Subject: [PATCH] Base.reset: plug (temporary) leak of libsolv's page file
descriptors
Consider the following call paths (mixed Python and C), extending from
livecd-creator down to libsolv:
main [livecd-tools/tools/livecd-creator]
install() [livecd-tools/imgcreate/creator.py]
fill_sack() [dnf/dnf/base.py]
_add_repo_to_sack() [dnf/dnf/base.py]
load_repo() [libdnf/python/hawkey/sack-py.cpp]
dnf_sack_load_repo() [libdnf/libdnf/dnf-sack.cpp]
write_main() [libdnf/libdnf/dnf-sack.cpp]
repo_add_solv() [libsolv/src/repo_solv.c]
repopagestore_read_or_setup_pages() [libsolv/src/repopage.c]
dup()
write_ext() [libdnf/libdnf/dnf-sack.cpp]
repo_add_solv() [libsolv/src/repo_solv.c]
repopagestore_read_or_setup_pages() [libsolv/src/repopage.c]
dup()
The dup() calls create the following file descriptors (output from
"lsof"):
> COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
> python3 6500 root 7r REG 8,1 25320727 395438 /var/tmp/imgcreate-mytcghah/install_root/var/cache/dnf/fedora.solv (deleted)
> python3 6500 root 8r REG 8,1 52531426 395450 /var/tmp/imgcreate-mytcghah/install_root/var/cache/dnf/fedora-filenames.solvx
These file descriptors are *owned* by the DnfSack object (which is derived
from GObject), as follows:
sack->priv->pool->repos[1]->repodata[1]->store.pagefd = 7
sack->priv->pool->repos[1]->repodata[2]->store.pagefd = 8
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
| | | | | | |
| | | | | | int
| | | | | Repopagestore [libsolv/src/repopage.h]
| | | | Repodata [libsolv/src/repodata.h]
| | | struct s_Repo [libsolv/src/repo.h]
| | struct s_Pool (aka Pool) [libsolv/src/pool.h]
| DnfSackPrivate [libdnf/libdnf/dnf-sack.cpp]
DnfSack [libdnf/libdnf/dnf-sack.h]
The file descriptors are *supposed* to be closed on the following call
path:
main [livecd-tools/tools/livecd-creator]
install() [livecd-tools/imgcreate/creator.py]
close() [livecd-tools/imgcreate/dnfinst.py]
close() [dnf/dnf/base.py]
reset() [dnf/dnf/base.py]
_sack = None
_goal = None
_transaction = None
...
dnf_sack_finalize() [libdnf/libdnf/dnf-sack.cpp]
pool_free() [libsolv/src/pool.c]
pool_freeallrepos() [libsolv/src/pool.c]
repo_freedata() [libsolv/src/repo.c]
repodata_freedata() [libsolv/src/repodata.c]
repopagestore_free() [libsolv/src/repopage.c]
close()
Namely, when dnf.Base.reset() [dnf/dnf/base.py] is called with (sack=True,
goal=True), the reference counts of the objects pointed to by the "_sack",
"_goal" and "_transaction" fields are supposed to reach zero, and then, as
part of the DnfSack object's finalization, the libsolv file descriptors
are supposed to be closed.
Now, while this *may* happen immediately in dnf.Base.reset(), it may as
well not. The reason is that there is a multitude of *circular references*
between DnfSack and the packages that it contains. When dnf.Base.reset()
is entered, we have the following picture:
_sack _goal
| |
v v
+----------------+ +-------------+
| DnfSack object | <--- | Goal object |
+----------------+ +-------------+
|^ |^ |^
|| || ||
|| || ||
+--||----||----||---+
| v| v| v| | <-- _transaction
| Pkg1 Pkg2 PkgN |
| |
| Transaction oject |
+-------------------+
That is, the reference count of the DnfSack object is (1 + 1 + N), where N
is the number of packages in the transaction. Details:
(a) The first reference comes from the "_sack" field, established like
this:
main [livecd-tools/tools/livecd-creator]
install() [livecd-tools/imgcreate/creator.py]
fill_sack() [dnf/dnf/base.py]
_build_sack() [dnf/dnf/sack.py]
Sack()
sack_init() [libdnf/python/hawkey/sack-py.cpp]
dnf_sack_new() [libdnf/libdnf/dnf-sack.cpp]
(b) The second reference on the DnfSack object comes from "_goal":
main [livecd-tools/tools/livecd-creator]
install() [livecd-tools/imgcreate/creator.py]
fill_sack() [dnf/dnf/base.py]
_goal = Goal(_sack)
goal_init() [libdnf/python/hawkey/goal-py.cpp]
Py_INCREF(_sack)
(c) Then there is one reference to "_sack" *per package* in the
transaction:
main [livecd-tools/tools/livecd-creator]
install() [livecd-tools/imgcreate/creator.py]
runInstall() [livecd-tools/imgcreate/dnfinst.py]
resolve() [dnf/dnf/base.py]
_goal2transaction() [dnf/dnf/base.py]
list_installs() [libdnf/python/hawkey/goal-py.cpp]
list_generic() [libdnf/python/hawkey/goal-py.cpp]
packagelist_to_pylist() [libdnf/python/hawkey/iutil-py.cpp]
new_package() [libdnf/python/hawkey/sack-py.cpp]
Py_BuildValue()
ts.add_install()
list_installs() creates a list of packages that need to be installed
by DNF. Inside the loop in packagelist_to_pylist(), which constructs
the elements of that list, Py_BuildValue() is called with the "O"
format specifier, and that increases the reference count on "_sack".
