Subject: disable fork-malloc-exec for non-glibc-systems
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d13349f25ce6160695237cb1715bc3a8e2fa8985;p=platform%2Fupstream%2Fdbus.git

disable fork-malloc-exec for non-glibc-systems

Calling malloc() after fork is undefined behaviour if the process is
multi-threaded. locks held by a thread on fork() will never be released.
malloc() is usally protected by a lock and can therefore deadlock. glibc
is known not to deadlock in this case.

This commit does not rule out other problems on glibc-systems, but fixes an
issue on musl-libc-systems. Only restricting to async-signal safe functions
between fork() and exec() prevents undefined behaviour for sure. See
signal-safety(7).

(cherry picked from commit 3fab06d68f5940cde89fb9c7e647bdc48bc7b253)
