[Issue 9886] New: At "sync" logging, nothing shows how long a write op took on consumers

https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9886 Issue ID: 9886 Summary: At "sync" logging, nothing shows how long a write op took on consumers Product: OpenLDAP Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: needs_review Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: slapd Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: quanah(a)openldap.org Target Milestone: --- If sync logging is enabled on a consumer, there's no etime logged which means it is not possible to see how long a write op took on that consumer. This can be useful information to see how the node is performing, particularly if it is a read only node where there will be no general MOD timing logged. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.

[Issue 9513] New: Enhanced debug output

https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9513 Issue ID: 9513 Summary: Enhanced debug output Product: OpenLDAP Version: 2.5 Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: --- Component: slapd Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: hyc(a)openldap.org Target Milestone: --- While debugging ITS#9479 I needed more information on which threads were doing what actions. Also, when looking for delays/hangs/race conditions, the 1-second granularity of the debug msg timestamp was inadequate. And also, some of the debug output for the Search operation was being done in separate Debug calls for a single line of output. This gets jumbled up pretty badly if other threads are printing output as well. New patch set will extend the debug timestamp to have fractional seconds too; it will use clock_gettime for nanosecond resolution if available, otherwise use gettimeofday for microsecond resolution. Also tweak the Search debug output to only use one Debug invocation per line of output. This is MR!279. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.

While we're at it, might also expose the current bound identity there. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.

[Issue 9577] New: slapd -V should be deprecated
by openldap-its＠openldap.org 15 Dec '25

https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9577 Issue ID: 9577 Summary: slapd -V should be deprecated Product: OpenLDAP Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: slapd Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: smckinney(a)symas.com Target Milestone: --- Sometimes a user's (present one included) ignorance gets them in trouble unnecessarily. The -V option is an example... Normally, when one wants to determine the version of a process, they use -V, or perhaps -v. With slapd, the daemon actually continues to run, which can have negative consequences. The doc clearly states that -VV is probably what the user wants, but is counter-intutive. Who RTFM's before checking the version? -V print version info (-VV exit afterwards, -VVV print info about static overlays and backends) I propose we eliminate the option to allow slapd to continue running after displaying the version. Perhaps we eliminate the -V option entirely, or just make it work the same as -VV. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.

[Issue 9305] New: ldap_connect_to_host: Return code from getaddrinfo() discarded, troubleshooting difficult

[Issue 9816] New: slapcat cordeumps during mdb subtree dump with -s

https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9816 Issue ID: 9816 Summary: slapcat cordeumps during mdb subtree dump with -s Product: OpenLDAP Version: 2.5.11 Hardware: x86_64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: needs_review Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: slapd Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: khoffmann(a)united-internet.de Target Milestone: --- Created attachment 887 --> https://bugs.openldap.org/attachment.cgi?id=887&action=edit gdb backtrace of slapcat run When trying to use slapcat in combination with -b and -s in order to create a LDIF backup of a mdb subtree, slapd crashes with a coredump (please see the attached snippet with gdb output from a reproduced test tree). The problem was reporducible with different mdb databases / suffixes and only appears with option -s. The same dump with -H 'ldap:///ou=users,o=company,c=de??sub?' instead of -s ou=users,o=company,c=de works perfectly fine, as long as the "attrs part" is empty in the ldap-uri. Also using slapcat with -b only (for a full database dump) works fine as well. I'm aware of the fact that -s option is marked as DEPRECATED - I'm not sure if you are going to fix this bug or if you rather take the change to remove the option completely from future major versions. Please let me also know if it's expected behaviour that the -H option doesn't work whenever the attribute part isn't empty and if I should contribute to a documentation update for this edge case.

[Issue 9936] New: slapd attempting free on address which was not malloced

[Issue 9584] New: cn=config replication ops/refresh should pause server

https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9584 Issue ID: 9584 Summary: cn=config replication ops/refresh should pause server Product: OpenLDAP Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: slapd Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: ondra(a)mistotebe.net Target Milestone: --- Looking into this crash: https://git.openldap.org/openldap/openldap/-/jobs/7286 The thread in question is running a plain syncrepl refresh while another thread seems to have done the same. This thread fetched the entryUUID attribute of the 'cn=config' entry as 'a' and in the meantime, that entry has been rewritten, with 'a' presumably cleaned up and returned to the pool, so addressing a->a_nvals[0] is a NULL-dereference now.

[Issue 9972] New: SSS needs READ instead of SEARCH access

https://bugs.openldap.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9972 Issue ID: 9972 Summary: SSS needs READ instead of SEARCH access Product: OpenLDAP Version: 2.6.3 Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: needs_review Severity: normal Priority: --- Component: overlays Assignee: bugs(a)openldap.org Reporter: dpa-openldap(a)aegee.org Target Milestone: --- I have configured an OpenLDAP 2.6 server with dn: olcDatabase=mdb,cn=config objectClass: olcDatabaseConfig objectClass: olcMdbConfig olcDatabase: mdb olcAccess: to dn="cn=bodies,dc=aegee,dc=org" by * search # no problem if this is READ olcAccess: to dn.sub="dc=aegee,dc=org" by * read … dn: olcOverlay=sssvlv,olcDatabase={1}mdb,cn=config objectClass:olcOverlayConfig The content of the tree is available anymously by calling ldapsearch -ZZxH ldap://ldap.aegee.org -b "dc=aegee,dc=org" -s sub . When I modify the call to use SSS: ldapsearch -ZxH ldap://ldap.aegee.org -b "dc=aegee,dc=org" -s sub -E sss=ou:2.5.13.15 it also returns results, but ends with ``` # search result search: 93 result: 50 Insufficient access # numResponses: 3 # numEntries: 2 ``` When I modify above: olcAccess: to dn="cn=bodies,dc=aegee,dc=org" by * read then the access is sufficient. There is no entry called "dn:cn=bodies,dc=aegee,dc=org", or rather the entry shall not be returned on searches and `ldapsearch -ZxH ldap://ldap.aegee.org -b "dc=aegee,dc=org" -s sub` does not return it. These work without a problem: ldapsearch -ZxH ldap://ldap.aegee.org -b "cn=bodies,dc=aegee,dc=org" -s one -E sss=ou:2.5.13.15 ldapsearch -ZxH ldap://ldap.aegee.org -b "cn=bodies,dc=aegee,dc=org" -s sub ldapsearch -ZxH ldap://ldap.aegee.org -b "cn=bodies,dc=aegee,dc=org" -s one This produces Insufficient access: ldapsearch -ZxH ldap://ldap.aegee.org -b "cn=bodies,dc=aegee,dc=org" -s sub -E sss=ou:2.5.13.15 That said client-side-sorting does work without a problem, but server-side sorting requires not only SEARCH, but also READ privileges on dn="cn=bodies,dc=aegee,dc=org". I find this is a bug: SSS requires read-acesss to data, which is not supposed to be returned to the client (dn:cn=bodies,dc=aegee,dc=org). For the additional server-side sorting no additional privileges shall be required, compared to returning the results without server-side-sorting. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the issue.
