Thought I had found a good point about pthread_cancel. See the last post here : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gcc-3.3/+bug/40285 Juergen Perlinger (juergen-perlinger) <https://launchpad.net/%7Ejuergen-perlinger> wrote on 2013-10-25: #30 <https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gcc-3.3/+bug/40285/comments/30> I finally tracked it down, I think. The pthread code tries to load libgcc_s on pthread_exit(), and this dos not work when the effective user was changed -- many daemons switch from root to a restricted user, and that's one way to end up in this problem. If the library is loaded globally for the process before the user is changed, everything works. This is a problem of the 'pthread_exit()' implementation (delayed/on-demand load of libgcc_s) and/or the 'mmap()' implementation in the kernel. I've tried putting /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcc_s.so.1 into /etc/ld.so.preload, I've changed the exec line in /etc/init/dovecot to exec LD_PRELOAD=/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcc_s.so.1 /usr/sbin/dovecot -F -c /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf and the sa-learn line in /usr/local/bin/sa-learn-pipe.sh to LD_PRELOAD=/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcc_s.so.1 /usr/bin/sa-learn -D --progress $* /tmp/sendmail-msg-$$.txt >> /tmp/sa-learn-pipe.$$.log 2>&1
Does sa-learn change UID? Maybe you can make sa-learn set-uid or pass a specific -u /-x .
