Hi Ovidiu,

are you sure this is related to the avpops module? I took a look in the memory log, and i noticed a lot of memory related to the database operations there. And the config in the original report don't use avp DB operations. Do you use db_load, or _query?

Perhaps this is related to some memory leaks i recently fixed in the registrar and usrloc? I thought that its only related to db_mode DB_ONLY, but perhaps its also affects other modes.

Cheers,

Henning

Hello Henning,

All the details are in the mailing list thread.
In my config, I wasn't using the registrar and usrloc modules, so definitely the mem leak that I observed did not came from those two modules.

memory dump log avpops

Hi Ovidiu,

i was able to reproduce a out of PKG_MEM condition related to the avpops module. I've added a test (41.sh) for this, it fails after about 200 load/ store cycles. I did not know the exact reason atm, perhaps this is related to some memory fragementation, as the memory debug did not show that much. Memory dump log attached.
