Hello All,
I am trying to call a function from the calling main program from a dlopened library function, below is the entire code, when I execute it it crashes with sigill. Can you guys help me out I guess I am missing out on the linker flag or something here. besides I am new to AIX and really appreciate your help on this.
Code:
# cat main.c
#include
#include
#include
#include
typedef void (*FP)(void);
void printme (void) {
printf (“printed me hurray!!!n”);
}
int
main( int argc, char** argv )
{
void* handle;
void* symptr;
FP fp;
/*** Load the shared object containing the definition of the ***/
/*** function . defsym(). ***/
if ( NULL == ( handle = dlopen( “./libdefsym.so”, RTLD_NOW ) ) ){
perror( dlerror() );
exit( 1 );
}
/**** Obtain the address of the function defsym. ***/
if ( NULL == ( symptr = dlsym( handle, “defsym” ) ) ) {
if ( 0 == errno ) {
fprintf( stderr, “Symbol defsym not found. Exitingn”
);
exit( 1 );
}
perror( dlerror() );
exit( 1 );
}
fp = ( FP )symptr;
/*** Call the function via the obtained function address. ***/
fp();
/*** Unload the previously loaded shared object. ***/
if ( 0 != ( dlclose( handle ) ) ) {
perror( dlerror() );
exit( 1 );
}
exit( 0 );
}

defsym()
{
printf( “defsym called.n” );
printme();
}
cat toexp.exp
