also, no one unusual messages in logs at all (even in debug w/level 1)

Can you try with DONT_OPTIMIZE?  The current backtrace is useless ...

By: Tilghman Lesher (tilghman) 2009-06-02 11:39:37

Actually, the backtrace tells me that you'll need to follow the instructions in doc/valgrind.txt, as this is likely a memory corruption error.

By: caspy (caspy) 2009-06-02 12:07:29

russell, it is already DONT_OPTIMIZE. 100%. look for my other open issues.

tilghman, valgrind is not an option in my case. it is a loaded production, and valgrind's slowness is unaccepable for me. :(

By: Tilghman Lesher (tilghman) 2009-06-03 00:02:26

Okay, here is a debugging patch that provides us with similar information to valgrind, without the corresponding slowdown.  Patch, then run 'make menuselect', and select the option MALLOC_HOLD under Compiler Options.

with this patch 1.6.0.9 can't even start.

any ideas?

Setting back to status New.

By: Tilghman Lesher (tilghman) 2009-08-25 17:11:26

You could try running the /team/tilghman/malloc_hold branch (run 'make menuselect' and under Compiler Options, select MALLOC_HOLD before compiling).

By: caspy (caspy) 2009-08-26 08:34:06

there was no such crashes since that time.
let's close bug for now, cause we can wait years until it crash again.

if it will come back - i'll write here to reopen bug.

By: Tilghman Lesher (tilghman) 2009-08-26 10:06:51

Actually, given that each crash like this cannot be conclusively linked, other than the fact that signal 6 killed it, we'd prefer if you opened a new issue.
