Dear team
We hope you can help us in discovering where or how we are wrong.
We are providing a new sasl mechanism for third party strong authentication and we are in the final delivery step.
We are current with openldap 2.3.38.
We used strong authentication server to carry out the authorization part of the mech and our backside
(sasl client) is Openldap 2.3.38.
On the client side we have pam-ldap+ssh.
sasl libs are cyrus 2.1.22
os is linux red-hat cent-os 4.7 final
During our functional and stress tests everything works fine but once in a while when openldap crashes
and this happens only, but not always, under a certain condition:
Before explaining such a condition we would like to establish the meaning of some terms:
1) straight authentication session: a simple (not interactive) authentication, being either successfull or not
(right or wrong passcode)
2) interactive authentication session: a complex (interactive) authentication with iterated tcp/ip requests such as
next-token or new-pin
Crash scenario:
one ore more straight authentication scripts are running in parallel, emulating parallel ssh authentication sessions
with either right or wrong passcode;
one interactive authentication session:
in the error-originating session the whole user back-and-forth got his way to the authentication server, that is to say next-token or new-pin procedure comes to a complete end:
user gives its next token or new pin (twice) and the strong authentication is fully accomplished and reported by the authentication manager.
What is wrong is that (by average 2 attempts out of 3) make openldap crash.
Sasl speaking our server-step mechanism closes fine and we expect its dispose step to be called by openldap (by the sasl_server_end)
That is not going to happen being Openldap crashed meanwhile.
Again this happens only but not always when the stress scripts are running.
Does it smell of thread concurrency and safety?
Our different use cases tests run almost always successfully when done individually or in parallel but manually (real people operating).
Conversely when stress test are going on the problem arise very often but not always.
We had the Opeldap crash both on linux and solaris installations though on linux the crash happens some steps earlier than with solaris.
On linux we have had the opportunity to rebuild openldap with some debug instruction inside.
what came out is
connection.c
crashing at:
op->o_tmpfree( op->orb_edn.bv_val, op->o_tmpmemctx );
in both successful and error cases either the values passed and the function address look alike.
op->orb_edn.bv_val shows the distinguished name of the user just logged in (op->orb_edn.bv_len is correctly set with its length).
Based on the function name we guess ldap is about to free the DN allocated storage.
On Solaris9 we had the segfault symptom but we have some more line on the log, one of which shows a almost empty DN (!!!) made just of uid=""

Would you have a clue or a though for us about some further check to do over either our code or compile options,
(maybe particularly on the thread-safe topic)?
Would you suggest some thread safe programming strategy?
Many many thanks

Could you send:
- a stack backtrace of a crash (please keep the binaries and the core, so that we can ask you to print some of the values, if needed)
- the output obtained by running slapd under valgrind --tool=memcheck --trace-children=yes --leak-check=full
- in any case, apart from some indications about where to look, you won't get much help if you work with an outdated version of an obsolete version of OpenLDAP.

Would you have a clue or a though for us about some further check to do over either our code or compile options,
(maybe particularly on the thread-safe topic)?
Would you suggest some thread safe programming strategy?

Pierangelo,
Many many thanks
I'll provide what requested asap
In the meantime we thought a while over it and just liked to provide one more clue: this once-in-a-while problem happens under two conditions: ldap overwhelmed by parallel ssh requests plus a single ssh long-term transaction hanging. What we mean is: when a user is requested for a new token to give, or a new pin, he has to wait until the hard-token-key produces a new software-token number, and this might happen even a minute later (even more for a distracted lazy one). Meanwhile on the server side a opendlap sasl_server-step loop is hanging for the input to arrive and its last round trip might last (hang) one minute or more.
We wonder whether a sort of ldap garbage-collector thread-service or system garbage-collector system-process exist and is triggered in order to release mallocated blocks of storage not referenced by a certain while, and, let's say, it is triggered only when memory thresholds got reached. This would explain why connection.c goes to free the DN block and ends up with a segfault and why this happens once in a while.
Ok please forget my philosophical meditation.
I'll provide what is requested. Besides, what openldap version would you suggest us?
Many Thanks
Francesco Grossi

Could you send:
- a stack backtrace of a crash (please keep the binaries and the core, so that we can ask you to print some of the values, if needed)
- the output obtained by running slapd under valgrind --tool=memcheck --trace-children=yes --leak-check=full
- in any case, apart from some indications about where to look, you won't get much help if you work with an outdated version of an obsolete version of OpenLDAP.

