Description Michael Hirmke 2023-08-25 11:35:44 UTC 
Starting with the latest snapshot before Aug, 15 rsync started dumping core, when trying to backup /boot/efi on my notebook:

/usr/bin/rsync --archive --one-file-system --hard-links --acls --xattrs --numeric-ids --delete-excluded --delete-during --filter=dir-merge_/.rsync_filter_backup_client --exclude-from=/var/log/backup/exclude-client.lst --verbose --stats --no-human-readable /boot/efi/ backupsrv:/var/backup/client/boot_efi/
sending incremental file list
*** buffer overflow detected ***: terminated
Aborted (core dumped)
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [Receiver]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(228) [Receiver=3.2.3]

Actual version is openSUSE Tumbleweed 20230822.
Comment 1 Michael Hirmke 2023-08-25 11:37:38 UTC 
Backing up / and /boot works without any problems.
Comment 2 Michael Hirmke 2023-08-25 11:38:11 UTC 
fsck for /boot/efi didn't show any errors to be corrected.
Comment 4 Michael Hirmke 2023-08-31 18:38:06 UTC 
The filter option is causing the problem:

--filter=dir-merge_/.rsync_filter_backup_client

The same command without this options works without dumping core.

It doesn't matter what file name is used her - even using "x" causes a dump.
Comment 5 Michael Hirmke 2023-08-31 18:39:01 UTC 
Even using -F leads to a dump.
Comment 6 Dirk Mueller 2023-09-05 12:20:37 UTC 
this was annoying the hell out of me, so I submitted Jiri's fix to factory.
