Hello,
seem the leak is in snmpstats, I see lot of allocations like:
ALERT: qm_status: 37599. N address=0xf30cdf74 frag=0xf30cdf5c
size=20 used=1
ALERT: qm_status: alloc'd from snmpstats:
interprocess_buffer.c: handleContactCallbacks(143)
ALERT: qm_status: start check=f0f0f0f0, end check= c0c0c0c0,
abcdefed
ALERT: qm_status: 37600. N address=0xf30cdfb8 frag=0xf30cdfa0
size=16 used=1
ALERT: qm_status: alloc'd from snmpstats: utilities.c:
convertStrToCharString(62)
ALERT: qm_status: start check=f0f0f0f0, end check= c0c0c0c0,
abcdefed
There are some from usrloc, but very likely they are ok, because they
are persistent in shm for long time, unless snmpstats asks for some
clones of the structures from usrloc and forgets to free them (i see one
allocation is from handleContactCallbacks).
No time to look in the sources, but this is a lead to follow if you want
to investigate further.
In general, fr a memleak you have to look at allocated chunks that are
done from same place in the code and there are many of them. The decide
whether it is something that should be there for long time (like usrloc
records) or they should be freed quicker comparing with the number of
allocations.
Pkg log looks very clean, allocations only from startup time (maybe is
the main process).
Cheers,
Daniel

Indeed, DBG_QM_MALLOC is defined. So I have set memlog=1 and dumped
mem_info with:
sercmd cfg.set_now_int core mem_dump_pkg 13286
sercmd cfg.set_now_int core mem_dump_shm 13286
The dumps were done after ~1h uptime. I can not offload the traffic
and wait until transactions are freed, thus the logs are quite huge
(~15MByte)

I have no idea for what I should look for - any hints how to analyze
the mem_dump?
Thanks
Klaus

Meanwhile the server was restarted and the DB problems were fixed. As
it is a production server I can not reproduce anymore.
So, once it started it didn't recovered, continued always with that
error? How much of shm did you configure?
You can try to attach from time to time to one process (can be even
the
main one to avoid blocking a sip worker) and walk through the shm
allocated chunks, in order to see if there are some unexpected
repetitions of allocation from same place in sources.
I posted the gdb script for walking through pkg at some point, the
difference will be to start from the head of shm list (i.e., starting
with shm_block->first_frag instead of mem_block->first_frag):

Hi Daniel!
After reading this wiki page I came to the conclusion that for further
debugging I have to recompile Kamailio (using DBG_QM_MALLOC memory
manager instead of F_MALLOC). With the default memory manager it is
not possible to debug the problem. Is it correct?
in 3.1 malloc debug was left on (with the goal of catching buffer
overflows quickly after several years of development of no using this
flag in production), so unless you switched if off, you should get the
reports. you can check in the output of kamailio -V
Cheers,
Daniel
