ABEND WHEN ENCOUNTERING A CORRUPTED DICTIONARY WITH DB2_MEMORY_PROTECT ENABLED ON AIX | |
product: | |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2 | |
Problem description: | |
Normally, when DB2 loads a corrupted compression or expansion dictionary from disk, it returns an SQL0901N error indicating that dictionary validation failed. However, during dictionary validation with the DB2_MEMORY_PROTECT registry variable enabled on AIX with storage key support, the instance may return an SQL1224N error instead and abend with Signal #11. The stack in the trap file should look similar to the following: -------Frame------ ------Function + Offset------ 0x090000002949BB30 ossHexDumpLine + 0x110 0x090000002949C024 ossHexDumpToBuffer + 0x284 0x0900000051508F6C pdHexDump + 0x2C 0x0900000051551F20 pdFormatArg + 0x5C0 0x0900000051A217D0 pdInvokeFmtFnc + 0x30 0x0900000051095B74 formatPDType + 0x3B4 0x0900000051092B5C pdTypeFormatOrDump + 0x1ABC 0x090000005107106C pdLogInternal + 0x632C 0x090000005106AB40 pdLog + 0x320 0x090000005212C9C0 sqldFetchDictionary + 0x820 0x09000000517DC360 sqldLoadTCB + 0xB40 0x09000000517E1134 sqldFixTCB + 0x6B4 0x0900000051D5D034 sqldLockTableFixTCB + 0x374 0x09000000526E549C sqldGetTableData + 0x5DC ... | |
