Do you have some limits on number of processes (ulimit -a)?
What is your MaxThreads setting in clamd.conf?
If you think those limits are ok, open a bugreport on the bugzilla,
and attach the above info,
and possibly an strace output.
Also try running the program below to find out reason of failure:
/* gcc -o pthread_test.c -pthread pthread_test.c
* Run as:
* pthread_test MaxThreads
* where MaxThreads is your setting from clamd.conf
*/
#include <pthread.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <sched.h>
static pthread_mutex_t cond_mut;
static pthread_cond_t cond;
static pthread_attr_t attr;
static size_t tcnt=0;
static void* idle_func(void* arg)
{
pthread_mutex_lock(&cond_mut);
tcnt++;
pthread_cond_wait(&cond,&cond_mut);
pthread_mutex_unlock(&cond_mut);
return NULL;
}
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
pthread_t* threads;
size_t cnt, i;
if(argc!=2) {
fprintf(stderr,"Usage:%s <number of threads>\n",argv[0]);
return 1;
}
cnt = atoi(argv[1]);
threads = malloc(cnt*sizeof(*threads));
if(!threads) {
perror("Malloc failed");
return 2;
}
pthread_mutex_init(&cond_mut,NULL);
pthread_cond_init(&cond, NULL);

fprintf(stderr,"pthread_attr_init failed\n");

fprintf(stderr,"pthread_attr_setdetachstate failed\n");
return 4;
}
printf("Creating %u threads\n",cnt);
for(i=0;i<cnt;i++) {
