Has anybody out there brought up pathalias under SCO XENIX? I get a
segmentation violation if I try to run enough map data through it. Moving
up in compiler models (M->L->H) and disabiling Peter's malloc stuff forstalls
the dump, but it still occurs. The dump occurs in hash() when it makes its
probe into the hash table:
.
.
>>> while ((n = Table[probe]) != 0) {
if (unique)
goto skip;
.
.
The "probe" value looks reasonable and is within the value of "Tabsize".
I haven't looked any further than this. If anybody has found what it
takes to get this up, I'd really like to see what you did. Thanks.

the maps are up to about 15,000 hosts and 40,000 links. it costs 16 bytes per link, 40 bytes per host. (as i recall ... citi is down, so i don't have def.h in front of me.) multiplying out, that's a megabyte or so. can sco xenix handle > 1M address space? i'm surprised mymalloc() failed before malloc(). i'd have thought that was impossible. peter

I decided to post rather than mail as this is probably of interest to Xenix users in general. The problem is that ptr != int. Table is declared extrn node **Table; Comparing this to 0 will not work in 286 Large model. If the 0 is changed to NULL - declared in stdio.h as ((char *) 0) and disable the malloc stuff. It will work. You will also need -Ml and -F 4000 otherwise you will run out of stack. -- John Pettitt UUCP :{backbone}!mcvax!ukc!pyrltd!slxsys!jpp Specialix Systems Domain :jpp%slxsys@pyra.co.uk London, UK.

For anyone interested an altered version of the new pathalias is available for uucp on the system turnkey. This code was made available by Greg Laskin of gryphon. CTS.COM and it works wonderfully. It took the whole world maps without any complaint. Many thanks to Greg for his efforts!! For those interested in obtaining the archive, call turnkey at (714)662-7450 and login as 'nuucp'. The default baud rate is 2400, if you call at 1200 it will be necessary to send a return to cause the uugetty to cycle down to 1200. The archive path is "/usr/spool/uucppublic/palias.tar.Z". The archive includes both the source code and a compiled binary (under SCO Xenix 2.2.1) of pathalias for those that don't want the hassle of compiling it. All the best, -- Jack F.

But assuming you are Xenix 286 addresses 16M (the address space of the 80286), and Xenix386 handles 4 Gigabyes in unsegmented mode. As I indicated in a previous posting the problem with pathalias arises because of the segmentation on the 286 machine. Greg Laskin (greg@gryphon.CTS.COM) has ported the pathalias code to Xenix 286 and it handles the complete world maps flawlessly. For anyone that missed that article the altered archive can be obtained uucp from the system turnkey at (714) 662-7450. Login is nuucp, if you call at 1200 send an initial character or return to cyle uugetty down to 1200 baud. Request the file "/usr/spool/uucppublic/palias.tar.Z". It includes both a compiled binary and the source code. Best of luck, Jack -- Jack F. Vogel Turnkey Computer Consultants, Costa Mesa, CA UUCP: ...!uunet!turnkey!jack Internet: jack@turnkey.TCC.COM

It will work. according to the c reference manual, section 7.7, paragraph 2, your compiler is broken. peter
