libudev has a _massive_ static memory footprint (Kay doesn't believe in memory allocation). So when using libudev you might end up having a really large memory footprint due to all the on-stack allocations in there. Be especially careful when attempting to use pthreads; debugging stack overflow in pthreads is no fun whatsoever.
That's exactly the reason why I never allocate large data structures on the stack in applications I write myself and why I use dynamic memory allocation for large data structures. To make sure that such large stack allocations get detected I set the stack size to a low value:
pthread_attr_t attr; pthread_attr_init(&attr); pthread_attr_setstacksize(&attr, PTHREAD_STACK_MIN); pthread_create(..., &attr, ..., ...); Bart. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "open-iscsi" group.
