Hi, Mathieu and Jonathan
I am sorry for that. I should provide you with ust version in the first place.In fact ,we choose lttng to provide tracing feature long time ago so that we stick to a very old version i.e. 2.7. In fact, there was some chances that we reported some issues with version provided ,but got the similar answers just to upgrade to the lastest software(I know you have not maintained the old version any longer). It is very diffcult for us to upgrade the ust to a new version since it is linked into so many production apps. I think the 2.7 ust is roubust engough and only need some littile fixes,just like this time ,I need a single patch to ustcomm_recv_fds_unix_sock(). Again I am very very sorry for you take so much time to think our cases. Lttng is the best trace toolsets in the world.
Thanks
zhenyu.ren

Hi Zhenyu,
This is exactly why Jonathan and I asked you to fill a bug report on the bug tracker
and follow the bug reporting guidelines (https://lttng.org/community/#bug-reporting-guidelines).
This saves time for everyone.
Thanks,
Mathieu

Oh, I see. I have an old ust(2.7). So I have no FD_CLOEXEC in ustcomm_recv_fds_unix_sock().
Thanks very much!!!

It is holding "all" of shm files' reference , neither a single one nor some few ones.
In fact, yesterday, I tried to fix it as the following and it seems work.

As it shows, wait_fd[1] has been set FD_CLOEXEC by fcntl() but not shm_fd. Why your patch do with wait_fd but not shm_fd? As far as I know, wait_fd is just a pipe and it seems not related to shm resource.

When this happpens, is the process holding a single (or very few) shm file references, or references to many
shm files ?
I wonder if you end up in a scenario where an application very frequently performs exec(), and therefore
sometimes the exec() will happen in the window between the unix socket file descriptor reception and
call to fcntl FD_CLOEXEC.
Thanks,
Mathieu

Thanks a lot for reply. I do not reply it in bug tracker since I have not gotten a reliable way to reproduce the leak case.

Those file descriptors are created when received by ustcomm_recv_fds_unix_sock, and
immediately after creation they are set as FD_CLOEXEC.
We should continue this discussion in the bug tracker as suggested by Jonathan.
It would greatly help if you can provide a small reproducer.
Thanks,
Mathieu
