Actually, even though ldd seems confused, running the program seems to
use the right ld.so:

efficios@compudjdev:~/test/libc-sym$ ./a
__rseq_handled main: 1 0x55f0ec915020
__rseq_abi.cpu_id main: 28 0x7f54f6c2d4c0
efficios@compudjdev:~/test/libc-sym$ LD_PRELOAD=./s.so ./a
__rseq_handled s.so: 1 0x557350bc6020
__rseq_abi.cpu_id s.so: -1 0x7fe2f30f2680
__rseq_handled main: 1 0x557350bc6020
__rseq_abi.cpu_id main: 27 0x7fe2f30f2680

But my original issue remains: if I define a variable called __rseq_handled
within either the main executable or the preloaded library, it overshadows
the libc one:

efficios@compudjdev:~/test/libc-sym$ ./a
__rseq_handled main: 0 0x56135fd5102c
__rseq_abi.cpu_id main: 29 0x7fcbeca6d5a0
efficios@compudjdev:~/test/libc-sym$ LD_PRELOAD=./s.so ./a
__rseq_handled s.so: 0 0x558f70aeb02c
__rseq_abi.cpu_id s.so: -1 0x7fdca78b7760
__rseq_handled main: 0 0x558f70aeb02c
__rseq_abi.cpu_id main: 27 0x7fdca78b7760

Which is unexpected.

This is with my dev branch at this commit:

https://github.com/compudj/glibc-dev/commit/f0d4e60e5d0ceb0c2642f99da5af61b6ad988531

What am I missing ?

Thanks,

Mathieu
