Hi all, while makeing some tests I recognized, that sometime select() and close() crashes, if the number of used file descriptors is > 60.
With a value >93 select() crashes. With a value between 61 and 81 a close() call crashes instead of select(), but it seems that this is caused by the previous select() call. Appended is a little test app for error reproducing. $ ./test 60 dup select close close2 $ ./test 61 dup select close Segmentation fault (core dumped) $ ./test 62 dup select close Segmentation fault (core dumped) ... $ ./test 81 dup select close Segmentation fault (core dumped) $ ./test 82 dup select close close2 ..... $ ./test 92 dup select close close2 $ ./test 93 dup select Segmentation fault (core dumped) The select() crashes in the cygwin1.dll in the method "select_stuff::~select_stuff" like shown in the strace snippet below 4604 7210385 [main] lat_select 2308 set_bits: ready 1 4401 7214786 [main] lat_select 2308 set_bits: me 0xA011808, testing fd 7 (/tmp/t904.0) 4738 7219524 [main] lat_select 2308 set_bits: ready 1 4472 7223996 [main] lat_select 2308 set_bits: me 0xA0117D8, testing fd 6 (/tmp/t904.0) 4487 7228483 [main] lat_select 2308 set_bits: ready 1 4573 7233056 [main] lat_select 2308 set_bits: me 0xA0117A8, testing fd 5 (/tmp/t904.0) 4601 7237657 [main] lat_select 2308 set_bits: ready 1 4601 7242258 [main] lat_select 2308 set_bits: me 0xA011778, testing fd 4 (/tmp/t904.0) 4422 7246680 [main] lat_select 2308 set_bits: ready 1 4597 7251277 [main] lat_select 2308 select_stuff::poll: returning 75 4576 7255853 [main] lat_select 2308 select_stuff::cleanup: calling cleanup routines 4623 7260476 [main] lat_select 2308 select_stuff::~select_stuff: deleting select records ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 14184 7274660 [main] lat_select 2308 handle_exceptions: In cygwin_except_handler exc 0xC0000005 at 0xB0 sp 0x22F91C I hope this help to fix this bug Ralf
