planner_server dies when clearing costmap: Segmentation fault in nav2_voxel_grid #2781

Bug report

Required Info:

  • Operating System:
    • Ubuntu 20.04
  • ROS2 Version:
    • galactic from apt
  • Version or commit hash:
    • a1e8ea3 (branch galactic from this repo, but same for ros-galactic-navigation2 from apt)
  • DDS implementation:
    • ?

Steps to reproduce issue

I use the package turtlebot3_navigation2 to let a simulated turtlebot navigate in an environment with many dynamic obstacles (simulated humans). In long simulations, where after reaching the goal a new goal is set again and again, this error happens sometimes (about once in 10 tries). Subjectively, the error usually happens when many dynamic obstacles come close to the robot.

Expected behavior

The planner_server should not crash when clearing the costmap.

Actual behavior

In various situations (but probably not all situations) where a costmap (both local and global) is to be cleared, planner_server crashes.
4s later all nodes bonded to it are stopped. The robot does not move anymore.

Additional information

Here are the outputs from all nodes except planner_server:

It seems that the raytraceLine function triggers a segmentation fault in rare cases.
