Problem description: | |
When running update statistics in a database containing tables with referential constraints it is possible that an AF with a stack similar to the following may occur if a reference is made to a freed data dictionary entry that has been re-used. afstack mt_ex_throw_sig afsig_handler hashfullname getddhptr getshdicptrx fndiccp checkrefdicp verrefinfo blddicref bldrefsx bldrefs maybe_bldrefs ip_sqloptim ip_sqloptim cmp_stmt cmp_proc pr_compile aud_pr_compile updprocstat excommand sq_execute sqmain listen_verify spawn_thread th_init_initgls startup This stack is an example from an instance running the update statistics for procedure command. References to freed data dictionary entries are normally intercepted and handled appropriately however depending on the content of the re-used memory block there may be specific patterns which are not handled correctly resulting in the above AF. | |
