Re: CRASH ANALYSIS of VAX/VMS server
But the MSGVEC argument to the SYS$PUTMSG call looks VERY suspicious:
The call frame to SYS$PUTMSG from your code (return address = 005E8ED3) presents ONE argument to SYS$PUTMSG - the argument list is on the stack:
Argument List: 7FF75210 00000001
______________ 7FF75214 7FF75218
The first argument to SYS$PUTMSG is the message vector MSGVEC passed by reference. So the MSGVEC starts at 7FF75218 and looks like this:
7FF75218: 7FF7562D <<< def msg options & arg count !
7FF7521C: 0001827A <<< message code = %RMS-E-EOF
7FF75220: 00000000 <<< STV value
7FF75224: 00000000
...
The argument count field, the low 16 bits of the first longword in the message vector is DEFINITELY WRONG ! It should have been 0001 ! EXE$PUTMSG 'walks' the argument vector based on the argument count. It may well walk into in-accessible address space based on that incorrect value of 562D.
Please use SDA> SHOW PROC/IMAGE to find out, which code is at address 005E8ED3, find the map and listings and the programmer (!) and check the construction of the MSGVEC for this call to SYS$PUTMSG.

SDA> EXA 19C250
SDA> EXA @19C250
SDA> EXA/INS @19C250;10
This could finally even lead us to determine the reason for the HALT

Re: CRASH ANALYSIS of VAX/VMS server
Here is an example instruction stream from the application:
00195D27: BRW 00195DEF
00195D2A: PUSHL #10000002
00195D30: CALLS #01,@0019C250
00195D37: BLBS R0,00195D4D <<< return address
00195D3A: PUSHL R2
00195D3C: MOVL #0EC0DE07,R2
00195D43: BUGW #0160 <<< issue HALT bugcheck !!!
The saved PC on the kernel stack should point to the application code declaring the HALT bugcheck, so please provide the following data:
SDA> EXA/INS 195FEB-10;10
The non-fatal bugcheck entries can be reproduced easily with the following piece of MACRO code:
.entry halt, ^m<>
$cmkrnl_s routin=halt_cpu
MOVZWL #1, R0
ret
.entry halt_cpu, ^m<>
bug$_halt=^x160
BUGW
.WORD
ret
.end halt
Fix the problems in your application and those crashes will go away. If you need further assistance, please consider to contact me offline (see e-mail address in my ITRC profile).

Re: CRASH ANALYSIS of VAX/VMS server
SDA> EXA/INS 000BE3F4;20
I'm even more interested in:
SDA> EXA/INS 195FEB-10;20
This PC is found on the kernel stack in the crash and should reflect the last instruction executed before the crash !
