[Bug 1257186] Re: memory leakage messages (no talloc stackframe)

[Jeff Sereno]

I've had this error since installing the Beta of 14.04 Server, upgrading
it periodically to current release.

Using Thomas' suggestion, I ran "sudo pam-auth-update" and unchecked
"SMB Password Synchronization".

Did a test and found the problem disappeared. Good stuff.

I then decided to re-run "sudo pam-auth-update" and re-check "SMB
Password Synchronization", just out of curiosity.

The error has NOT reappeared since re-enabling "SMB Password
Synchronization", so I'm guessing that along with any of the upstream
Samba fixes, you've also had to re-write a config file somewhere.

So far everything seems peachy for me.

Bug description:
  This message appears a lot as of a recent update to samba (Trusty
  development branch):

  no talloc stackframe at ../source3/param/loadparm.c:4831, leaking
  memory

  From this upstream bug report, I am lead to believe the issue is in
  libpam-smbpass, but I don't really know for sure.

  I am filing this bug report mainly so that I can refer to it on the
  testing tracker as an issue, while still setting the test case to
  pass. Note that other than the error message itself, I am not aware of
  any bad side effect.
