DB2 CONNECT / DB2CONNCT / 970 - DB2

The db2trc executable that is shipped with the CLI/ODBC driver 
uses the "-cli" component customer formatter trace option by 
default when formatting a trace dump file ("format/fmt" 
command). 
 
 
If the trace dump contains a very long CLI message then db2trc 
might trap because of a corrupted stack. 
Note: The trap might also manifest in hang/looping within the 
SEGV signal handler. 
Such a long message text has been observed when parsing the 
trace dump record for a CLI SQLGetDiagFieldW() call. 
 
A stack trace gathered when running db2trc within a debugger 
like gdb shows: 
 
(gdb) run fmt ddntt.dmp ddntt.fmt 
Starting program: /workbig/user/clidriver/adm/db2trc fmt 
ddntt.dmp ddntt.fmt 
Trace truncated                   : NO 
Trace wrapped                     : NO 
Total number of trace records     : 44585 
 
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 
0x0000000000423c05 in sqltcliTrcFmt () 
(gdb) where 
#0  0x0000000000423c05 in sqltcliTrcFmt () 
#1  0x006400650073006e in ?? () 
#2  0x0069006800740020 in ?? () 
#3  0x0072007000200073 in ?? () 
... 
 
The top function will show sqltcliTrcFmt() while the rest of the 
call stack is corrupted.
