[ Upstream commit 5bf1557e3d ]
test_progs uses glibc specific functions backtrace() and
backtrace_symbols_fd() to print backtrace in case of SIGSEGV.
Recent commit (see fixes) updated test_progs.c to define stub versions
of the same functions with attriubte "weak" in order to allow linking
test_progs against musl libc. Unfortunately this broke the backtrace
handling for glibc builds.
As it turns out, glibc defines backtrace() and backtrace_symbols_fd()
as weak:
$ llvm-readelf --symbols /lib64/libc.so.6 \
| grep -P '( backtrace_symbols_fd| backtrace)$'
4910: 0000000000126b40 161 FUNC WEAK DEFAULT 16 backtrace
6843: 0000000000126f90 852 FUNC WEAK DEFAULT 16 backtrace_symbols_fd
So does test_progs:
$ llvm-readelf --symbols test_progs \
| grep -P '( backtrace_symbols_fd| backtrace)$'
2891: 00000000006ad190 15 FUNC WEAK DEFAULT 13 backtrace
11215: 00000000006ad1a0 41 FUNC WEAK DEFAULT 13 backtrace_symbols_fd
In such situation dynamic linker is not obliged to favour glibc
implementation over the one defined in test_progs.
Compiling with the following simple modification to test_progs.c
demonstrates the issue:
$ git diff
...

Stack trace:

Resolve this by hiding stub definitions behind __GLIBC__ macro check
instead of using "weak" attribute.
