When I am trying to run my application on RHEL 6 (Kernel 2.6*), I am getting the following error.*** glib detected *** ./corenms:malloc(); memory corruption : 0x086691d0 ***
I am new to C and linux. My code below does arbitary writes but I cant figure out where or how it does it.
I am calling the insertNode() function with seq = 'MISSISSPPI$' and alphabets = 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ$'
Code:
Weird behaviour I should mention is that when I check for NULL pointer in node->child[index], the unassigned values are not null anymore, they point to arbitary memory.
This is my first post in these forums. I'm still quite new to Linux (using Mint 9) so please bear with my not-very-articulate question(s)When I boot up and open up a tty terminal I get a message saying "Memory corruption detected in low memory." I've done an extensive google search about the issue and it seems not uncommon. I ran a memtest with no errors returned, so I'm sure that there's nothing really wrong with the memory; apparently it's a bug in the kernel that's causing this.
I'm afraid I have a huge issue with my newest Fedora 14 server. I recently migrated to Fedora 14 from Centos 5, which was very stable, but had ancient packages and libraries and my users were revolting...The machine is a HP ProLiant 360 G7, with 12G RAM and 6 SAS drives in RAID 5.After I migrated to Fedora 14, I noticed that for some reason, during the course of about 24 hours, all usable RAM "disappears" and applications are forced down to swap space. Needless to say I didn't have this issue on CentOS.
The server does heavy IO as per it's function (it's a heavily loaded file processing server and user simulation computing station among other things, which causes lots of random IO), so I thought it may be the cache, but then I realized it cannot be - because obviously Linux will use onyl "unused" RAM for caching and frees it up as soon as an app need it. Then, I thought to check the "slabtop" to see what's going on in Kernel memory. Unfortunately I don't have the screenshot from the time just before the latest crash, but there's a certain value displayed by slabtop, which slowly, byte-from-byte creeps over all available RAM, eventually forcing applications down to the swap. This is malloc-64, and as you can see from the bellow copy-paste, it's building up again even now...
Code: Active / Total Objects (% used) : 9118075 / 9153600 (99.6%) Active / Total Slabs (% used) : 152157 / 152157 (100.0%)
I am developing a code where I need to store the planes of an object in a tree & also i need to store it in a list for further processing ... when I try to allocate using malloc the memory allocation when i checked this in internet , I came to know that it may because the memory that I am trying to allocate may be more than the size_t variable.
clarrify the below points:1) Where does the Kmalloc/Vmalloc/get_free_pages/malloc Allocates memory in which space is it Kernel/User?2) Coming to Hardware Point of View is where Kernel/User Space Memory Allocates is it in RAM or any.?3) In Device Drivers, how Open Call get to know whether the hardware is connected/not?
I wrote a multithread program(approx 1000 thread have to run) and each thread has to parse a file(for each thread there is one file, ex:thread1 has to parse file1 and thread2 has to parse file2 like this....). I wrote "parse" program as follows. It is working well, if i create 50 threads. but if i run more than 200 thraeds Im getting doublefree corruption as follows:
And some time I am getting parsing problem and error af follows:
Code:
powersetting.6607:1: parser error : Start tag expected, '<' not found (where powersetting.6607 is file name, when i check this file it is started with '<').
I have a desktop PC which initially had the Intel D946gzis mobo, its chipset as video controller, some RAM and so. There I installed Debian without a problem alongside WindowsXP.
I've bought an ASUS HD 4670 video card, installed it on the PC and now the installed Debian does not work, while the Ubuntu live CD refuses to run no matter if I set acpi, apic on or off... it throws me some low memory corruption at position just like shown here. With normal configuration, Debian throws kernel panic (keyboard lights blinking). Anyone have faced this before? Ideas? Thanks!! (meanwhile, debian hides in a virtualbox :'( )
Edited: Tried Ubuntu 9.10 x64 (due to the fact i've a core2duo at 2GHz) and it throws a kernel-panic to me (flashing caps and num LEDs). On screen, can be read different lines with things like:
(gimp:4216): GLib-WARNING **: /build/buildd/glib2.0-2.28.6/./glib/goption.c:2132: ignoring no-arg, optional-arg or filename flags ( on option of type 0 segmentation fault
gimp stopped working on kubuntu after installing updates, any fix?
