Version of OpenTTD

1.12+

Steps to reproduce

Hello. The crashes started after update 1.12. It all happens by accident, I did not find details about the crash, so I'm writing here.

4 servers work 24 on 7, and somewhere 1 time in 2 days one of servers crash.

Until 1.12 there was no crash.

Crash reason:
Signal: Aborted (6)
Message: NOT_REACHED triggered at line 186 of /__w/OpenTTD/OpenTTD/src/network/core/address.cpp

Did the game produce a crash.dmp by any chance? Or did your system generate a coredump out of it? That would be incredibly useful. Tnx :)

I only found these 2 files. Where i can find coredump?

If I can blindly guestimate, this is because you run an IPv4-only stack (so no IPv6 support) .. and when a TURN connection is established with an IPv6 on the client-side, that IPv6 is given to the server, which tries to Resolve() it. This fails because there is no IPv6.
That on its own isn't a real problem, except that I am guessing you have a banlist active. Now when it tries to check if the IPv6 is inside any of the ban-ranges, it fails, as it doesn't understand whether it was an IPv4 or IPv6.

That is a situation we never tested for, so that makes the question:

  • Am I right in the assumption your system doesn't have IPv6 (like, at all, not even a link-local address?)? (ip a will tell you)
  • And am I right in the assumption you have a banlist active?

If both hold true, that would explain this crash report :)

I only found these 2 files. Where i can find coredump?

If you can't find it, it isn't there. It is okay, it would just make it easier to validate the above assumptions :D

You are 100% right. I have only IPv4 and active banlist.

Tnx for the confirmation :) We will see what we can do to fix this!

Sadly, I do not think there is a workaround for now .. will get back to you if I can come up with one.

For the developers: some more detail on what is happening:

NetworkAddress address = NetworkAddress(hostname, NETWORK_DEFAULT_PORT);

resolved(false)

if (!this->IsResolved()) this->GetAddress();

this->Resolve(this->address.ss_family, SOCK_STREAM, AI_ADDRCONFIG, nullptr, ResolveLoopProc);

int e = getaddrinfo(this->hostname.empty() ? nullptr : this->hostname.c_str(), port_name, &hints, &ai);

And if you cannot resolve IPv6 address, that fails, and ss_family is never set. IsInNetmask in turns fails.

Additionally, you cannot load an IPv6 in the banlist either, as that will fail for similar reasons.
