RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Full Backtrace

Description of problem:
The following segfault happen in rpc.gssd when Red Hat Storage

#0 memmove_ssse3_back () at ../sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/memcpy-ssse3-back.S:2588
#0 0x00007fb790aba8e3 in memmove (__len=103, __src=<optimized out>, __dest=<optimized out>) at /usr/include/bits/string3.h:57
#2  xdrmem_putbytes (xdrs=0x7fff5aa23880, addr=<optimized out>, len=103) at xdr_mem.c:145
#3  0x00007fb790ab9fda in gssrpc_xdr_opaque (xdrs=0x7fff5aa23880, cp=<optimized out>, cnt=<optimized out>)
    at xdr.c:414

The full back trace is attached. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gssproxy-0.3.0-10.el7

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start rpc.gssd with a valid keytab
2. mount the Red Hat storage server. 
3.

Additional info:
The problem occurs because the rhel7 client is trying to
set up a GSS context with the server. Security is not
enabled on the server so the request is failed with 
an AUTH_ERROR error.

What nfs-utils and gssproxy package versions ?

> What nfs-utils and gssproxy package versions ?
See above... gssproxy-0.3.0-10.el7
nfs-utils-1.3.0-0.8.el7

Comment 4 Steve Dickson 2015-02-26 16:09:27 UTC
to get the attached back trace I did the following:

Restart rpc.gssd
   systemctl restart rpc-gssd 

Attached to the runnning process
   gdb -p $(pidof rpc.gssd)

Set the following gdb things
   set follow-fork-mode child # gdb will follow the forked child
   handle SIG37 nostop # gdb will ignore SIG 37
   c # continue 

In another window 
  mount ganesha-server:/export /mnt
