 Description   

Tested Zabbix agent 2.0.2 (revision 29143). HP-UX platforms:

  • 11.23 Itanium
  • 11.31 Itanium

Zabbix agent 1.8.15rc1 working properly on these platforms, so this looks like a regression.

On same versions (11.23, 11.31) but PA-RISC CPUs no crash is observed.

Reproducing is simple:

  • get 2.0 Zabbix
  • ./configure --enable-agent
  • make
  • ./zabbix_agentd
  • observe the log file

It should contain something like:

Please try to retest with the latest nightly build. Possibly it was fixed under different issue recently.

Is there a relation to Solaris ISSUE ZBX-5289 ?

Comment by Romeo Theriault [ 2012 Sep 28 ]

I would guess that this is probably due to the same memory alignment issue.

There in the ZBX-5289 (linked to be noticeable) is an additional comment about similar crash under HP-UX, direct link https://support.zabbix.com/browse/ZBX-5289?focusedCommentId=67082&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-67082

Hello all,
I`m Alice and I`m working for MIRACLE LINUX.
I applied and checked the patch made by lopez.jairo here ZBX-5289
zabbix-2.0.x-solaris10-SIGBUS-crash-ZBX-5289-structforcealign1.patch
and it fix the problem for HP-UX 11.31 Itanium

Just for information - another workaround is compiling Zabbix agentd as a 64-bit binary:
$ CFLAGS="+DD64" ./configure --enable-agent

Fixed in development branch svn://svn.zabbix.com/branches/dev/ZBX-5289
