No, this is not know. Can you create a small self-contained testcase? BTW, 2.3.2-95.3 is really old, current RHEL3 glibc is -95.30 and contains many bugfixes since the original RHEL3 GA glibc. Without that information we really can't move forward. You can just use "Create a New Attachment" to add the attachment, or if that doesn't work for you for whatever reason, you can just mail it to me. If there is no response soon, I'll close this bug. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0; .NET CLR 1.1.4322) Description of problem: I have a multi-threaded program that uses vfork/execve to execute commands. The program is compiled on AS 2.1 using gcc-3.0.4. When the program is run on AS 2.1 with glibc-2.2.4-26, no memory leak is reported using "top". If the program is run on AS 3.0 or ES 3.0 with glibc-2.3.2-95.3, then I see RSS keep incrementing by 4K using "top". The same program, if compiled on AS 3.0 using gcc-3.2.3, does not report any memory leak. Is this a known issue? What should I do to compile the program once on AS 2.1 to be able to resolve the memory leak issue on 3.0? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): glibc-2.3.2-95.3 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. How do I attach my compiled program? 2. 3. Additional info:
