Environment

Release : 10.4.1

Component : Spectrum Core / SpectroSERVER

Cause

• Engineering suspect that the crash could be because of stack corruption which happens very rare on customer environment.

Resolution

From Engineering:

Customer provided call stack as follows:

#0  0x00007f86eac4cf8f in __strlen_sse42 () from /lib64/libc.so.6
#0  0x00007f86eac4cf8f in __strlen_sse42 () from /lib64/libc.so.6
#1  0x00007f86eb6c76c5 in std::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> >::basic_string(char const*, std::allocator<char> const&) ()
   from /lib64/libstdc++.so.6
#2  0x00007f86f0f0b6df in CsHPSETrapReceiver::DoTask() () from /opt/SPECTRUM/lib/../SS/libhpse.so.1
#3  0x00007f86f0f098b6 in CsHPSETask::threadRun(void*) () from /opt/SPECTRUM/lib/../SS/libhpse.so.1

#5  0x00007f86eac04ead in clone () from /lib64/libc.so.6

Starting on Spectrum 10.4.3.0 (20.2.7) the HPSE code was improved and would fix this problem.
