[Daniel J Blueman]
* Add debian/patches/any/cvs-nscd-crash-fix.diff: address nscd
daemon crashing in mem.c (LP: #256157).
-- Matthias Klose
I've been unable to trigger any crashes or regressions with this updated
nscd in the last 8 days in multiple environments, so am happy it is in
shape for general release. Tags updates.

I've been testing nscd on x86-64 for a few days on two separate systems,
and the fix looks good. I need more exposure on i686 before marking this
verified, which will be done in the next few days.

I backported Ulrich Drepper's (glibc maintainer) upstream nscd fixes,
and have been testing them for a week.
I've attached my debdiff with this, confirming problem resolution on
i686 and amd64 on Ubuntu 9.10.

I have verified this bug is fixed in jaunty in glibc-2.9; I marked this
bug-report as 'fix-committed', since I've attached the tested fix -
perhaps this isn't the right state?

SRU justification:
impact:
1. in use, nscd can frequently crash, thus denying caching, leading to higher
network load and latency on lookups
- therefore high impact in a NFS and/or multi-user environment
2. user may experience notification that nscd has crashed, compromising
desktop
Having traced this a number of times, I have consistently seen this
assertion fail:
nscd: mem.c:335: gc: Assertion `off_alloc = db-head-first_free'
failed.
This occurs during garbage collection, when the code is calculating
slack space in it's tree layout:
ref_t off_alloc = (byte * BITS +
This patch in Fedora 9 looks like the fix, by Ulrich:
2008-06-11 Ulrich Drepper [EMAIL PROTECTED]
* nscd/mem.c (gc): Initialize obstack earlier so that if we jump
out we don't use uninitialized memory.

Various fixes have been made to the garbage collector in mem.c:

This patch includes the various fixes which the current Intrepid nscd's
garbage collector doesn't have:
