Description Martin Nagy 2008-08-13 14:22:40 UTC
Description of problem:
nscd occasionally starts to consume all CPU resources.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
nscd-2.8-3.x86_64

How reproducible:
Don't know

Additional info:
After attaching to the loose process, it seems that it's stuck here:

(gdb) bt
#0  0x0000000001088898 in epoll_wait () from /lib64/libc.so.6
#1  0x00007f09dd922132 in main_loop_epoll (efd=16) at connections.c:1786
#2  0x00007f09dd922721 in start_threads () at connections.c:1961
#3  0x00007f09dd91fc8d in main (argc=-567093952, argv=<value optimized out>) at nscd.c:279

Comment 1 Jakub Jelinek 2008-08-15 00:46:35 UTC
2.8-3 is not the latest F9 glibc (2.8-8 is and had a bunch of nscd fixes).
Please test the latter.

Comment 2 Martin Nagy 2008-09-11 16:17:45 UTC
Using 2.8-8 for about a month now and I didn't see this behaviour. Please close this bug report. I will reopen if I run into it again. Thanks.

Comment 3 Ulrich Drepper 2008-09-17 02:51:09 UTC
Fixed in current rawhide release.
