#11318 closed Bug Report - Crash (fixed)

Segfault in mythbackend (mainserver/autoexpire?)

Description

I am experiencing a segfault in mythbackend, compiled on Centos 6.3 from master, using QT 4.8.4 (also present on QT 4.8.3). The setup is non-standard, but I believe that this is a generic issue (possibly being hit by the fact the system is an edge case). Symptoms are a segfault, when the system is relatively idle. I originally thought that it was triggered shortly after a recording finished, but, after furthther testing this has not been the case. I have not yet been able to trigger the fault at will. It is generally repeatable, usually between 1-6 hours, I don't think that it has been over 48 hours to trigger since I started looking for it. Here is a snippet of code from mainserver.cpp which I believe is the fault. To me, it would seem that the incrementation of 'it' in the section is not needed, and could be the cause. But, I don't see why this isn't hitting more people if it is. This is starting at line 4667:


void MainServer::GetFilesystemInfos(QList<FileSystemInfo> &fsInfos)
{
    QStringList strlist;
    FileSystemInfo fsInfo;

    fsInfos.clear();

    BackendQueryDiskSpace(strlist, false, true);

    QStringList::const_iterator it = strlist.begin();
    while (it != strlist.end())
    {
        fsInfo.setHostname(*(it++));
        fsInfo.setPath(*(it++));
        fsInfo.setLocal((*(it++)).toInt() > 0);
        fsInfo.setFSysID(-1);
        ++it;
        fsInfo.setGroupID((*(it++)).toInt());
        fsInfo.setBlockSize((*(it++)).toInt());
        fsInfo.setTotalSpace((*(it++)).toLongLong());
        fsInfo.setUsedSpace((*(it++)).toLongLong());
        fsInfo.setWeight(0);
        fsInfos.push_back(fsInfo);
    }

Snippet from backtrace (full crash attached). Sorry but the line number changed (it is the one immediately after the '++it;') in the current head.

        __FUNCTION__ = "GetFilesystemInfos"
        fsInfo = {<QObject> = {<No data fields>},

Both my begin and end are 0, I think that the while line should possibly be changed from: while (it != strlist.end()) to: while (it < strlist.end()) And possibly the 'it++;' removed. I don't think that the code should have been run anyway though (given that begin and end should both return 0, or the same pointer).

By applying the following patch, which is as far as I know more syntactically correct, then the particular segfault doesn't occur.

        fsInfo.setUsedSpace((*(it++)).toLongLong());
        fsInfos.push_back(fsInfo);
    }
    strlist.clear();

I don't know git very well, is there any way of finding out who added the comment at 4588: ++it;? It seems to me a line asking for trouble, but intentionally added.

comment:3 Changed 11 years ago by gregorio.gervasio@…

I think this may be related to ticket #11316. I ran into the exact same segfault while debugging that one. I think what is happening is that when the master issues a QUERY_FREE_SPACE to a slave backend, it may receive an unexpected BACKEND_MESSAGE event before the actual response. Since the event message does not match the string list format expected by the parsing code shown above, it can cause a segfault.

Here is an example in one of my logs (-v socket,network --loglevel debug):

I am not sure that this is related to 11316. Since last night and this afternoon, the protocol version was incremented (without me realising). I was able to reproduce the bug with the master running a newer protocol than the slave. This should have meant that the slave was not having messages accepted by the master I believe, and thus the messages you are seeing would not have been accepted by the master in order to produce the problem. I attach a patch which appears to work for me.

comment:5 Changed 11 years ago by verycoldpenguin@…

Please do not use patch.txt (Patch 1). Although it neatly stops the segfault, it completely renders useless the two pieces of code :)

Hello Gregorio, I am sorry, it looks like you might be right. I made the assumption that if the protocol versions were different, then the master and slave backends would not communicate. However, it appears that although the slave may not connect to the master if the version is different, the master can connect to the slave. Perhaps this should be listed as a separate bug, or perhaps it is intentional, either way it is a pain in this instance.

I have attached a patch2. This is an ugly patch, it has many debug/log prints and areas commented out. With this, it can be seen that the system correctly determines information from the local database. It also shows that often it does manage to communicate with the remote backend (although again whilst this was running, there was a protocol mis-match, 76 slave ->77 master). A lot of the time the correct information was returned (the number of lines being a multiple of 8). However, often, the number of lines being returned (after the local determination) is not a multiple of 8. This would suggest that the information returned was truncated. In these instances, the patch2 supplied will ignore data that doesn't divide by 8. This masks the symptoms of the problems, meaning that the segfault will not occur. However, investigation should be made as to how to fix these truncations.

I will apply the patch from 11316 and see whether I see any more instances of 11318. I think however that a refined version of patch2 would be worthwhile incorporating anyway, in case communication problems occur from elsewhere in the future.

comment:6 Changed 11 years ago by verycoldpenguin@…

Here is output (with patch2 incorporated). The information displayed is the number of lines entered into the strlist array, which is used to determine the filesystem info. The filesystem info is ordered information (directory, hostname, etc. etc.) one item per line. This means that 8 lines should complete 1 record. For my system, the correct response for a running slave backend should be 48 items. 32 items occur if the backend was not contactable. The 81 demonstrates 11316 I believe.

Any progress on this, since upgrading from a smoothly working 0.26 to 0.27, with a slave backend connected, the master backend will eventually segfault. If slave backends are not connected the master backend is stable.

Make sure the result is a list of exactly 8 as that’s what is expected in followup code.

Fixes #11318

I updated to latest of the master branch this afternoon v0.27-beta-54-g0614c98 but I am seeing issues, log snippets below:

I think this is affecting recording and possibly frontend usage, not had much time to examine it, certainly there seem to be a lot of failed recordings. Happy to open a further ticket if wanted? dave s

while it's a consequence of not crashing anymore, it's not the same problem... so open a new ticket
