DB2 - Problem description

Problem IC81831 Status: Closed

DB2 PAGE CLEANERS MAY RECEIVE SIG 11 WHEN 'DB2_USE_ALTERNATE_PAG
E_CLEANING=ON' AND 'SET WRITE SUSPEND/RESUME' IS USED

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2
Problem description:
While the cleaner was handling the pages list, a 'set write 
suspend' came in and prevented pages to be written. 
This sent the cleaner into sleep. When it resumes after a 'set 
write resume' has been issued, it assumes the current list can 
only be a dirty list. 
Such that the page cleaner will trap with invalid pointer 
access. 
 
The trap file would show a stack trace similar to the one below 
 
.sqlbClnrCheckAndPause.fdpr.clone.1805__FP12SQLB_CLNR_CBPb + 
0x2B8 
sqlbClnrEntryPoint__FP12sqbPgClnrEdu + 0xD28 
sqlbClnrEntryPoint__FP12sqbPgClnrEdu + 0x24 
RunEDU__12sqbPgClnrEduFv + 0x34 
__9sqzEDUObjFv + 0x1F0 
sqloEDUEntry + 0x260 
 
It might vary because of the way the compiler generated the 
code. The real stack, however, should be the following (only 
showing the top part): 
 
sqlbClnrCheckAndPause() 
sqlbClnrFindWork() 
sqlbClnrEntryPoint() 
sqbPgClnrEdu::RunEDU()
