Hello everyone,
I've recently found an interesting bug that only occurs when compiling in release mode.
Use of the ZF_LOG library (for normal log output) leads to syscalls being made when the capdl-loader runs. These are invoked via musllibc's __stdio_write, which relies on __sysinfo being set correctly for syscalls to work. When compiling with RELEASE=OFF this works fine, however when compiling with RELEASE=ON, __sysinfo is not set (yet?), and subsequently leads to an illegal prefetch exception when __stdio_write tries to invoke a syscall.
Setting __sysinfo to sel4_vsyscall using gdb during runtime fixes this. I don't really know the correct place to fix this in the code, but I hope that you can provide some hints on where to fix this bug.
Thanks a lot for your help!
Cheers, Ben
