This appears to be a bad side-effect of the way the deferred free is implemented when the memory protection/fence is enabled. This is turned on by enabling rtems debug.
I'd recommend filing a ticket and assigning it to Sebastian for a real fix. In the meantime, see if building RTEMS without debug enabled helps. --joel On Wed, Apr 13, 2022 at 4:30 AM Matthew J Fletcher <ami...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > Investigating the "Total number of failed allocations:" from the > wkspace cmd i see that; > > /* Statistics */ > ++stats->failed_allocs; > > Are incremented when _Heap_Allocate_aligned_with_boundary fails, however it > seems this will routinely fail due to; > > _Heap_Protection_free_all_delayed_blocks seemingly on purpose creating an > impossibly large allocation. > > uintptr_t large = 0 > - (uintptr_t) HEAP_BLOCK_HEADER_SIZE > - (uintptr_t) HEAP_ALLOC_BONUS > - (uintptr_t) 1; > > void *p = _Heap_Allocate( heap, large ); > > This makes it difficult to place a breakpoint on failed_allocs to > investigate true low memory situations with heap protection enabled. > > > regards > --- > Matthew J Fletcher > _______________________________________________ > users mailing list > users@rtems.org > http://lists.rtems.org/mailman/listinfo/users > _______________________________________________ users mailing list users@rtems.org http://lists.rtems.org/mailman/listinfo/users