Subsequently, in the _goal2transaction() method, we iterate over the
package list created by list_installs(), and add each package to the
transaction (ts.add_install()). After _goal2transaction() returns,
this transaction is assigned to "self._transaction" in resolve(). This
is where the last N (back-)references on the DnfSack object come from.
(d) Now, to quote the defintion of the DnfSack object
("libdnf/docs/hawkey/tutorial-py.rst"):
> *Sack* is an abstraction for a collection of packages.
That's why the DnfSack object references all the Pkg1 through PkgN
packages.
So, when the dnf.Base.reset() method completes, the picture changes like
this:
_sack _goal
| |
-- [CUT] -- -- [CUT] --
| |
v | v
+----------------+ [C] +-------------+
| DnfSack object | <-[U]- | Goal object |
+----------------+ [T] +-------------+
|^ |^ |^ |
|| || ||
|| || || |
+--||----||----||---+ [C]
| v| v| v| | <--[U]-- _transaction
| Pkg1 Pkg2 PkgN | [T]
| | |
| Transaction oject |
+-------------------+
and we are left with N reference cycles (one between each package and the
same DnfSack object).
This set of cycles can only be cleaned up by Python's generational garbage
collector <https://stackify.com/python-garbage-collection/>. The GC will
collect the DnfSack object, and consequently close the libsolv page file
descriptors via dnf_sack_finalize() -- but garbage collection will happen
*only eventually*, unpredictably.
This means that the dnf.Base.reset() method breaks its interface contract:
> Make the Base object forget about various things.
because the libsolv file descriptors can (and frequently do, in practice)
survive dnf.Base.reset().
In general, as long as the garbage collector only tracks process-private
memory blocks, there's nothing wrong; however, file descriptors are
visible to the kernel. When dnf.Base.reset() *temporarily* leaks file
descriptors as explained above, then immediately subsequent operations
that depend on those file descriptors having been closed, can fail.
An example is livecd-creator's unmounting of:
/var/tmp/imgcreate-mytcghah/install_root/var/cache/dnf
which the kernel refuses, due to libsolv's still open file descriptors
pointing into that filesystem:
> umount: /var/tmp/imgcreate-mytcghah/install_root/var/cache/dnf: target
> is busy.
> Unable to unmount /var/tmp/imgcreate-mytcghah/install_root/var/cache/dnf
> normally, using lazy unmount
(Unfortunately, the whole lazy umount idea is misguided in livecd-tools;
it's a misfeature that should be removed, as it permits the corruption of
the loop-backed filesystem. Now that the real bug is being fixed in DNF,
lazy umount is not needed as a (broken) workaround in livecd-tools. But
that's a separate patch for livecd-tools:
<https://github.com/livecd-tools/livecd-tools/pull/227>.)
Plug the fd leak by forcing a garbage collection in dnf.Base.reset()
whenever we cut the "_sack", "_goal" and "_transaction" links -- that is,
when the "sack" and "goal" parameters are True.
Note that precisely due to the unpredictable behavior of the garbage
collector, reproducing the bug may prove elusive. In order to reproduce it
deterministically, through usage with livecd-creator, disabling automatic
garbage collection with the following patch (for livecd-tools) is
sufficient:

Also note that you need to use livecd-tools at git commit 4afde9352e82 or
later, for this fix to make any difference: said commit fixes a different
(independent) bug in livecd-tools that produces identical symptoms, but
from a different origin. In other words, if you don't have commit
4afde9352e82 in your livecd-tools install, then said bug in livecd-tools
will mask this DNF fix.

Subject: [PATCH] Don't use undocumented re.template()
Python 3.11.0b1 removed it: https://github.com/python/cpython/commit/b09184bf05
It might be resurrected for a proper deprecation period, but it is going away.
See https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/92728
I've looked at the original commit that introduced this code: 6707f479bb
There is no clear indication that would suggest why re.template was used.