Dear team
We hope you can help us in discovering where or how we are wrong.
We are providing a new sasl mechanism for third party strong authentication and we are in the final delivery step.
We are current with openldap 2.3.38.
We used strong authentication server to carry out the authorization part of the mech and our backside
(sasl client) is Openldap 2.3.38.
On the client side we have pam-ldap+ssh.
sasl libs are cyrus 2.1.22
os is linux red-hat cent-os 4.7 final
During our functional and stress tests everything works fine but once in a while when openldap crashes
and this happens only, but not always, under a certain condition:
Before explaining such a condition we would like to establish the meaning of some terms:
1) straight authentication session: a simple (not interactive) authentication, being either successfull or not
(right or wrong passcode)
2) interactive authentication session: a complex (interactive) authentication with iterated tcp/ip requests such as
next-token or new-pin
Crash scenario:
one ore more straight authentication scripts are running in parallel, emulating parallel ssh authentication sessions
with either right or wrong passcode;
one interactive authentication session:
in the error-originating session the whole user back-and-forth got his way to the authentication server, that is to say next-token or new-pin procedure comes to a complete end:
user gives its next token or new pin (twice) and the strong authentication is fully accomplished and reported by the authentication manager.
What is wrong is that (by average 2 attempts out of 3) make openldap crash.
Sasl speaking our server-step mechanism closes fine and we expect its dispose step to be called by openldap (by the sasl_server_end)
That is not going to happen being Openldap crashed meanwhile.
Again this happens only but not always when the stress scripts are running.
Does it smell of thread concurrency and safety?
Our different use cases tests run almost always successfully when done individually or in parallel but manually (real people operating).
Conversely when stress test are going on the problem arise very often but not always.
We had the Opeldap crash both on linux and solaris installations though on linux the crash happens some steps earlier than with solaris.
On linux we have had the opportunity to rebuild openldap with some debug instruction inside.
what came out is
connection.c
crashing at:
op->o_tmpfree( op->orb_edn.bv_val, op->o_tmpmemctx );
in both successful and error cases either the values passed and the function address look alike.
op->orb_edn.bv_val shows the distinguished name of the user just logged in (op->orb_edn.bv_len is correctly set with its length).
Based on the function name we guess ldap is about to free the DN allocated storage.
On Solaris9 we had the segfault symptom but we have some more line on the log, one of which shows a almost empty DN (!!!) made just of uid=""

Would you have a clue or a though for us about some further check to do over either our code or compile options,
(maybe particularly on the thread-safe topic)?
Would you suggest some thread safe programming strategy?

According to your advice we upgraded OpenLDAP on our linux installations by moving to the latest stable version, that is to say 2.4.11.
So far everything is working as expected with several "long term" signon transations (such as new pin and next token) going parallel with up to 30 straight ssh signon processes (user + passcode).
Neither processes failed nor fault-segmented the OpenLDAP.
We'd like to keep this issue "open" a little bit longer just to confirm the same outcome on solaris9, supposing the customer is available to face the production upgrade.
As soon as we have news on it I'll update/close the subject.
Pierangelo,
So far many many thanks for your valuable help.

Could you send:
- a stack backtrace of a crash (please keep the binaries and the core, so that we can ask you to print some of the values, if needed)
- the output obtained by running slapd under valgrind --tool=memcheck --trace-children=yes --leak-check=full
- in any case, apart from some indications about where to look, you won't get much help if you work with an outdated version of an obsolete version of OpenLDAP.

Dear team
We hope you can help us in discovering where or how we are wrong.
We are providing a new sasl mechanism for third party strong authentication and we are in the final delivery step.
We are current with openldap 2.3.38.
We used strong authentication server to carry out the authorization part of the mech and our backside
(sasl client) is Openldap 2.3.38.
On the client side we have pam-ldap+ssh.
sasl libs are cyrus 2.1.22
os is linux red-hat cent-os 4.7 final
During our functional and stress tests everything works fine but once in a while when openldap crashes
and this happens only, but not always, under a certain condition:
Before explaining such a condition we would like to establish the meaning of some terms:
1) straight authentication session: a simple (not interactive) authentication, being either successfull or not
(right or wrong passcode)
2) interactive authentication session: a complex (interactive) authentication with iterated tcp/ip requests such as
next-token or new-pin
Crash scenario:
one ore more straight authentication scripts are running in parallel, emulating parallel ssh authentication sessions
with either right or wrong passcode;
one interactive authentication session:
in the error-originating session the whole user back-and-forth got his way to the authentication server, that is to say next-token or new-pin procedure comes to a complete end:
user gives its next token or new pin (twice) and the strong authentication is fully accomplished and reported by the authentication manager.
What is wrong is that (by average 2 attempts out of 3) make openldap crash.
Sasl speaking our server-step mechanism closes fine and we expect its dispose step to be called by openldap (by the sasl_server_end)
That is not going to happen being Openldap crashed meanwhile.
Again this happens only but not always when the stress scripts are running.
Does it smell of thread concurrency and safety?
Our different use cases tests run almost always successfully when done individually or in parallel but manually (real people operating).
Conversely when stress test are going on the problem arise very often but not always.
We had the Opeldap crash both on linux and solaris installations though on linux the crash happens some steps earlier than with solaris.
On linux we have had the opportunity to rebuild openldap with some debug instruction inside.
what came out is
connection.c
crashing at:
op->o_tmpfree( op->orb_edn.bv_val, op->o_tmpmemctx );
in both successful and error cases either the values passed and the function address look alike.
op->orb_edn.bv_val shows the distinguished name of the user just logged in (op->orb_edn.bv_len is correctly set with its length).
Based on the function name we guess ldap is about to free the DN allocated storage.
On Solaris9 we had the segfault symptom but we have some more line on the log, one of which shows a almost empty DN (!!!) made just of uid=""

(maybe particularly on the thread-safe topic)?
Would you suggest some thread safe programming strategy?

