Forget it. MemTest86_v5 is not GPL, the last one was 4.3.6.

I have been working on this problem for a while. Disabling the inline- functions called-once optimization fixes the problem. I also ran the static analyzer Cppcheck, and solved an array out-of- bounds bug, and an incorrect pointer bug. -Dave Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/memtest86+/+bug/1234612/comments/18 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2014-10-20T05:17:18+00:00 David wrote: PS.

I have already used: - for(i = 0; i < sizeof(possible_nhm_bus); i++) { + for(i = 0; i < sizeof(possible_nhm_bus) / sizeof(possible_nhm_bus[0]); i++) { I will keep it, because it is more generic solution than the hardcoded number of iterations. Could you provide more information about the -fno-inline-functions- called-once. What it fixes and why?

I've never seen this technique before, and I'll have to look into it. About the -fno-inline-functions-called-once optimization: I do not understand what it fixes or why. I will do more research into the problem and report back what I discover. This patch is part of my larger effort of improve Memtest86+'s SMP mode. It always locks up hard on my Intel Core 2 Quad machine when in SMP. Once I find the deadlock issue my goal will be to improveimprove SMP performance.

I will also keep this as is, it may resolve other hidden problems.
