Title:
  AD keytab renewal task leaks a file descriptor

Status in sssd package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in sssd source package in Xenial:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  When SSSD tries to renew the machine password, a write_to_child_fd is
  open but never closed, leaking a descriptor per request until it hits
  the limit and SSSD stops.

  [Test Case]

  1. With an AD deployed, and having the machine registered, include the
  following option in sssd.conf:

  # This option should only be used to test the machine account renewal task. The option expect 2 integers seperated by a colon (':'). The first integer defines the interval in
  # seconds how often the task is run. The second specifies the inital timeout in seconds before the task is run for the first time after startup.
  # Default: 86400:750 (24h and 15m)
  ad_machine_account_password_renewal_opts = 5:5

  2. Restart the service and monitor the use of descriptors:

  root@sssd-xenial:/home/ubuntu# while true; do ll /proc/$(pidof sssd_be)/fd | wc -l; sleep 60; done

  [Regression potential]

  * Small, the fix comes from upstream and it's been present for some time.
  * A fd could still leak, or the AD machine password renewal could stop working.
