Bug summary: [RHEL4] vfprintf() call goes into recursive overflow and crashes with a segfault
|

Description:
|
|
|
|
Description of problem in short (details sent next thru IT):
|
|
|
|
Sporadically, when under load, the client is seeing tibco EMS processes be
|
|
killed by segfaults. Getting a robust diagnosis has proven difficult, but from
|
|
what can be told, it appears that somehow a vfprintf() call is getting into a
|
|
state where it loops with:
|
|
|
|
<snip>
|
|
6 0x008602fa in *__GI___overflow (f=0xf7fe8688, ch=0) at genops.c:240
|
|
#7 0x0083afe6 in _IO_helper_overflow (s=0xf7fe8688, c=Variable "c" is not
|
|
available.
|
|
) at vfprintf.c:2058
|
|
</snip>
|
|
|
|
It recurses for quite some time in glibc and then crashes with a segfault. I've
|
|
just gotten the application binary (stripped unfortunately) and thus could
|
|
actually get something from the core.
|
|
|
|
Customer's analysis:
|
|
we have seen this issue before. What's going wrong is that we are calling
|
|
vfprintf to perform a message trace including the body and the functions in
|
|
glibc are recursing approximately 373909 frames and then it crashed.
