from src/malloc/malloc.c. 224 static void unbin(struct chunk *c, int i) 225 { 226 if (c->prev == c->next) 227 a_and_64(&mal.binmap, ~(1ULL<prev->next = c->next; 229 c->next->prev = c->prev; 230 c->csize |= C_INUSE; 231 NEXT_CHUNK(c)->psize |= C_INUSE; 232 } 450 void free(void *p) 451 { 452 struct chunk *self = MEM_TO_CHUNK(p); 453 struct chunk *next; 454 size_t final_size, new_size, size; 455 int reclaim=0; 456 int i; 457 458 if (!p) return; 459 460 if (IS_MMAPPED(self)) { 461 size_t extra = self->psize; 462 char *base = (char *)self - extra; 463 size_t len = CHUNK_SIZE(self) + extra; 464 /* Crash on double free */ 465 if (extra & 1) a_crash(); 466 __munmap(base, len); 467 return; 468 } ...... 531 } Here are some backtraces and memory dump I got. 1) In this case, the coredump shows that c->prev->next is the error. But from the memory context, the csize of chunk(0x1d12608) should be 0x31, not 0x30.
