#48149 ns-slapd double free or corruption crash
Closed: wontfix None Opened 8 years ago by lkrispen.

ds crashes occasionally hen performing a cn=monitor search.

his bug was reported in bz1203338, details there.

The core issue is in libdb, see: bz 1211871, but it could eventually fixed in DS by prebvening db_open calls and memp_stat calls to run in parallel


I wrote a lib389 test and got the following crash: Core was generated by `./ns-slapd -D /root/389TEST/install/etc/dirsrv/slapd-standalone -i /root/389TES'.

with the attached test script I did get a crash in 5 out of 10 runs
I produced 10 crahses with 7 different stack traces, but all in malloc and related to ldbm_back_monitor_instance search. That we see different crash location is quite usual for heap corruptions

{{{
105 #define DB_OPEN(priv, oflags, db, txnid, file, database, type, flags, mode, rval) \
...
109 if ((priv)) slapi_rwlock_rdlock((priv)->dblayer_env_lock); \
109 110 (rval) = ((db)->open)((db), (txnid), (file), (database), (type), (flags)|DB_AUTO_COMMIT, (mode)); \
111 if ((priv)) slapi_rwlock_unlock((priv)->dblayer_env_lock); \
}}}
Should this be "env" instead of "priv"?

well it is of type 'struct dblayer_private_env *', so I called it priv, but maybe it could be penv

Replying to [comment:9 lkrispen]:

Ok. I was just confused because everywhere DB_OPEN is used, the first argument is pENV or mypENV, and here the argument is env instead of priv:
{{{
125 #define DB_OPEN(env, oflags, db, txnid, file, database, type, flags, mode, rval) \
}}}

If it should be priv for the first definition of DB_OPEN, that's fine.

This issue is taken care in 1.2.11.
This is not a problem in 1.3.3 and newer since libdb has the fix.

Closing this ticket. Thanks, Ludwig!
