DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2

This problem impacts DB2 systems executing nested routines on 
the UNIX platform only. 
 
When running nested procedures/routines, memory allocations 
meant for the persistent server-side memory area may become 
allocated from the non-persistent client-side memory area (used 
when trusted routines are executed).  The client-side memory 
area becomes freed when there are no longer any agents with 
cached trusted routines, which typically occurs only on systems 
with lower levels of activity (agents cached routines for the 
life of a connection).  Memory allocations allocated incorrectly 
from the client side may become invalid, causing a trap when 
they are subsequently accessed. 
 
Known vulnerable trusted DB2 routines include : 
ADMIN_LIST_HIST ( also called when accessing the DB_HISTORY 
admin view ) 
DB_GET_CFG ( also called when accessing the DBCFG admin view ) 
 
DB2 trap files may contain call stacks similar to the following 
: 
sqloCrashOnCriticalMemoryValidationFailure 
sqlofmblkEx 
sqlddFreeDD 
sqlddFreeDD 
sqljParseDsc 
 
sqloCrashOnCriticalMemoryValidationFailure 
sqlofmblkEx 
sqldReleaseWorkAreaMem 
sqldTermAgent

****************************************************************

Creating a persistent connection on each partition and executing 
a trusted routine will keep the client-side memory area active 
within the server process, preventing memory from becoming 
invalid.
