Missing parameter in glibc probe points
Issue
- Backport the code to allow for incremental loading of the library list.
- map_complete and reloc_complete have two arguments rather than the three documented in elf/rtld-debugger-interface.txt
- The functionality implements a critical pointer that keeps programs from having to reparse the link map on every library load.
- This has a mesurable impact on the performance of a program and especially HPC clusters as a whole.
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6
