journal: Don't hold pointers to journal while remapping
Hi! I was trying out the journal and the journalctl utility sometimes crashed on me. After some debugging, I tracked it down to the fact that next_with_matches() holds the "c" object pointer through the journal_file_next_entry_for_data() call -- which apparently may re-map the journal file, invalidating the pointer. The attached patch fixes this crash for me, but being unfamiliar with the code, I don't know if I'm doing the right thing. This patch is also available from my github repository: git://github.com/intgr/systemd.git https://github.com/intgr/systemd Regards, Marti For the record, here's the original stack trace at the time of remapping: ret=0x7fff1d5cdec0) at src/journal/journal-file.c:330 ret=0x7fff1d5cdf28) at src/journal/journal-file.c:414 ret=0x7fff1d5ce0a0, offset=0x7fff1d5ce098) at src/journal/journal-file.c:1101 i=5705, ret=0x7fff1d5ce0a0, offset=0x7fff1d5ce098) at src/journal/journal-file.c:1147 p=6413608, data_offset=66600, direction=DIRECTION_DOWN, ret=0x7fff1d5ce0a0, offset=0x7fff1d5ce098) at src/journal/journal-file.c:1626 direction=DIRECTION_DOWN, ret=0x7fff1d5ce120, offset=0x7fff1d5ce128) at src/journal/sd-journal.c:533 direction=DIRECTION_DOWN, ret=0x7fff1d5ce170, offset=0x7fff1d5ce178) at src/journal/sd-journal.c:595 src/journal/sd-journal.c:651 From 9266fc6a58065a7c5dab67430fd78925e519dce9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Marti Raudsepp <marti@juffo.org> Date: Fri, 9 Mar 2012 16:23:00 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] journal: Don't hold pointers to journal while remapping This would cause a segfault otherwise.
