    Description

      Hey there,
      there is a reproduceable crash of MariaDB 10.3.x when running mariabackup on it. Reporting as advised in the resulting Error Log:

      This could be because you hit a bug. It is also possible that this binary
      or one of the libraries it was linked against is corrupt, improperly built,
      or misconfigured. This error can also be caused by malfunctioning hardware.
       
      To report this bug, see https://mariadb.com/kb/en/reporting-bugs
       
      We will try our best to scrape up some info that will hopefully help
      diagnose the problem, but since we have already crashed, 
      something is definitely wrong and this may fail.
       
      Server version: 10.3.21-MariaDB

      max_used_connections=0
      max_threads=1

      It is possible that mysqld could use up to 
      key_buffer_size + (read_buffer_size + sort_buffer_size)*max_threads = 5600 K  bytes of memory
      Hope that's ok; if not, decrease some variables in the equation.

            The error message says it's 'Too many open files', could you please try one of suggested here solutions https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariabackup-overview/#too-many-open-files

            I'm a bit puzzled by this as "Max Open Files" is set to 1048576 on this Server - so should be more than high enough?! But you are right - setting [mariabackup] open_files_limit=65535 did solve the Problem! Thank you!

            As marko pointed out many times, InnoDB is overly eager to abort on system errors. Ideally, InnoDB shouldn't crash on this. If it really has to abort, it would be better to go down in a more graceful fashion.

            Futureweb, could you try to diagnose this with strace? Or construct a repeatable test case?

            @Marko - problem was solved setting [mariabackup] open_files_limit=65535
            Even though Open File Limit was set to 1048576 on Centos itself it seems it was not detected correctly until open_files_limit was added to the MariaDB config.

            This is conceptually similar to MDEV-13542, but should be much easier to fix than that one.

            In fact, there is no reason why mariabackup --backup is using the InnoDB file handling wrapper functions. It could use the mysys functions.

            I do not think that fixing this (removing the use of InnoDB file API wrappers in mariabackup --backup) requires any deep InnoDB knowledge.
