Here is my code:
#pragma comment (linker, "/INCLUDE:_tls_used")
#pragma comment (linker, "/INCLUDE:p_tls_callback1")
#pragma const_seg(push)
#pragma const_seg(".CRT$XLAAA")
EXTERN_C const PIMAGE_TLS_CALLBACK p_tls_callback1 = tls_start_protect;
#pragma const_seg(pop)
and following piece of code is directly called by tls_start_protect.
char buf[10];
sprintf_s(buf, 10, "hello\n");
and it crashes.

Similarly family of _vscprintf(format, args) also crash in __crtFlsGetValue.
I wonder it's too early to call family of printfs, before which, initialization haven't been done. What I know is that TLS callback(Only DLL_PROCESS_ATTACH) is executed after 'ntdll!Ldr*' load all dependent modules and before 'EOP'.
Question:
Any detail about the initialization of _vscprintf, is it done by "CRT" in some CPP constructors' code???
Any other restriction of TLS callback???
If I do need to call _vscprintf in TLS Callback, how? (somehow, I just wanna print before main)
you use static linked CRT - this is visible from your stack trace. static linked CRT in exe initialized after exe entry point is called. but tls callback on DLL_PROCESS_ATACH called before exe entry point. in this case your static CRT yet not initialized and any call to this CRT code can crash. solution - use dynamic linked CRT in separate DLL - in this case it already will be initialized before TLS callback
