Description James Gardiner 2006-08-14 04:12:37 UTC 
Description of problem:

Very occasionally (particularly under load) named will crash with one ofthe 
following (or similar)
errors:

RUNTIME_CHECK(((pthread_mutex_destroy(((&adb->mplock))) == 0
) ? 0 : 34) == 0) failed
OR 
14:37:45.515 RUNTIME_CHECK(((pthread_mutex_destroy(((&rbtdb->node_locks[i
].lock))) == 0) ? 0 : 34) == 0) failed

I don't believe this is related to memory constraints, since the busiest server 
never exceeds a resident footprint of 250MB, whereas these servers have 2GB RAM 
and  are exclusively for DNS.



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
bind-9.3.2-2_EL4
Kernel 2.6.9-34.0.2.ELsmp x86_64

How reproducible:
Happened about four times in eight months (so not very :< )

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run bind on an SMP x86_64 box.
2. ?

Additional info:
This is essentially the same issue as bug 173961, which was closed as it claims 
a fix has been implemeneted in back-ports from Bind 9.2.6 to 9.2.4, but we are 
running 9.3.2.

bind-9.3.2-2_EL4 isn't supported by Red Hat, it's only a test package...
Comment 3 Adam Tkac 2007-03-06 16:37:26 UTC 
This is fixed in RHEL-4.4 so if you want use bind 9.3 series or newer please use
packages from Fedora. bind 9.3.2 isn't supported in RHEL-4 => closing

Regards, Adam
