           Summary: SSL SHM cache dies with bus errors on
sparc when
                    compiled with Sun CC
           Product: Apache httpd-2
           Version: 2.2.4
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: mod_ssl
        AssignedTo: bugshttpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: alex.kiernangmail.com


Using Sun CC (Sun C 5.8 Patch 121015-04 2007/01/10) using
these options:

-fast -g -xs -v -xstrconst -xtarget=ultra3 -xarch=v8plusa

At line 1221 of ssl_scache_shmcb.c in Apache 2.2.24 we get a
bus error. The 
problem is that given this struct:

typedef struct {
    time_t expires;
    unsigned int offset;
    unsigned char s_id2;
    unsigned char removed;
} SHMCBIndex;

Which is stored in shared memory at offset 0xfe42afba (the
idx variable)

For the code:

(idx->s_id2 == id[1]) && !idx->removed

the compiler generates

ld       [%l2 + 8], %o0

(i.e. add 8 to %l2, dereference it and store the result in
%o0)

in order to retrieve s_id2 and removed in one operation,
only %l2 isn't 
naturally aligned so you get a bus error.
