[Gluster-devel] Another segfault on client side (only sporadic)

[Bernhard J. M. Grün]

Hello developers,

We just discovered another segfault on client side. At the moment we
can't give you more information than our version number, a back trace
and our client configuration.

We use version 1.3.0 with patches up to patch-449.

The back trace looks as the follows:
Core was generated by `[glusterfs]
                              '.
Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault.

And here is our client configuration for that machine:
### Add client feature and attach to remote subvolume
volume client1
  type protocol/client
  option transport-type tcp/client     # for TCP/IP transport
  option remote-host 10.1.1.13     # IP address of the remote brick
  option remote-port 9999              # default server port is 6996
  option remote-subvolume iothreads        # name of the remote volume
end-volume

### Add client feature and attach to remote subvolume
volume client2
  type protocol/client
  option transport-type tcp/client     # for TCP/IP transport
  option remote-host 10.1.1.14     # IP address of the remote brick
  option remote-port 9999              # default server port is 6996
  option remote-subvolume iothreads        # name of the remote volume
end-volume

volume afrbricks
  type cluster/afr
  subvolumes client1 client2
  option replicate *:2
  option self-heal off
end-volume

volume iothreads    #iothreads can give performance a boost
   type performance/io-threads
   option thread-count 16
   subvolumes afrbricks
end-volume

### Add writeback feature
volume bricks
  type performance/write-behind
  option aggregate-size 0  # unit in bytes
  subvolumes iothreads
end-volume


We hope you can easily find and fix that error. Thank you in advance
