Description of problem:

I'm seeing these occaisionally:

lynx/var/log/messages-20130917:Sep 11 15:58:26 lynx kernel: [  657.517986] rpc.gssd[297]: segfault at 0 ip b741262a sp bff26bcc error 4 in libc-2.18.so[b7395000+1b8000]

Note that I'm not making use of kerberos at the moment so it's not that big of a deal (and perhaps that is the cause).  I probably should just disable nfs-secure.service.  But it probably also shouldn't segfault.  I also see:

[  258.369765] rpc.gssd[364]: segfault at 0 ip 00007fe4ae47c32a sp 00007fffe8a00348 error 4 in libc-2.18.so[7fe4ae340000+1b4000]

Comment 1 Orion Poplawski 2013-10-28 15:36:00 UTC
Disabling nfs-secure seems to be causing problems with automount not being able to mount directories the first time.

Comment 2 Brian J. Murrell 2014-06-25 16:30:38 UTC
I'm seeing this also every time I log in after a reboot.  But I am using kerberos so this is a pretty big deal.

After logging in I have to issue a:

# systemctl restart rpcgssd

to get a functioning rpc.gssd.

I would simply have just filed the abrt report but after generating the stack trace it reports that it's un-usable and refused to go any further.

Opening the abrt working directory and trying to get a stack trace from the corefile manually (after installing the debuginfos) yields:

So yeah, not very useful.  var_log_messages from the abrt report:

Anything else I can do to gather any useful information?

Comment 3 J. Bruce Fields 2014-06-26 18:22:14 UTC
Off the top of my head:

Might be worth running rpc.gssd with -vvv to get more logging.

There's also a -F that will let you run it by hand in the foreground to make it easier to strace or debug.

Is this still on Fedora 19?

Comment 4 Fedora End Of Life 2015-01-09 20:21:03 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora 
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is 
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no 
longer maintained. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will
be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 19 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 5 Fedora End Of Life 2015-02-17 17:47:49 UTC
Fedora 19 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-01-06. Fedora 19 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
