Description:
------------
After around 12 hours APC starts segfaulting every httpd process.

[Mon Feb 12 02:21:26 2007] [notice] child pid 21131 exit signal Segmentation fault (11), possible coredump in /tmp
[Mon Feb 12 02:21:27 2007] [notice] child pid 21095 exit signal Segmentation fault (11), possible coredump in /tmp
[Mon Feb 12 02:21:27 2007] [notice] child pid 21100 exit signal Segmentation fault (11), possible coredump in /tmp
[Mon Feb 12 02:21:27 2007] [notice] child pid 21127 exit signal Segmentation fault (11), possible coredump in /tmp
[Mon Feb 12 02:21:27 2007] [notice] child pid 21129 exit signal Segmentation fault (11), possible coredump in /tmp

When I run gdb on the core dump I get

(gdb) bt
#0  sma_allocate (shmaddr=0xb7d91000, size=Variable "size" is not available.
) at /tmp/pear/cache/APC-3.0.12p2/apc_sma.c:157

#5  0x01019679 in php_execute_script () from /etc/httpd/modules/libphp4.so
#6  0x00000000 in ?? ()


Any ideas what could be going on here?

Are you running out of memory, how large is your memory segment (apc.shm_size ini option), and what does the statistics look like in the apc.php console (this comes with apc, is the memory usage significant)?

3.0.13 is just getting out of the door - so please try running the CVS head of APC, that has code to error out when a memory corruption is likely - rather than crash out like this after corruption.

I might be able to rush out a fix before the release happens.

This bug looks similar to a few others and we believe this is now fixed in APC-3.0.16
