Bug Description

installed: 3.3.4-13189-g.f88272d1e (28521) 138MB -

A user reported that the MAAS UI was hanging and all deployments were timing out. In the logs, I see rackd is reporting a critical error:

fd 4 is a unix socket:

root@maas:/var/snap/maas/common/log# lsof -p 82398 | grep 4u
python3 82398 root 4u unix 0x0000000000000000 0t0 241252057 type=STREAM

who is on the other end? well, it looks like the same regiond is:

root@maas:/var/snap/maas/common/log# ss -xp | grep 241252057
u_str ESTAB 0 0 * 241252058 * 241252057 users:(("python3",pid=82398,fd=5))
u_str ESTAB 0 0 * 241252057 * 241252058 users:(("python3",pid=82398,fd=4))

... and that's about all I can discern quickly. I killed the spinning regiond at this point and things seemed to recover.

Hi @dan, do you have the full logs of the region and the rack? An sos report would be ideal btw. Did you use snap or deb?

Uhm the logs are empty, could you double check?

Indeed, I tried again and sos report is reliably not including them. Perhaps the maas plugin timeout in the output below is related. I've captured the logs manually and uploaded them here:
  https://private-fileshare.canonical.com/~dannf/lp2031451/var_snap_maas_common_log-20230828.tar.gz

sos report output follows (maas plugin timeout at the end)

The version you are running 3.3.4-13189-g.f88272d1e is affected by https://bugs.launchpad.net/maas/+bug/2027735 . Given that there is only one process processing all the HTTP requests it's likely that it is using 100% CPU unfortunately.

I'd suggest to
1) upgrade to 3.3/edge which contains the fix for the bug above
2) run the infrastructure ~for some days/a week
3) upload the new logs
4) ensure that the issue is gone. If not, this needs more investigation.

wrt the `recvfrom(4, 0x55e14a3c58c0` every worker is doing it in that version of maas so it's not specific to your env/bug. I don't know by heart what's behind this, I'll try to investigate a bit anyways.

Does this make sense to you @dann?
