The customer discovered WRL5 is crashing due to an assert that is
triggered from the eglibc (2.15, the bug here https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4578), however, it seems assertions are no longer present in WRL8, so the defect could happen unnoticed.
I attached an explanation of a test case provided by the customer and a possible patch in the txt file.
1: Create a project with this configuration:
/wr/installs/lx8/wrlinux-8/wrlinux/configure --enable-board=intel-x86-64 --enable-build=production --enable-kernel=preempt-rt --enable-rootfs=glibc-core --with-layer=wr-bsps/intel-x86 --enable-reconfig --with-rcpl-version=0018
2: Compile the source coded provided in the tar file (use the makefile)
3: Start the OS and then run there the testcase
NOTE: The customer reproduced the issue on a Minnowboard, I was able to reproduce it on a qemu. You can access a compiled project in /wr/sandbox/lramirez/cases/00073893/customer_configure_prj/ in 172.18.222.4 that server is configured to use NIS users so you can login there using ssh
