False call for need to restart NetworkManager on RHEL8 #211

Open thomas-merz opened 6 months ago

thomas-merz commented 6 months ago

On some of my RHEL8 VMs tracer -ea says that I should restart NetworkManager:

You should restart:
  * Some applications using:
      sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager

I really can't find any reason for this (no updates at all), so is this a false call or how can I check what is causing this? Doing something like lsof | grep -i deleted | sort -r -s -n -k 7 | head -10 gives me no clue related to any NetworkManager related… 🤷🏼‍♂️

I'm using python3-tracer-0.7.8-1.el8.noarch - but also with latest release 1.1 it's the same result…

@FrostyX , do you have noticed this issue yet?

Hello @thomas-merz, sorry for the late reply, I must have missed the report.

I really can't find any reason for this (no updates at all), so is this a false call or how can I check what is causing this?

You can try to debug like this:

Print more information about NetworkManager:

$ sudo tracer -ea -s NetworkManager -vv
* NetworkManager
    Package:     NetworkManager
    Description: Network connection manager and user applications
    Type:        Daemon
    State:       NetworkManager has been started by root 11 days ago. PID - 1689

    Affected by:
        zlib-ng-compat
            /usr/lib64/libz.so
        zlib-ng-compat-devel
            /usr/lib64/libz.so

    How to restart:
        sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager

You can see that, on my computer, Tracer thinks it was affected by the zlib-ng-compat and zlib-ng-compat-devel packages (and the specific files provided by those packages). Then you can see when Tracer thinks they were updated:

$ sudo tracer --show-resource packages |grep zlib-ng-compat
2024-09-17     06:50     zlib-ng-compat
2024-09-17     06:50     zlib-ng-compat-devel

Then you can verify whether the information is correct or there is a bug somewhere.

Hi @FrostyX , I did what you suggest and I got this:

You should restart:
  * Some applications using:
      sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager
* NetworkManager
    Package:     NetworkManager
    Description: Network connection manager and user applications
    Type:        Daemon
    State:       NetworkManager has been started by root 81 days ago. PID - 1306

    Affected by:
        NetworkManager
            /usr/sbin/NetworkManager
            /usr/lib64/NetworkManager/1.40.16-15.el8_9/libnm-settings-plugin-ifcfg-rh.so

    How to restart:
        sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager

These files are much older than uptime:

$ ll /usr/lib64/NetworkManager/1.40.16-15.el8_9/libnm-settings-plugin-ifcfg-rh.so /usr/sbin/NetworkManager
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  306560 2024-02-15_12:25:34 /usr/lib64/NetworkManager/1.40.16-15.el8_9/libnm-settings-plugin-ifcfg-rh.so*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3579408 2024-02-15_12:25:34 /usr/sbin/NetworkManager*
