Describe the bug
libMangoHud_shim.so is a LD_PRELOAD module, so every symbol that it exports will "interpose" symbols of the same name in any other library, and be called instead of the other implementation.
It looks as though it is exporting more symbols than it strictly needs to, which risks crashes or other badness.
List relevant hardware/software information
- Linux Distribution: anything recent, tested on Arch
- MangoHud version: 0.8.1-1 or git dc30950
- GPU: AMD Vega
To Reproduce
objdump -T -x /path/to/libMangoHud_shim.so
Expected behavior
Only the symbols that MangoHud is intentionally replacing are exported, namely those declared with CREATE_FWD_VOID or CREATE_FWD and hooked with ADD_HOOK:
glXSwapBufferseglGetDisplayeglGetPlatformDisplayeglSwapBuffersglXSwapBuffersMscOMLglXGetProcAddressglXGetProcAddressARBeglGetProcAddress
plus any that are handled non-generically:
Actual behavior
These symbols are exported:
