Jan 22 19:21:35 <HOSTNAMEE> kernel: SpectroSERVER[2079677]: segfault at 20 ip <HEX> sp <HEX> error 4 in libbroc1000ss.so.1[7f055dbd8000+7000]

Environment

Release: 22.2.x

Resolution

  • This crash is resolved in Spectrum 23.3.2 which is now GA.
  • If the crash is still occurring in Spectrum 23.3.4, please open a support ticket and request the Spectrum_23.03.04.D259 debug patch.

Additional Information

If you are running 22.2.9 ONLY you can obtain a patch for this crash:

  • Spectrum_22.02.09.D224

 

Workaround to prevent the crash until the patch is applied or Spectrum is upgraded:

1.  Stop SS

2.  Stop processd

3.  Move (not rename) libbroc1000ss.dll OR  libbroc1000ss.so.1 from SPECROOT\SS\modules to somewhere on the box, not within SPECROOT

4.  Start processd

5.  Start SS

Symptom:  Brocade devices return incorrect counts for swFCPortIndex and swFCPortType from the SW-MIB, causing the SpectroSERVER to crash. 
Resolution: With this fix, Spectrum adds a solution to ensure the validity of both swFCPortIndex and swFCPortType, which prevents the SpectroSERVER crash. (DE573809, 33507159, 23.3.2)
