[hobbit] Hobbid_channel crashing on me

[Sean R. Clark]

Following up on my own thread 


Using sunpro DBX

Reading hobbitd_channel

  [6] main(argc = 5, argv = 0x8046b04), line 239 in "hobbitd_channel.c"



It's crashing with an "Out of memory" abort.

What can cause the hobbitd channel to reach this condition? Am I sending it
too much information?

The hobbitd_channel for rrd is crashing on me every 2 days or so - and ~ 3
hours after it crashes, the main hobbitdboard locks up and reports only
"BOARDBUSY"

I can't see why it's crashing, I do have a core file:


>pstack core
core 'core' of 8975:    hobbitd_channel --channel=status
--log=/sw/bbserver/bbvar/acks/rrd-sta
 fef70717 _lwp_kill (1, 6) + 7
 fef1ced3 raise    (6) + 1f
 fef00969 abort    (8052c4d, 2, 19, 8046ab4, 1, febdd980) + cd
 0804b45d xstrdup  (fec00000, 8046ab4, 1, fef6fce7, 8046d54, 8046ac0) + 31

Any help on what to do next would be appreciated - I am running hobbit 4.2
with the 'all-in-one' patch applied on x86 solaris 10
