Decoding needs to be liberal here. Otherwise interoperability will suffer as it is well established that there exists many implementations which are not strict in what they send. -- Kurt

Fixed the above, including malformed bitstrings and set/sequences. Except: Need decision on decode(bad INTEGER/BOOLEAN) and encode(bad tag): > - decode.c is quite lax about what it accepts.

I'm inclined to leave that alone, caller's responsibility. API matters: I'll export the new function ber_peek_element(). And if nobody disagrees, the matching function ber_skip_element() even though that is nearly a duplicate of ber_get_stringbv(,, LBER_BV_NOTERM). -- Hallvard

I can confirm that the segfault on slapadd, slapcat, and friends were in fact a result of this bug. I don't have the strace handy which confirmed it, but after applying Howard's patch and repackaging the .deb (Ubuntu Jaunty), I see none of the aforementioned segfaults.

Next time I will also copy the BDB database and dump it in order to see the failing record. Luben

> http://purgatory.spnet.net/~karavelov/faillog There is no corruption. What happens is that back-bdb, when returning the entry from the cache, correctly locates it based on the indexed attrs used in the filter, but at some point decides that the entry is outside the scope of your search: Aug 5 16:44:22 work slapd[17541]: bdb_search: 87 scope not okay This should not happen, since your search is performed with exactly the same parameters used for the original one, and the scope is 1 (onelevel). I wonder what happens there. Could you walk through the failing request with a debugger, and print some values? I'd like to see, from within bdb_search(), line 780 of back-bdb/search.c of re23, the value of op->o_request->oq_search base *ei->ei_parent p.

Ok, this makes sense, as the numbers it was reporting definitely seemed smaller than I was expecting. I bet they are for pieces in the rootDSE. --Quanah -- Quanah Gibson-Mount Principal Software Engineer Zimbra, Inc -------------------- Zimbra :: the leader in open source messaging and collaboration

In any case, this is not specific to the case of empty suffix in the glue database. I could easily reproduce it with a "normal" glued setup, and I was about to start fixing things when the two above questions came to my mind. > I'm also curious why back-monitor develops stats for the other caches but > specifically not for entry cache. I haven't looked in detail, but it makes sense that some operation occurs within the glue database which requires caching something, but not entries. - The entry cache monitor shows the value of bdb->bi_cache.c_cursize; - the DN cache monitor shows the value of bdb->bi_cache.c_eiused, which should be the number of entryinfo structures used; - the IDL cache monitor shows the value of bdb->bi_idl_cache_size. In my very simple tests, I only saw something populating the DN cache, which means some internal operation required to allocate some entryinfo structures that remain 'round. In any case, it's only showing information related to its database structure, it is by no means collecting info from the glued databases. p.

Interestingly, in my case, there's only one real database in play for the glue as it is, since it's rooted at "". All other database definitions come before it (cn=config, cn=accesslog, cn=monitor). I'm also curious why back-monitor develops stats for the other caches but specifically not for entry cache. --Quanah -- Quanah Gibson-Mount Principal Software Engineer Zimbra, Inc -------------------- Zimbra :: the leader in open source messaging and collaboration

If my filter rule is '(&(objectClass=sambaSamAccount)(uid=wvk))' the data is cached the first time, but not returned the second and later time. However when my filter rule is (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=wvk))' it works as expected. Jim