According to your advice we upgraded OpenLDAP on our linux installations by moving to the latest stable version, that is to say 2.4.11.
So far everything is working as expected with several “long term” signon transations (such as new pin and next token) going parallel with up to 30 straight ssh signon processes (user + passcode).
Neither processes failed nor fault-segmented the OpenLDAP.
We’d like to keep this issue “open” a little bit longer just to confirm the same outcome on solaris9, supposing the customer is available to face the production upgrade.
As soon as we have news on it I’ll update/close the subject.
Pierangelo,
So far many many thanks for your valuable help. Good to hear. Since you made the effort of passing to 2.4 (which I would have recommended anyway), please note that shortly 2.4.14 will be out. I was just looking at the list of fixes since 2.4.13 (and since 2.4.11), so you'll probably want to move to 2.4.14 before your project is over. In any case, feel free to report any further issue you may encounter. I recommend running the server under valgrind anyway, it could help highlighting memory issues like the one you were experiencing.
Cheers, p.

Thank you for the precious hint
We passed it to the customer.
In order to take the right decision do you have a "not binding" indication about the 2.4.11 date. When it is supposed to be released?
Thanks a lot
Francesco

Hi, techteam
We consider the incident closed since everything is working fine by upgrading to OpenLDAP 2.4.11 both solaris 9 and redhat4 configurations.
Many Many thanks

Could you send:
- a stack backtrace of a crash (please keep the binaries and the core, so that we can ask you to print some of the values, if needed)
- the output obtained by running slapd under valgrind --tool=memcheck --trace-children=yes --leak-check=full
- in any case, apart from some indications about where to look, you won't get much help if you work with an outdated version of an obsolete version of OpenLDAP.

Dear team
We hope you can help us in discovering where or how we are wrong.
We are providing a new sasl mechanism for third party strong authentication and we are in the final delivery step.
We are current with openldap 2.3.38.
We used strong authentication server to carry out the authorization part of the mech and our backside
(sasl client) is Openldap 2.3.38.
On the client side we have pam-ldap+ssh.
sasl libs are cyrus 2.1.22
os is linux red-hat cent-os 4.7 final
During our functional and stress tests everything works fine but once in a while when openldap crashes
and this happens only, but not always, under a certain condition:
Before explaining such a condition we would like to establish the meaning of some terms:
1) straight authentication session: a simple (not interactive) authentication, being either successfull or not
(right or wrong passcode)
2) interactive authentication session: a complex (interactive) authentication with iterated tcp/ip requests such as
next-token or new-pin
Crash scenario:
one ore more straight authentication scripts are running in parallel, emulating parallel ssh authentication sessions
with either right or wrong passcode;
one interactive authentication session:
in the error-originating session the whole user back-and-forth got his way to the authentication server, that is to say next-token or new-pin procedure comes to a complete end:
user gives its next token or new pin (twice) and the strong authentication is fully accomplished and reported by the authentication manager.
What is wrong is that (by average 2 attempts out of 3) make openldap crash.
Sasl speaking our server-step mechanism closes fine and we expect its dispose step to be called by openldap (by the sasl_server_end)
That is not going to happen being Openldap crashed meanwhile.
Again this happens only but not always when the stress scripts are running.
Does it smell of thread concurrency and safety?
Our different use cases tests run almost always successfully when done individually or in parallel but manually (real people operating).
Conversely when stress test are going on the problem arise very often but not always.
We had the Opeldap crash both on linux and solaris installations though on linux the crash happens some steps earlier than with solaris.
On linux we have had the opportunity to rebuild openldap with some debug instruction inside.
what came out is
connection.c
crashing at:
op->o_tmpfree( op->orb_edn.bv_val, op->o_tmpmemctx );
in both successful and error cases either the values passed and the function address look alike.
op->orb_edn.bv_val shows the distinguished name of the user just logged in (op->orb_edn.bv_len is correctly set with its length).
Based on the function name we guess ldap is about to free the DN allocated storage.
On Solaris9 we had the segfault symptom but we have some more line on the log, one of which shows a almost empty DN (!!!) made just of uid=""

Compile and link options of mymech:
gcc -I ..... -v -Wall -W -O2 -MT mymech.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/mymech.Tpo -c mymech.c -fPIC -DPIC -o mymech.lo
gcc -shared mymech.lo mymech _init.lo plugin_common.lo -lpthread -lcrypt -lresolv -lc -Wl,-soname -Wl,lib mymech.so.2 -o .libs/lib mymech.so.2.0.22
Would you have a clue or a though for us about some further check to do over either our code or compile options,
(maybe particularly on the thread-safe topic)?
Would you suggest some thread safe programming strategy?
Many many thanks
