Hi,
Ok, then in my case mem_join is not enabled.
So the scenario is plausible, right? 8M of free private memory doesn't mean neccesarily that there is a contiguous chunk of 200K. So such a big pkg alloc can fail?
Thank you

Hi Lucian,
the mem_join is enabled by default -- I checked from 4.1.x to 4.3.x. In the Makefile.defs should be a:
C_DEFS+= -DMEM_JOIN_FREE
In 4.4 I just noticed it was lost when I added the feature to select the memory manger with command line option -x. I will fix it.
Even MEM_JOIN_FREE is enabled at compile, you still need mem_join=1 in your configuration file (the default value is mem_join=0). Also, you can change the value for mem_join at runtime, via kamcmd/rpc commands.
Cheers, Daniel

Hi Daniel,
Thank you for yesterday's input.
By doing some debugging on the 'no private memory left' I came to the conclusion that there is enough private memory as a whole to allocate the required amount, but that there is no single free chunk big enough to accommodate the required size. This is a valid scenario when MEM_JOIN_FREE is 0, right?
Btw, how can I determine if I have this MEM_JOIN_FREE set or not? I am looking in `kamailio -V ` output and in the kamailio.cfg and mem_join is not set. I cannot determine in which version MEM_JOIN_FREE is supposed to be set by default - how can I find this?
Thank you, Lucian

Hi again,
I get the pkg mem error inside the mi_fifo module and this seems not to be part of the `kamcmd pkg.stats`. I guess the only way to debug this mi_fifo process is by way of gdb as in https://www.kamailio.org/wiki/tutorials/troubleshooting/memory, right?
Thank you, Lucian

Hi Daniel,
While debugging a 'no private memory left' issue by using `kamcmd pkg.stats` we stumbled upon data we don't understand. Could you help with some information?
`kamcmd pkg.stats`returns free values of about 8M per process with an exception: kamailio with no apparent problems: `timer` process: free value: 8M used value: 100M real_used: 308M. kamailio with no private memory left: `timer` process: free value: 8/9M used value: 98M real_used: 662M (both mentioned kamailios have roughly the same load)
Are these timer values normal? What is this real_used value and how can it be bigger than the allocated pkg mem? Additionally, how come we don't see the fifo process pkg stats in the output of `kamcmd pkg.stats`?
We get the error message when doing reloading backlists via kamctl fifo.
Thank you, Lucian Balaceanu
