It’s hard (if not impossible) to see which lines correspond to the error
above. :-)

Could try to reproduce the bug, and have ‘tail -f /var/log/messages’
running on the server side so you can capture just the right lines?
/var/log/debug might be interesting too.

Thanks,

I have the same problem. Log messages around failure look something
like this (extracted from above message):

Oct 4 11:51:49 localhost shepherd[1]: Service sshd-2 has been started.
Oct 4 11:51:50 localhost sshd[250]: Accepted publickey for bob from 185.70.53.164 port 1915 ssh2: RSA SHA256:/X3jyhyMizAOKOjCfXK5cLN3Pa0vmi7dbQG+fxK3d3Y
Oct 4 11:52:28 localhost sshd[252]: error: no more sessions
Oct 4 11:52:28 localhost shepherd[1]: 1 connection still in use after sshd-2 termination.
Oct 4 11:52:28 localhost shepherd[1]: Service sshd-2 has been disabled.

Then deploy crashes with 'Channel opening failure'.

Due to the number of SSH connections made by deploy and frequent
occurence of this problem, I was not able to successfully deploy through
many attempts.

I found that removing the memoizing open-machine-ssh-session* in
(gnu machine ssh) works around it and can happily deploy again.

(that is, just use 'open-machine-ssh-session' instead)

“no more sessions” comes from this:

Toggle snippet (15 lines)
int
session_open(Authctxt *authctxt, int chanid)
{
Session *s = session_new();
debug("session_open: channel %d", chanid);
if (s == NULL) {
error("no more sessions");
return 0;
}

[...]

}

Would be interesting to run sshd in verbose/debug mode and see why we
hit that; it could be because the maximum number of sessions has been
reached or something.

Ouch. Normally, thanks to memoization, ‘guix deploy’ opens only one
session per machine. (I think it works well with the 25 local build
machines behind berlin; it’s also fine for a small set of machines I
take care of at work.)

Interesting. That gives us a hint. Could you add a ‘pk’ in
‘open-machine-ssh-session*’ to see how many connections it opens?

Thanks for your feedback!

I believe the two-minute window before SIGCHLD is waiting for some
Shepherd services to time out (long story..!).

In my current tests the failure always occur at the
very end of deploy:

building /gnu/store/19yajyzw4jhnkkz9w0l9gm4az0jxihkc-install-bootloader.scm.drv...
building /gnu/store/m7ngq5gszyswm6sficinz7ghpra30dl4-remote-exp.scm.drv...

What's interesting is that all of the failed deploys fail to open
"channel 10", whereas successful deploys never reach it. All of these
are deploying the exact same configuration and commit, so the SSH
traffic should nearly identical.

I have attached the transcripts of each session (by grepping the PIDs
from /var/log/debug). Grepping for session_open yields some
inconstencies, but haven't studied them in detail yet.

Have they been rebooted since the switch to inetd-style sshd? It fails
more often than not for me.

Indeed it only opens a single connection. The problem seems to be
with multiple "channels" and "sessions" over a single connection.

Here’s a reproducer:

Toggle snippet (15 lines)
(use-modules (guix ssh)
(guix))

(define %local
(open-connection))

(define %remote
(connect-to-remote-daemon (open-ssh-session "HOST-OF-YOUR-CHOICE")))

(let loop ((i 0))
(pk 'loop i)
(send-files %local '("/gnu/store/8fpk2cja3f07xls48jfnpgrzrljpqivr-coreutils-8.32") %remote)
(loop (+ 1 i)))

It fails after 8 iterations. It looks like we’re leaking SSH channels
or something.

However, in GDB, we can see that ‘ssh_channel_close’ is indeed called
after each iteration (via ‘ptob_close’ in Guile-SSH).

Artyom, does that ring a bell?

Thanks,
Ludo’.

Hello Ludovic, Andrew and all,

thank you for reporting the bug!

The code for reproducing the bug was very helpful indeed, I just
slightly modified the it:

Toggle snippet (23 lines)
(use-modules (ssh session)
(ssh popen)
(ssh auth)
(ssh log)
(rnrs io ports))

(define session
(make-session #:host "localhost"))

(define (main args)
(session-parse-config! session)
(connect! session)
(userauth-public-key/auto! session)
(set-log-verbosity! 'functions)

(let loop ((i 0))
(format (current-error-port) "-- ~a --~%" i)
(let ((pipe (open-remote-pipe session "date" "r")))
(pk 'x (get-string-all pipe))
(close-port pipe)
(loop (+ 1 i)))))

It seems to me that the reason Guile-SSH fails at least partly lies in
changes that were introduced in OpenSSH 5.1.

I set "LogLevel" to "DEBUG3" and ran the test code. System logs have
shown the following error:

This "no more sessions" error was the key to understanding the problem.

Here's an excerpt from OpenSSH 5.1 changelog [1]:

Toggle snippet (11 lines)
Changes since OpenSSH 5.0
=========================
[...]
* Added a MaxSessions option to sshd_config(5) to allow control of the
number of multiplexed sessions supported over a single TCP connection.
This allows increasing the number of allowed sessions above the
previous default of 10, disabling connection multiplexing
(MaxSessions=1) or disallowing login/shell/subsystem sessions
entirely (MaxSessions=0).

When I set "MaxSessions" in "/etc/ssh/sshd_config" to 100 and restarted
the sshd daemon, the test code fails on the 100th iteration.

I'm not sure if I should deal with this "MaxSessions" error in Guile-SSH
code; and if so, what the right thing to do on the Guile-SSH side?

I'd love to hear your opinions on that.

Thanks,

Hello,

I figured out how to fix Guile-SSH channel "leak", so to say, that lead
to the OpenSSH "no more sessions" problem.

Please run your tests with this branch and let me know if it works for
you (including all the edge cases):

Thanks,

It works! Specifically, I ran:

guix shell guile guile-ssh \
--with-branch=guile-ssh=wip-fix-channel-leak -- \
guile ssh-channels.scm

and the script (same one as before) ran several hundreds of iterations
just fine.

I had looked at ‘ptob_close’ and related code but didn’t see this issue;
good catch!

If you plan to push a new release, we’ll just upgrade in Guix; otherwise
we can apply the patch locally.

Thank you!

Ludo’.

Can confirm the same, works on my machine :) Thank you very much.

Hi,

The bug should be fixed with the upgrade to Guile-SSH 0.16.3 in commit
e6f557dd23fbb298afa92dba3133ed985e560699.

Thanks Artyom for the prompt fix & release!
