undefined symbol error

[combab0]

I have no idea what is the matter :(

root@real:~/source/libdheap# LD_PRELOAD=/root/source/libdheap/libdheap.so ./double_free 
./double_free: symbol lookup error: /root/source/libdheap/libdheap.so: undefined symbol: get_begin_canary
root@real:~/source/libdheap# LD_PRELOAD=/root/source/libdheap/libdheap.so /bin/ls
/bin/ls: symbol lookup error: /root/source/libdheap/libdheap.so: undefined symbol: get_begin_canary

get_begin_canary and get_end_canary in src/canary.c have to be static inline instead of inline. This will fix this issue for you.

Thank you @0x64616E69656C! Could you please clarify the reasoning behind it?

@hdarwin I just made the changes, can you test it again?

@DhavalKapil See https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Inline.html last section for reference:

When an inline function is not static, then the compiler must assume that there may be calls from other source files; since a global symbol can be defined only once in any program, the function must not be defined in the other source files, so the calls therein cannot be integrated. Therefore, a non-static inline function is always compiled on its own in the usual fashion.

Thank you @0x64616E69656C again! I get it now.
