[zeromq-dev] Problem with 0mq

[Mahathi_Prabhala]

Hi all

We are facing quite a curious issue with ZMQ. A simple server is used to queue files to a client which process the files and queues the results back to the server. This setup works fine without our application code doing the actual processing, but once the application code is incorporated, there is an error in our device driver (part of
our application). What's mystifying is that our application works fine when ZMQ is not used and files are instead read from the disk.

When we run the program with the ZMQ, the system hangs. The debug messages report an error that is, "Unable to handle kernel paging request".
When we commented the memcpy() function call in the driver code it worked fine though we don't understand why a memcpy() function leads to a system crash.
The file that the server sends in is of 2KB.

We are currently working on the Debian distribution of Linux, the kernel version used being 2.6.39.The system configuration is as follows;

Intel Xeon E31245 processor @ 3.3GHz
4 GB RAM and a 250GB 6.0Gb/s SATA Hard Drive.

Can you please help us in finding out where the problem is.

Is it the ZMQ that is being used in our application?
Or is it the application that seems to be causing the problem( though we are clueless as to why it's causing a problem now when it worked fine when the files were read from the disk)?

I have attached the server and client programs for your reference.

Thank you.
