Problem:
Sessiond can sometimes crash at system shutdown. Sessiond is started as root at system boot.
Session is active when shutdown starts i.e. 'lttng stop' or 'destroy' never run.

Configured with:

su_sirpa()
{
    su - sirpa -c "$1" 2> /dev/null > /dev/kmsg
}
   lttng create $LTTNG_SES_NAME --snapshot -o $LTTNG_TELOG_PATH/ > /dev/kmsg
    lttng enable-channel $LTTNG_TRI_CHN_NAME -u -s $LTTNG_SES_NAME > /dev/kmsg
    lttng start $LTTNG_SES_NAME > /dev/kmsg

    ## Create session as sirpa, sirpa then can control this session
    cmd="lttng create $LTTNG_DEF_SES_NAME --snapshot -o $LTTNG_DEF_OUTPUT" 
    su_sirpa "$cmd" 

    lttng enable-channel $LTTNG_DEF_CHN_NAME -u -s $LTTNG_DEF_SES_NAME > /dev/kmsg
    lttng start $LTTNG_DEF_SES_NAME > /dev/kmsg

Following is done to running programs at system shutdown:

# Kill all processes.
echo "Sending all processes the TERM signal..." 
killall5 -15
sleep 5
echo "Sending all processes the KILL signal..." 
killall5 -9

A more complete bt will be provided when debug binaries/libs are in place.

Hi Stanislav,

I notice that these commits are old (2.3-rc2). Can you try to reproduce
against tools and ust master branches ? They are currently at commits:

tools: 8a251cb8ade9db2f560604fa53b3515ca0d60c22
ust: 256175cffb00b15543bd49a4268e6c528bd51fce

Thanks!

  • Status changed from New to Confirmed

  • Target version set to 2.2

So yes, there is a race condition that can trigger this assert.

I'm about to push a fix in master branch and stable-2.2 as well. The commit will close this issue automatically but again I'll would recommend for you to use the latest git head (that will include a fix).

Thanks!
