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 Mark Wielaard 2021-12-13 10:10:12 UTC
Various tests that use vgdb (the valgrind gdb bridge) and signals crash during the regtest run.

gdbserver_tests/nlsigvgdb                (stderr)
gdbserver_tests/nlsigvgdb                (stderrB)
gdbserver_tests/nlvgdbsigqueue           (stderr)
gdbserver_tests/nlvgdbsigqueue           (stdoutB)

The underlying problem is that valgrind doesn't track (unmaps) the vdso.
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=444481

There is an upstream patch available that fixes the vdso issue just for s390x (it  still doesn't really expose the vdso to the application, that would be a followup fix).

The fix is already being tested in fedora rawhide valgrind-3.18.1-7.fc36

Comment 1 Jesus Checa 2022-01-03 18:11:58 UTC
Verified that nlsigvgdb and nlsigvgdbqueue tests fail with previous build valgrind-3.18.1-5.el9 but do not anymore with build valgrind-3.18.1-6.el9.