Nothing to do. Used zypper dup to upgrade from 11.3. Still have boot problems (will open another thread), but had major problems upgrading timezone. File downloads would reach some percentage of completion, then B/s would slowly reduce, to zero. Upgrade would halt until manually aborted. Solution was to manually download 5 timezone files and install them in a directory repository. File download did not specify just the timezone file, but also a part of the directory. Could this be part of the problem? example: ./rpm/i586/timezone-2011d-0.2.1.i586.rpm instead of just the file name.System is a Dell 3000 (Pentium 4, 512MB memory).
I have prob with running Metaspolit tool in BackTrack When i used expolit aurora (windows/shell/bind_tcp) it started a server for me running in my ip addrerss on port 8080
when the target pc trying to access that web an error appear saying : "Sending internet explorer "Aurora" Memory Corruption to client 10.64.35.52" you can check out the attached file hint to solve this prob so the session can start?
I've just installed ubuntu 10.04 on a Lenovo Thinkpad Edge. Problem is that it generally doesn't detect the USB memories that I've been trying to use. On two occasions it did in fact detect the flash memory, but it couldn't open/read it for some reason (USB memories works on other computers), but all the other times the USB flash memory didn't even show up in Nautilus.
I am no techie so I'm not sure how to check what the problem is here. I've been googling it but either it refers to some specific stuff that doesn't cover my case or it simply is too technical for average users like me to understand.
I am getting a weird compilation error with malloc.h/usr/include/malloc.h:86: error: expected ')' before '__size'This is what the code looks like inside malloc.hextern void *(*__morecore) __MALLOC_PMT ((ptrdiff_t __size))When I did some googling, it was stating that ptrdiff_t was not defined; but, it is.#define __malloc_ptrdiff_t ptrdiff_t
I have been trying to fix this problem for 3 days, any ideas before I jump through the window (not the bill gates one)?I am using ubuntu 9.10 and running a ./configure.
Is there a way to hook calls to new/malloc, delete/free in C++? I tried the following methods: LD_PRELOAD -> fails for malloc, because dlsym seems to depend on malloc -Wl,--wrap,malloc -> doesn't work for 'new' gcc hooks -> doesn't work always, e.g. for uclibc there are no hooks Are there any other methods I could try?
I tried to install OpenSuse 11.3 on my brand new pc, which already had Windows 7 proffessional in it, and I went step by step through the installation without changing anything. It didn't work. I tried for a second time and this error message kept popping up: "Creating device modes with udev 2.0436224] [drm: i915_diver_load]*ERROR*Detected broken BIOS with 262140/2644kb of video memory stolen. 2.0436224] [drm: i915_diver_load]*ERROR*Disabling GEM(try reducing stolen memory or updating the BIOS to fix)"
And then a lot of letters and numbers wich make no sense to me. Now the only way I can initiate OpenSuse is with the OSuse boot dvd and on failsafe mode.
I am using malloc and frees a lot in my program. It shows its allocated but when i remove it doesnt show as the memory is removed(I am using the top command to view VIRT memory usage). If this continously grows what would happen to my program (Will it go out of memory?)
I am looking to buy some memory for my netbook. Currently I have 1 GB of DDR3 memory. However, the specification says that 2 GB of memory is the max. However, when I do the following it says that 4GB is the max:
I have a computer with 16GB of ram. At the moment, top shows all the RAM is taken, (NOT by cache), but the RAM used by the various processes is very far from 16GB.I have seen this problem several times, but I don't understand what is happening.My only remedy so far has been to reboot the machine.
