glusterfs.git/xlators/features/upcall/src, branch v3.8dev Avoid conflict between contrib/uuid and system uuid 2015-04-04T17:48:35+00:00 Emmanuel Dreyfus manu@netbsd.org 2015-04-02T13:51:30+00:00 28397cae4102ac3f08576ebaf071ad92683097e8 glusterfs relies on Linux uuid implementation, which API is incompatible with most other systems's uuid. As a result, libglusterfs has to embed contrib/uuid, which is the Linux implementation, on non Linux systems. This implementation is incompatible with systtem's built in, but the symbols have the same names. Usually this is not a problem because when we link with -lglusterfs, libc's symbols are trumped. However there is a problem when a program not linked with -lglusterfs will dlopen() glusterfs component. In such a case, libc's uuid implementation is already loaded in the calling program, and it will be used instead of libglusterfs's implementation, causing crashes. A possible workaround is to use pre-load libglusterfs in the calling program (using LD_PRELOAD on NetBSD for instance), but such a mechanism is not portable, nor is it flexible. A much better approach is to rename libglusterfs's uuid_* functions to gf_uuid_* to avoid any possible conflict. This is what this change attempts.

glusterfs relies on Linux uuid implementation, which
API is incompatible with most other systems's uuid. As
a result, libglusterfs has to embed contrib/uuid,
which is the Linux implementation, on non Linux systems.
This implementation is incompatible with systtem's
built in, but the symbols have the same names.

Usually this is not a problem because when we link
with -lglusterfs, libc's symbols are trumped. However
there is a problem when a program not linked with
-lglusterfs will dlopen() glusterfs component. In
such a case, libc's uuid implementation is already
loaded in the calling program, and it will be used
instead of libglusterfs's implementation, causing
crashes.

A possible workaround is to use pre-load libglusterfs
in the calling program (using LD_PRELOAD on NetBSD for
instance), but such a mechanism is not portable, nor
is it flexible. A much better approach is to rename
libglusterfs's uuid_* functions to gf_uuid_* to avoid
