Hi Ernest,
> CAS: no space in pool for a new client (below max block thresh)
This happens when osiSufficentSpaceInPool return FALSE. The CA server tries
its best to not use the very last bit of memory (of RAM), and it calls
osiSufficentSpaceInPool to find out when it's getting too close to the end.
If its vxWorks or RTEMS it may be that your IOC is in a RAM limited
situation, or its system pool is severely fragmented. Also, the RTEMS
implementation of osiSufficentSpaceInPool is more recent than the vxWorks
version (which is probably unmodified since the early 90s).
On other OS we currently assume that running out of RAM isn't much of an
issue because of page files, and or no one has taken time to implement a
better approach, so osiSufficentSpaceInPool always returns TRUE.
On RTEMS:
/*
* osiSufficentSpaceInPool ()
*/
epicsShareFunc int epicsShareAPI osiSufficentSpaceInPool ( size_t
contiguousBlockSize )
{
rtems_malloc_statistics_t s;
unsigned long n;
malloc_get_statistics(&s);
n = s.space_available - (unsigned long)(s.lifetime_allocated -
s.lifetime_freed);
return (n > (50000 + contiguousBlockSize));
}
On vxWorks:
/*
* osiSufficentSpaceInPool ()
*/
epicsShareFunc int epicsShareAPI osiSufficentSpaceInPool ( size_t
contiguousBlockSize )
{
epicsThreadOnce ( &osdMaxBlockOnceler, osdSufficentSpaceInPoolInit, 0 );
if ( UINT_MAX - 100000u >= contiguousBlockSize ) {
return ( osdMaxBlockSize > 100000 + contiguousBlockSize );
}
else {
return 0;
}
}

With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is
not necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they
are going to land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them
as they fly overhead. -- RFC 1925
