Re: [reSIProcate] DUM process loop crashes on TCP connection close initiated by peer

[Byron Campen <bcampen@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

To the best of my knowledge, this is not a known problem. What platform are you running on?

Best regards,

Byron Campen

Done more debugging.

 

 It looks to me that when the connection close is initiated by the peer, it is processed inside stack->process(fdset). Socket reading returns (-1), then the connection is correctly closed on this side. Then we enter the DUM process loop "while(dumUas->process())":

DialogUsageManager::process()
{
   if (mFifo.messageAvailable())
   {
      internalProcess(std::auto_ptr<Message>(mFifo.getNext()));
   }
   return mFifo.messageAvailable();
}

 

When the connection is closed, there should be no more message to be processed by DUM.

 

However, under debugger, mFifo.messageAvailable() still returns "true", and mFifo.getNext() returns _likely_ an invalid pointer to message, which leads to crash when ~auto_ptr() is called.

 

Is this a known problem?

 

Kind regards,

Shaofeng

Hi Byron,

 

Under gdb, the segmentation fault is due to ~auto_ptr(), and that stack trace shows that the crash occurs just on the DUM process loop line "while(dumUas->process())".

 

There is only one auto_ptr inside DialogUsageManager::process().

 

DialogUsageManager::process()
{
   if (mFifo.messageAvailable())
   {
      internalProcess(std::auto_ptr<Message>(mFifo.getNext()));
   }
   return mFifo.messageAvailable();
}

 

My guess is that this is the auto_ptr that causes the crash when it leaves its scope and ~auto_ptr() gets called.

Kind regards,

Shaofeng

    You're going to have to be more specific; where is the error 
occurring? There are lots of places where auto_ptr is used in the 
code. It may be that the problem has been fixed in the latest release.
