Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
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 Anton Bobrov 2022-09-05 10:01:11 UTC
Description of problem:

The IPA schema compat plugin for RHDS deadlocks on delete post op. One thread is trying to acquire a write lock while in delete post op while several other threads are trying to acquire read locks in bind ops. It is not clear which thread is actually holding the lock/s. No FATAL error messages are reported in the logs for lock/unlock API. Because of this issue the RHDS gets into a "hang" like state where it is not responsive to operations which is obviously a problem. There is one thread that is doing post op plugin ops for add op tho it is not in schema compat plugin. And there are a few threads that just stuck in backend search ops inside bdb code likely because the locks they need are held by thread/s stuck in schema compat plugin operations. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

OS: Red Hat Enterprise Linux release 8.6 (Ootpa)
     Kernel: 4.18.0-372.13.1.el8_6.x86_64

389-ds: 1.4.3.28-6

IPA: 4.9.8-7


How reproducible:

We do not have a local lab reproducer however it happens fairly often on a customer system (just one specific master).


Additional info:

We havent gathered any RHDS PLUGIN level logs as it does not look like they would be of much help to debug this. I see there is DEBUG_MAP_LOCK flag that can be helpful however there doesnt seem to be any way to enable it dynamically. Unless this is a known issue or someone familiar with the related code can pin it as is a debug build with DEBUG_MAP_LOCK enabled is probably the next step to do.
