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.
Description of problem:
deliberately created crash of ksh was not picked up by ABRT due to failure when generating sosreport:
Jun 19 02:04:50 host-10-0-139-75 abrt-hook-ccpp: Process 27708 (ksh93) of user 0 killed by SIGSEGV - dumping core
Jun 19 02:04:52 host-10-0-139-75 abrt-server: sosreport run failed with exit code 1, log follows:
Jun 19 02:04:52 host-10-0-139-75 abrt-server: sosreport (version 3.9)
Jun 19 02:04:52 host-10-0-139-75 abrt-server: a non-existing plugin (nfsserver) was specified in the command line
Jun 19 02:04:52 host-10-0-139-75 abrt-server: a non-existing plugin (nfsserver) was specified in the command line
Jun 19 02:04:52 host-10-0-139-75 abrt-server: 'post-create' on '/var/spool/abrt/ccpp-2020-06-19-02:04:50-27708' exited with 1
Jun 19 02:04:52 host-10-0-139-75 abrt-server: Deleting problem directory '/var/spool/abrt/ccpp-2020-06-19-02:04:50-27708'
I suspect, this is caused by the recent rebase of sos to 3.9:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1789025
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
abrt-2.1.11-59.el7
How reproducible:
Steps to Reproduce:
1. kill ksh with pickable signal (ie 11)
2. tail -f /var/log/messages
3.
Actual results:
sosreport fails, crash dir deleted
Expected results:
crash picked up in ABRT
Additional info:
This is not the first time, ABRT gets broken by sosreport update. I wonder, if there's a way to set information flow up in order to prevent such a breakage. It would be nice of sos developers to ping their ABRT counterparts when planning to remove / split plugins so ABRT can be updated in sync. Also please note, that this kind of breakage flies under the radar of regular errata testing as it is performed on released RHEL with just ABRT updated.
Since the problem described in this bug report should be
resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a
resolution of ERRATA.
