Comments

  • This APAR is associated with SPR# SEGN974F8K.
    For 9.0 the memory management scheme was changed for the MIME
     to CD converter's HTML parser to reduce the number of handles
     used during conversion.  The parser was changed to make
     pool-based allocations rather than handle based allocations,
     greatly reducing the number of handles required for large HTML
     entities.    For example, the number of handles required in
     extreme cases is now less than .1% of the number previously
     required.    However, there was a bug in the parser's
     implementation of the pool based scheme:  one string, which
     was not allocated using the pool-based memory manager but
     rather the handle-based, was freed as if it had been allocated
     from the pool.    Sometimes this would crash us immediately as
     the free routine would detect that the memory block was not
     part of the pool, sometimes this detection would not work and
     we would crash later when we tried to free the entire pool
     (corruption took place during the errant free) and sometimes
     we may not have crashed at all.    This change fixes that bug,
     freeing the handle based memory correctly, and it also insures
     that if any other parser code ever calls the pool based free
     incorrectly, we will Panic in non-production and gracefully
     return an error in production.
