In that case, we would leave the old (deallocated) file in the hashmap. On subsequent accesses, we could retrieve this stale entry, leading to a segfault. When journal_file_rotate fails with the file pointer set to 0, old file is certainly gone, and cannot be used anymore. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=890463 --- diff --git a/src/journal/journald-server.c b/src/journal/journald-server.c index 4f47eb1c11c..e03e413aeff 100644 --- a/src/journal/journald-server.c +++ b/src/journal/journald-server.c @@ -321,8 +321,10 @@ void server_rotate(Server *s) { if (r < 0) if (f) log_error("Failed to rotate %s: %s", f->path, strerror(-r)); - else + else { log_error("Failed to create user journal: %s", strerror(-r)); + hashmap_remove(s->user_journals, k); + } else { hashmap_replace(s->user_journals, k, f); server_fix_perms(s, f, PTR_TO_UINT32(k));
