When it hangs, this is what strace gives: [RHEL6.4@10.201.0.221 bin]# strace -p 23793 Process 23793 attached - interrupt to quit [ Process PID=23793 runs in 32 bit mode. ] shmget(0x110c1be, 16777216, 0666) = 3801140 shmat(3801140, 0, 0) = 0x85c2c70e7755000 shmctl(3801140, IPC_64|SHM_LOCK, 0^C <unfinished ...> 2. When we kill the application and generate a core file, Here is what gdb shows: Core was generated by ` <our application> 12 12 10.33.0.230 eth1 -1 0 3 fd5d:d50a:8c17:3300::e6'.
