#49815 Thread gets stuck spinning after upgrade to 389-ds-base-1.3.7.5-24.el7_5
Closed: wontfix 5 years ago Opened 5 years ago by orion.

Issue Description

After upgrade from 389-ds-base-1.3.7.5-21.el7_5.x86_64 to 389-ds-base-1.3.7.5-24.el7_5, after running of some period of time (2-12 hours) a thread can get stuck consuming 100% cpu.

htop thread view show the PID to be 3359. pstack:

From IRC:

<mreynolds> orionp: just curious how long was the server up for before the problem occurred? Any idea how many connections were processed before the issue happened?
<mreynolds> If you still have the access logs from that time "logconv.pl -V" would be useful

<orionp> mreynolds: first time it was about 1.5 hours (before the cpu spin started). Second time about 11 hours
<orionp> logconv takes a while...
<orionp> Lots of : Unindexed Component #457 (notes=U) Search Base: cn=groups,cn=accounts,dc=nwra,dc=com Search Filter: (&(objectclass=ipaexternalgroup)(ipaexternalmember=sSID))

I do see paged searches which is what was supposed to be fixed in 389-ds-base-1.3.7.5-24

That first behaviour is an expected part of nunc-stans. It's designed so that idle threads yield and recheck "in case" they missed a notification sometimes between sleeps. Not my idea, but it indicates an issue with nspr notifications .... I never investigated though.

The second part is the likely cause, but not sure what causes that. Resource leak?

I wonder if this could be a consequence of https://pagure.io/389-ds-base/issue/49765
This bug was observed with async operation. Do you know if some requests are async ?

The original symptom was some hanging connection but I do not know if it was cpu consuming.

@mreynolds, am I correct that #49765 is not included in 1.3.7.5-24

There are paged searches in the logconv output above

@mreynolds, am I correct that #49765 is not included in 1.3.7.5-24

It is not in any 1.3.7 builds - there are no bugzilla's listed in the ticket. @tbordaz do you know if there is a BZ?

Metadata Update from @mreynolds:
- Issue set to the milestone: 1.3.7.0

This ticket #49815 is not due to https://pagure.io/389-ds-base/issue/49848.

#49848 exists in both 1.3.7.5-21 and 1.3.7.5-24

Any progress here? Anything else I can provide to help?

@orion I think not, as there hasn't been much activity. Without a reproducer it's hard to get to the bottom. Are you seeing this issue regularly?

@orion, the RC of that bug is likely identified as connection leak.

To close a connection, DS schedule a closure handler. If an other handler was scheduled at that time, DS cancels it before registering the closure handler. Unfortunately the cancelation may fail (because of the state of the handler) so we have two handlers. It is not supported or does not work well, so that the closure handler is never called.

At the end of the day the event thread is continuously called on that connection because of the closure handle that stay pending.

Could you check, when the 100% CPU occurs that the number of opened connection is increasing.

A possibility to investigate would be to test if it exists a handler before registering the read handler ns_handle_pr_read_ready.

For the moment, we decided to disable NS as we have not identified a fix for this issue.

@tbordaz Reminder that there is that NS patch awaiting review.

For now disabling nunc-stans seems like the best course of action.

Just to state that I do not appear to be seeing this with 389-ds-base-1.3.8.4-15.el7

Just to state that I do not appear to be seeing this with 389-ds-base-1.3.8.4-15.el7

Starting in 389-ds-base-1.3.8.4-10 nunc-stans has been disabled by default. Since we are aware of the many issues with nunc-stans, which are being tracked in other tickets/bugzilla, I closed this out.

389-ds-base is moving from Pagure to Github. This means that new issues and pull requests
will be accepted only in 389-ds-base's github repository.
