We're using a third party shared library for communication with our smartcards, 
using RHEL 8.3. SSSD uses p11 to communicate with the cards, this works fine.


But, when I update the third party lib file to a new version, I can no longer 
unlock my Gnome session with the smart card. Debug logs shows the following in 
p11_child.log:


(2021-02-22  7:55:07): [p11_child[3059726]] [main] (0x0010): --module_name, 
--token_name and --key_id must be given for authentication
(2021-02-22  7:55:07): [p11_child[3059726]] [main] (0x0020): p11_child failed!



And in sssd_pam.log:

(2021-02-22  7:55:07): [pam] [parse_p11_child_response] (0x1000): No 
certificate found.
(2021-02-22  7:55:07): [pam] [pam_forwarder_cert_cb] (0x0020): No certificate 
returned, authentication failed.

I can use the smartcard for other actions, like sudo and logging in to a new 
session, but not to unlock the existing session. It's like some session 
specific data no longer is available or no longer matches when the lib file has 
changed on disk.


This makes it really hard to update the lib file on our users computers, seeing 
as doing so will effectively lock them out of their sessions. Does anyone 
recognize this behaviour and is there anything I can do to avoid it?
