Runaway CPU investigation for sshd-session: unknown userspace loop at unresolved offset in libpam.so.0.85.1

sshd-session is stuck in a likely unclassified userspace loop: 21.85% of sampled CPU passed through unresolved offset, with repeated thread backtraces show 1 thread(s) around 0x00007f0dbde9a7d2 in ?? () from target:<path>.

Technical snapshot

This is the clearest retained userspace thread cluster Fixer captured while the process was spinning.

Representative thread backtrace

  • Command: sshd-session: gis [priv]
  • Why Fixer classified it this way: The process is demonstrably CPU-hot, but the current syscall and symbol sample does not point to a single dominant loop family yet.
  • Thread summary: thread backtraces show 1 thread(s) around 0x00007f0dbde9a7d2 in ?? () from target:<path>
  • Contention signals: event-loop-wakeups, gdb-stderr: gdb: warning: Couldn't determine a path for the index cache directory.
  • Repeated loop: restart_syscall
  • Top syscalls: restart_syscall x1
  • Package: openssh-server 1:10.3p1-1
  • Kernel: 6.17.10+deb14-amd64
  • Distribution: debian
