HP OpenVMS Systemsask the wizard |

The Question is:
I am running OpenVMS 6.2 on a multiprocessor Dec machine. I written a
Tcp-Server that accepts job requests from a remote client, and passes these
requests to a "database process" running on the same system as the Tcp Server.
I am new to all of the concept
s required: Threads, C code, ASTs, MBX, etc. My code works, but occassionally
crashes with a "%DECthreads bugcheck (version V2.12-296), terminating execution.
% Running on OpenVMS VAX [OpenVMS V6.2; VAX 7000-640, 4 cpus, 512Mb]
% Reason: set_kernel: deadlock at _$22$DIA1:[CMARTL.SRC]CMA_MUTEX.C;1:2027"
My code has a primary thread to accept new connections. It then spawns a child
thread per new connection. Each child thread serves a remote client. Each
child thread gets TCP job requets from the client, then delivers the job my
"database process" MBX. Th
e "database process" returns job results to the child thread's MBX then, in
turn, these results are sent via TCP to the client. The TCP messages from the
client and the "job result" MBX messages from the "database server" are both
trigger via ASTs.
If the Wizard can look through my code to offer suggestions, I would appreciate
it. I am new to this, and have peiced this together from many different
resources.
My code follows. I hope it is not inappropriate to post an entire program
here....

The Answer is : Please apply the available manadatory ECO kits for OpenVMS, for TCP/IP Services, and any kits relevent to DECthreads and C. General SMP coding information is available in topic (1661), and in topics referenced there. Please then contact the customer support center resolving this particular apparent-deadlock matter -- this question is beyond what the OpenVMS Wizard can reasonably hope to discuss or debug here.
