Hi,

By "blocked" you mean eating 100% cpu?
Could you run a ps -lwwww <pid_of_blocked_process> ?

Yes, it was eating 100% cpu, but I can't run the ps command because I had to reboot the computer. I'll do it the next time.

FYI, I ran the strace -p <pid> command and could see no activity at all in the process.

If it's using 100% cpu it might mean the list that search_htable()
iterates on is corrupted and has become cyclic.

You could also try compiling with debugging options, e.g.:
make config mode=debug; make all
or
make config CC_EXTRA_OPTS="-O0" ; make all



Thanks, I will do that and report back if the problem happens again.

Best regards,

Santi
