ronniebrash:

On a mostly vanilla Atmel at91sam9g20-ek with 32MB of RAM, we are seeing a couple of errors using the current package software version + patches.

Overall, it may be the cross compilation process, overlay or something else entirely.

** 1. If the vpnbridge is already started, a NAND-WAIT stacktrace results if the binary is executed to instantiate a second instance.**

  1. If the vpnbridge is instantiated only once, and the vpn client is to be executed, a realloc error occurs:

/usr/bin/env LANG=en_US.UTF-8 ./vpnclient
Fatal Error: InternalReAlloc: error: realloc() failed.

Aborted

This is on 4.4.36 LEDE trunk with a FS that looks like:

Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/root 7.4M 7.4M 0 100% /rom
tmpfs 25.3M 2.7M 22.6M 11% /tmp
tmpfs 25.3M 44.0K 25.2M 0% /tmp/root
tmpfs 512.0K 0 512.0K 0% /dev
/dev/mtdblock2 50.0M 2.2M 47.8M 4% /overlay
overlayfs:/overlay 50.0M 2.2M 47.8M 4% /

Any assistance would be helpful.

It looks to me as if you're running out of ram.

ronniebrash:

Agreed, however, top says there is 21MB free before executing the vpnbridge, and 18MB before the vpnclient.

And during the execution? Maybe there's also endian issues in softethervpn, causing it to allocate huge amounts of memory?

ronniebrash:

I will investigate the execution, but you are correct - the memory consumption is what is causing this issue. I have removed portions of the applications such that I only need the vpncmd and vpnbridge applications; the device doesn't crash.

I also had to play with the sysctrl var for min_free_kbyres (lowered it to 2048, and have been experimenting with 1024) and this also is increasing system stability.

I may have to work with the gentlemen who provided the package softether to LEDE/Openwrt to help make it more modular to reduce the run-time size. He was only testing on MIPs.
