repeatable segfault in spoa-mirror, takes only two HTTP requests
mmelo-yottaa opened this issue · comments
I'm seeing segfault in spoa-mirror when using it to receive HTTP traffic from HAProxy. I'm running HA-Proxy version 2.1.4 2020/04/02 with spoa-mirror v1.2.9 [build 2409] on CentOS 7.6.1810 with 3.10.0-514.16.1.el7.x86_64 kernel. The segfault is repeatable, happening on the second HTTP request I send to HAProxy.
this is backtrace (its repeatable):
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

zipfile includes: haproxy and mirror config files, the HTTP request causing the SEGV, debug tracing showing the SEGV (line 63).
thank you
Hello @mmelo-yottaa,
please check if the latest version of the program solves your problem.
Best regards,
Miroslav Zagorac
Running version 1.2.12 of spoa-mirror, which I believe is beyond the suggested latest version in comment from Aug 17 that was to have solved the issue.
./spoa-mirror -V
spoa-mirror v1.2.12 [build 2415] by Miroslav Zagorac mzagorac@haproxy.com, Jul 19 2020`
These messages continually appear using dmesg
[10196349.094441] sm/wrk: 6[23039]: segfault at 0 ip 000000000040350f sp 00007fcab955eba0 error 4 in spoa-mirror[400000+10000]
Had been experiencing crashes of haproxy and stopping spoa-mirror seems to have solved the issue.
OS is Oracle Linux 7 stable v7.8.0
This is ongoing issue. Could somebody please have a look at my prior comment and advise. Thank you.
Hello @gdriban,
does your bug report have anything to do with @mmelo-yottaa's bug report (except that you reopened that bug report)?
If there is not, i.e. does not refer to debug logs that he uploaded, then your bug reporting does not mean too much to me because I have too little data related to the behavior of the program (except that the program crashes).
it has something to do with it in that spoa-mirror is segfaulting. I can open a new issue if you want
If you want another ticket, please advise what information you'd like included. Thanks
Hello @gdriban,
thank you for reporting the bug.
The bug that occurs can (but does not have to) have the same cause as the one reported by user @mmelo-yottaa. But, we don't know that and that's why it's better to report the bug as a new issue, and we'll close this one.
As for the data that would help to find and fix the bug, it would be good to compile the program in debug mode and run it by setting the debug output to a file. Then, the program that crashes usually leaves a core file that you can load into gdb and find the exact place where the program crashed.
