It's weird how easily you can reproduce the crash. I've ran all kinds of
(stress) tests and I can't reproduce this crash. I was able to reproduce the
original hang though.

Do you have: sysctl -w fs.suid_dumpable=2

Auth process sometimes stop responding after upgrade

Alas, I've set fs.suid_dumpable to 2 but the core is not dumped. So far
I've checked:

- ulimit -c unlimited, done
- /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern is set to /var/tmp/core.%p
- /var/tmp is chmod 1777
- daemon is not chrooted 
- sysctl -w fs.suid_dumpable=2
- dir /var/tmp is empty and filesystem has 2GB free


This is the logfile:

I can confirm that I can trigger the issue having one of the backends flapping
down/up.

Auth process sometimes stop responding after upgrade

If you are using systemd, create
/etc/systemd/system/dovecot.service.d/limits.conf and put
[Service]LimitCORE=infinity

and run?
systemctl daemon-reloadsystemctl restart dovecot

Alas, I've set fs.suid_dumpable to 2 but the core is not dumped. So far
I've checked:

- /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern is set to /var/tmp/core.%p

- daemon is not chrooted 
- sysctl -w fs.suid_dumpable=2
- dir /var/tmp is empty and filesystem has 2GB free
