#2305 SSSD Crashes when storage experiences high latency
Closed: Fixed None Opened 9 years ago by gprocunier.

We are experiencing some latency issues on our SAN due to unexpected load. During this overload period all writes to the disk block, this in turn blocks our virtual machines running sssd from writing to their cache.

When this write block occurs sssd will often segfault.

The OS running sssd is RHEL 6.5

[root@sdxbin2 ~]# rpm -q sssd
sssd-1.9.2-129.el6.x86_64

[root@sdxbin2 ~]# uname -a
Linux sdxbin2.symprod.com 2.6.32-431.3.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Dec 13 06:58:20 EST 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux


The 3 files assemble to contain a tar of the abrt capture of sssd.

This information can be useful for other developers.

sssd crashed because ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s was called with invalid the first argument (type "LDAP *").

#0  ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s (ld=0x0, dn=0x0, mechs=0xa9cff0 "GSSAPI", 
    serverControls=0x0, clientControls=0x0, flags=2, 
    interact=0x7f9953eadd60 <sdap_sasl_interact>, defaults=0xaacec0)
    at ../../../libraries/libldap/sasl.c:429
        rc = <value optimized out>
        smechs = 0x0

I am not really sure how could sssd got to this state.

(gdb) ptype state->sh
type = struct sdap_handle {
    LDAP *ldap;
    _Bool connected;
    time_t expire_time;
    ber_int_t page_size;
    struct sdap_fd_events *sdap_fd_events;
    struct sup_list supported_saslmechs;
    struct sup_list supported_controls;
    struct sup_list supported_extensions;
    struct sdap_op *ops;
    _Bool destructor_lock;
    _Bool release_memory;
} *
(gdb) p state->sh[0]
$10 = {
  ldap = 0x0, 
  connected = false, 
  expire_time = 1396340809, 
  page_size = 1000, 
  sdap_fd_events = 0xab6bd0, 
  supported_saslmechs = {
    num_vals = 0, 
    vals = 0x0
  }, 
  supported_controls = {
    num_vals = 0, 
    vals = 0x0
  }, 
  supported_extensions = {
    num_vals = 0, 
    vals = 0x0
  }, 
  ops = 0x0, 
  destructor_lock = false, 
  release_memory = false
}

Interesting, I would have thought this bug was solved since 5fe6ca5 but that commit is already in the version the user runs..

I think we need to see the logs to investigate the issue, the connection management is highly event driven and the core only captures the terminal state.

Can we please see the sssd_be logs? Put debug_level=6 (for starters) into the [domain] section, restart sssd and then either attach the logs here or send them to me and lslebodn directly with e-mail.

Thank you for reporting the bug!
