Re: TMTask and 10.4, 10.4.1



Well, which line is line 679?

The crash seems to have occurred inside your cmain_vbl code, while accessing memory through r0 or r2. What's going on in that code, near line 679 of pmcl-kernel.c?

The crash occurs seldom, on the order of once a day. More likely to
happen after the machine has been idle for some time (several hours).


Rumor has it that something changed in the implementation of TMTask
in 10.4

Here is the code that sets it up.

{
  TMTask *q = (TMTask *) NewPtrClear(sizeof(TMTask));
  /* cmain_descriptor = NewTimerProc(cmain_vbl); */
  cmain_descriptor = (TimerUPP)NewTimerUPP(cmain_vbl);

  q->qType = 0;  /* ?? */
  q->tmAddr = cmain_descriptor;
  q->tmCount = 1;
  cmain_vblQ = q;
  InsTime((QElem *) q);
  PrimeTime((QElem *) q, 15);
}

Any help would be much appreciated.
 Thank you.
