This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket: https://fedorahosted.org/389/ticket/335 The code that resets the original entries/mods/etc. when retrying deadlocked transactions in ldbm_back_delete et. al. need to be cache aware when deleting entries that are cached - for example, ldbm_delete.c:485 {{{ backentry_free(&e); }}} The problem is that e is cached, so cannot be freed like this. Freeing cached entries seems to cause problems in the server, assertion failures, other crashes.

The attached test scripts and steps in this comment can be shared for verifying this bug. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=834096#c7 After running the test, run search all. ldapsearch -x ... -b "dc=example,dc=com" >> OUTPUT0 Restart the server and run search all, again. ldapsearch -x ... -b "dc=example,dc=com" >> OUTPUT1 The 2 outputs OUTPUT0 and OUTPUT1 are supposed to be identical (to ensure the cache reflects the entries in DB).
