Hi all, I'm using cvs head on debian woody(historical reasons). I'm using rlm_perl module with perl 5.6: `dpkg -l '*perl*'` ... ii libperl-dev 5.6.1-8.9 ii libperl5.6 5.6.1-8.9 ii libsnmp-perl 4.2.3-2 ... This version of perl is without ithreads and does not support multiplicity. I experienced following behaviour when sending HUP to radius process: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x404525dd in Perl_gv_fetchpv () from /usr/lib/libperl.so.5.6 (gdb) bt #0 0x404525dd in Perl_gv_fetchpv () from /usr/lib/libperl.so.5.6 #1 0x4044d347 in perl_get_cv () from /usr/lib/libperl.so.5.6 #2 0x4044d4b6 in perl_call_pv () from /usr/lib/libperl.so.5.6 #3 0x4042a030 in _init () from /usr/lib/freeradius/rlm_perl-2.0.0-pre0.so #4 0x08055e12 in free_mainconfig () #5 0x0804eec5 in cf_pair_free () #6 0x0804f1fc in cf_section_free () #7 0x0804f21b in cf_section_free () #8 0x0804f21b in cf_section_free () #9 0x080558c4 in read_mainconfig () #10 0x08058ee2 in main () #11 0x4024714f in __libc_start_main () from /lib/libc.so.6 Problem was localized to detach section of perl module and here is a dummy patch(do not call custom detach function as I do not need it...)
