Synopsis

glibc bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated glibc packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 5.

Description

The glibc packages provide the standard C and standard math libraries used by
multiple programs on the system. Without these libraries, the Linux system
cannot function properly.

This update fixes the following bug:

• Previously, the dynamic loader generated an incorrect ordering for
  initialization according to the ELF specification. Initialization routines for
  depended-upon objects were not being called before the objects, which depended
  on them, were being initialized. This manifested itself only when initializing
  compiled C++ libraries whose global initialization depended upon the global
  initialization of data in other libraries which they were linked against at link
  time, generating a DT_NEEDED entry. With this update, implementation of the
  topological sort algorithm for dependency resolution has been fixed, and
  functions for initialization and termination are now ordered correctly.
  (BZ#745487)
  

All users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
