732157 – Emacs stuck in infinite loop and eats up all RAM

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.

Doc Type:	Bug Fix
Doc Text:	Emacs did not properly terminate if it was started remotely and the remote client session was closed while Emacs was suspended. Under these conditions, Emacs entered an infinite loop in the code and gradually consumed all available computer resources, which caused the system to become unstable. With this update, Emacs has been modified, and it now terminates correctly when the remote session is closed.

Description T Meyarivan 2011-08-20 04:30:28 UTC

Description of problem:

If my interactive SSH connection is destroyed (timeout, ... ) while my remote emacs is suspended, emacs ends up in an infinite loop and uses up all RAM on the host.
 
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

emacs-nox-23.1-21.el6.x86_64
emacs-common-23.1-21.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:

Every time during the past 20 times, on different machines which same distro.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. SSH into another host running RHEL6
2. Start editing a file using "emacs -nw .... "
3. Suspend the editor using "Ctrl-Z"
4. Kill the SSH session using "kill pid_of_ssh"
5. SSH into the host and watch emacs eat up all the RAM

Actual results:

Emacs eats up all the RAM on the host.

Expected results:

Emacs should catch SIGHUP and quit.


Additional info:

- strace of emacs once it is stuck

Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2011-08-20 04:47:51 UTC

This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated
in the current release, Red Hat is unfortunately unable to
address this request at this time. Red Hat invites you to
ask your support representative to propose this request, if
appropriate and relevant, in the next release of Red Hat
Enterprise Linux. If you would like it considered as an
exception in the current release, please ask your support
representative.

Comment 4 T Meyarivan 2011-08-26 12:54:16 UTC

This bug seems similar to http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=4970

A simple fix to avoid rapid memory consumption is setting ring-bell-function to 'ignore (it still consumes a single CPU - but doesn't trash other processes)

Comment 5 Aaron Knister 2011-09-09 02:14:17 UTC

This issue has resulted in a number of after-hours pages to sysadmins. Why couldn't a fix be back ported? Leaving this issue unadressed in RHEL6 would be disappointing!

Comment 6 Aaron Knister 2011-09-10 19:15:31 UTC

I've found and tested a patch to fix this bug which.

The patch is included in Emacs 23.2a and applies cleanly to the 23.1 code (other than the ChangeLog rejections which is to be expected). I tested a build with the patch 15 times in a row and could not reproduce the previously described infinite loop of memory consumption.

I've included a link to the bug report [1] as well as the GIT commitdiff for the fix [2].

[1] - http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=4970
[2] - http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/commit/?h=emacs-23&id=1857569af70493e9dcd446c8bfb029096b355593

*Please* release an updated emacs that includes this fix :)

Thanks!

Comment 7 Karel Klíč 2011-10-13 14:52:51 UTC

Created attachment 528044 [details]
Proposed patch

Thank you. I have tested the patch and it works well.

Comment 8 Christian Horn 2011-10-24 14:30:25 UTC

Another workaround maybe relevant for some folks is to wrap the emacs session in a screen session.

When the ssh session is killed the screen session stays alive.

Comment 9 Christian Horn 2011-10-24 15:23:10 UTC

On shell servers ulimit could help to at least restrict the memory emacs can use up.

Comment 11 Christian Horn 2011-10-25 15:50:02 UTC

Is it possible to get a testpackage including the proposed patch so the customer can verify it?

With this verification we will request 6.1.z then.

Comment 13 Christian Horn 2011-10-26 12:59:30 UTC

Thanks, are we allowed to provide that to the customer as testpackage?

Comment 14 Karel Klíč 2011-10-26 13:10:29 UTC

*** Bug 747652 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Comment 16 Christian Horn 2011-10-26 14:14:08 UTC

Thanks, testpackages handed out.

Was now made aware that we can hand these out without further approvals to partners atleast, while reminding of the status as 'testpackage' and that no further testing has been done with the package.

Comment 17 Christian Horn 2011-10-28 09:46:24 UTC

Could we get acks on this one?

Comment 18 Ari Lemmke 2011-11-08 22:18:08 UTC

What's the status of this bug?

Has caused lots of trouble.

Comment 19 Christian Horn 2011-11-09 08:06:47 UTC

My customer is still testing.

Another possible workaround: installation of the emacs package instead of emacs-nox.  The only downside I see is increased ressource consumption, and pulling in more dependencies.

Comment 20 Christian Horn 2011-11-09 10:24:29 UTC

Customer verified the scratch build from above fixes the problem.

Investigating now if using package 'emacs' is an option with the customer.

Comment 22 Ari Lemmke 2011-11-09 10:46:52 UTC

Normally the first thing I do is yum remove emacs; yum install emacs-nox.

But it could be done through a wrapper in ~/bin/emacs like exec /usr/bin/emacs -nw $@

Comment 29 Miroslav Svoboda 2012-01-09 12:23:34 UTC

    Technical note added. If any revisions are required, please edit the "Technical Notes" field
    accordingly. All revisions will be proofread by the Engineering Content Services team.
    
    New Contents:
Emacs did not properly terminate if it was started remotely and the remote client session was closed while Emacs was suspended. Under these conditions, Emacs entered an infinite loop in the code and gradually consumed all available computer resources, which caused the system to become unstable. With this update, Emacs has been modified, and it now terminates correctly when the remote session is closed.

Comment 30 Brian Smith 2012-02-15 16:55:56 UTC

This was plaguing us, too.  I'm baffled that this is now 6 months old and still not an errata.

> I'm baffled that this is now 6 months old and still not an errata.

For RHEL6.2, this issue has been addressed through
<http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2012-0042.html> issued on 2012-01-23, as covered in <https://access.redhat.com/kb/docs/DOC-69626>.

This bug here just tracks the inclusion of that fix into RHEL6.3.

Comment 32 Brian Smith 2012-02-15 17:58:55 UTC

Thanks!  Guess I missed that one.

Comment 33 Ari Lemmke 2012-02-15 21:11:50 UTC

Have killed lots of important machines due this bug. Machines running data bases, RHEV managers, important virtual machines, IPA server, and even VPN machines running the one and only management link to a customer - power button rules!

Hee hee...

Please fix this bug.

Comment 35 Ari Lemmke 2012-02-15 21:36:48 UTC

Have already installed _2.1 rpms to most of the systems.

Huh .. at the moment of writing realized customer's main nfs server ..

Sorry for over dramatizing.

Comment 36 Ari Lemmke 2012-02-15 21:44:13 UTC

Have to mention - have been BOFH for 27 years, and this bug has been
most devastating/caused more problems/corruption than have managed to do
in my whole career.

(Have seen these kind of "features" during the '80s - emacs already had this
bug - think it was something like 1988, when it did not notice HUP and
started to eat system resources, before that ~1986 it did not notice HUP and
one could have same pty when using telnet, i.e. ending up to someone else's emacs
session).
