We are running UNIX 4.0 on a VAX as a base for a field application system. We have been observing a situation which results in a corrupted message map. By counting mallocs and mfrees (via hook) we have verified that the queued message subsystem apparently will miss calls to mfree at times, thus gradually "using up" the available space. It appears (primarily through guesswork) that the failure to call mfree may result from some variety of abnormal process termination, possibly user stimulated. Does this sound familiar to anyone out there ? Any leads would be appreciated ...... thanks in advance. ----------------------------------------------------------------- gopher://quux.org/ conversion by John Goerzen of http://communication.ucsd.edu/A-News/ This Usenet Oldnews Archive article may be copied and distributed freely, provided: 1.
