From: balazs@... Date: 2014-12-17T16:28:32+00:00 Subject: [ruby-core:66912] [ruby-trunk - Bug #10568] segmentation fault after pack & ioctl & unpack Issue #10568 has been updated by Balazs Kutil. File ruby-2.1-rb-str-associated.patch added Attached is a patch, based on [4b146b25](https://github.com/ruby/ruby/commit/4b146b25333c52ca4503dfc3c4215b583e8e9963), which omits the deprecations in String API. ---------------------------------------- Bug #10568: segmentation fault after pack & ioctl & unpack https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/10568#change-50459 * Author: Balazs Kutil * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * Assignee: Koichi Sasada * Category: * Target version: * ruby -v: ruby 2.1.2p201 (2014-08-18 revision 47215) [x86_64-linux] * Backport: 2.0.0: UNKNOWN, 2.1: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- This snippet produces a segmentation fault on rubies on ruby_2_1 branch from git commit [1] onwards and ruby_2_0_0 branch from commit [2] onwards. I was unable to reproduce the issue on the current trunk [3]: require 'socket' SIOCETHTOOL = 0x8946 i = ["lo", "\n"].pack("a16p") s = Socket.new(Socket::AF_INET, Socket::SOCK_DGRAM, 0) s.ioctl(SIOCETHTOOL, i) i.unpack("a16p")[1] This patch [4] fixes the issue for both 2_1 and 2_0_0 branches, although the test case it contains does not produce a segfault (only raises an ArgumentError) on affected revisions.
