Public bug reported:
[Impact]
When SSSD tries to renew the machine password, a write_to_child_fd is
open but never closed, leaking a descriptor per request until it hits
the limit and SSSD stops.
[Test Case]
1. With an AD deployed, and having the machine registered, include the
following option in sssd.conf:
# This option should only be used to test the machine account renewal task. The
option expect 2 integers seperated by a colon (':'). The first integer defines
the interval in
# seconds how often the task is run. The second specifies the inital timeout in
seconds before the task is run for the first time after startup.
# Default: 86400:750 (24h and 15m)
ad_machine_account_password_renewal_opts = 5:5
2. Restart the service and monitor the use of descriptors:
root@sssd-xenial:/home/ubuntu# while true; do ll /proc/$(pidof sssd_be)/fd | wc
-l; sleep 60; done
