Thanks Daniel,
looks like that is indeed the case. We the hash table key is the
call-id, but we're not calling $sht(foo=>$ci) but instead passing in
the call-id as a string.
Ich have now written a test script with those two functions:
function handle_packet_bad()
callId = sr.pv.get("$ci")
if sr.pv.get("$sht(interceptedSessions=>"..callId..")") ~= nil
then
sr.dbg("Lua found matching packet")
end
end
function handle_packet_good()
callId = sr.pv.get("$ci")
sr.pv.sets("$var(htableKey)", callId)
if sr.pv.get("$sht(interceptedSessions=>$var(htableKey))") ~= nil then
sr.dbg("Lua found matching packet")
end
end
Then in my Kamailio config, I call one or the other function depending
on whether the PID is odd or even.
if ($pp & 1) {
if(!lua_run("handle_packet_bad")) {
xlog("L_ERR", "SCRIPT: failed to execute lua
function!\n");
}
} else {
if(!lua_run("handle_packet_good")) {
xlog("L_ERR", "SCRIPT: failed to execute lua
function!\n");
}
}
Now when I track the "real_mem" used by the UDP listeners, I see the
difference. While the odd PIDs use more and more memory, the even ones
stay about at the same level.
I wouldn't have found that by myself. Thanks again.
Best Regards,
Sebastian

Hello,
my guess is that you define many cfg variables from lua, which take from
private memory (their definition).
So $sht(x=>abc) is defined when used first time and kept in memory. If
you use also $sht(x=>efg), this is another defined variable.
This happens when you do KSR.pv.get("$sht(x=>abc)") or
KSR.pv.get("$sht(x=>efg)")
To avoid defining a lot of variables, you can do:
KSR.pv.sets("$var(n)", "abc");
KSR.pv.get("$sht(x=>$var(n)");
KSR.pv.sets("$var(n)", "efg");
KSR.pv.get("$sht(x=>$var(n)");
The practically you define only one cfg variable,
KSR.pv.get("$sht(x=>$var(n)")
The issue is known, there were other reporting it here on the mailing
list. It's in my to-do before 5.1 to fix it in a way or another, by
either setting a limit of defined variables and then throw error
(easier), or track when a variable is used and start deleting the
definition for older ones when the limit is exceeded.
Cheers,
Daniel

Hi Daniel,
thanks for the quick response. See my other mail with more details.
I don't use cfg variable from the lua script, I only access $shv(...)
and $vn(...) or $var(...) and $sht(...) from it. And of course $tU,
$hdr(...) and other builtin variables. Some of the variables I'm
accessing might not be there always, though ($au for example).
Anything I can help with? I only need about half an hour to reproduce it.
Best Regards,
Sebastian

Hello,
do you use kamailio.cfg variables in the lua script? If yes, can you
show how you do it?
If you have troubles with pkg dump, it should be printed when you
stop/restart. It would be good to do the pkg summary, it is easier to
see the used chunks as a report. There are global parameters to
configure it.
Cheers,
Daniel
