From 4b0ddb68b4e76420358589213bc400155fa12e43 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lei YU Date: Fri, 25 Jan 2019 16:43:50 +0800 Subject: Set init_priority attribute for global variables in shared lib The code gets unspecified initializatio order for the global/static variables in a shared library. If unluck, a global/static variable may be initialized in *constructor* function, and then initialized by the default contructor. For exmaple, if `std::unique_ptr var{nullptr};` is initialized in constructor function, below init order may occur: 1. It is initialized in constructor; 2. Then it is initialized as nullptr; And eventually when the code is to use the variable, we got nullptr. We met such issues before on openbmc/openbmc#1581, and the technical details could be found at [this SO question][1] and [this gcc email][2] The solution is to specify the init_priority attribute, to make the global/staic variables inititalize earlier than the contructors.
