Your trace shows that there are two worker processes dealing with the
segfault-triggering dialog, process ID 32155 and 32158. I cannot see
from your trace what module caused the latter process to execute
unref_dlg() in dlg_hash.c, however.

What I can tell though is that the crash happens because too much dialog
reference counter decrementing takes place. Although I have no clue why,
I believe the implementation of unref_dlg_unsafe() (a macro) could be
somewhat more robust by not unlinking and destroying a dialog when the
counter drops below zero. That is, instead of running the following block

if ((_dlg)->ref<=0) { \
        unlink_unsafe_dlg( _d_entry, _dlg);\
        LM_DBG("ref <=0 for dialog %p\n",_dlg);\
        destroy_dlg(_dlg);\
}\

for _dlg->ref <= 0, I see no reason to change the compare operator to ==.

Of course, that just cures the symptoms. A coredump would be really
helpful in identifying the root of the crash problem but I don't know
why it wasn't generated in your case. Your configuration looks good to me.


Cheers,
