it was observed that it is a bad idea to initialize the entire
infrastructure used by proxychains from the close hook,
because the following scenario will lead to a deadlock:
- it is possible that the dynlinker executes the initializer code of
other shared libs first
- if that code directly or indirectly calls malloc()
- which calls close() if it decided to use an mmap based allocation
- will now call our close(), which does
- call pthread_once which requires a lock
- creates a thread which calls malloc()
- which in turn calls our close() another time
- and our close is still in locked state.
so it seems the only save thing to do is to just get the address
of the original close function, and call that when we're in a
pre-init state.
this may hold for other functions that do lazy initialization as well,
however for those just calling the original function is probably
undesired since that could result in unproxified connections.
it will be needed to analyze on a per-function basis what the best
thing to do is, and finally rely only on the execution of the init
function from the gcc initializer.
