I'm a little skeptical that this is a bug outside of mx or ib. Scott
do you get the same behavior from valgrind if you use tcp? Or even
get the same hang on sighup if you use tcp?

Hi Scott,
Just a shot into the wild...
Can you do
% mv /lib/tls /lib/tls.old
and then rerun the server with valgrind..
Quite possibly this is a valid bug in pvfs2, just wanted to find out
if the error message is any different after you do the above..
Don't forget to revert the rename
% mv /lib/tls.old /lib/tls
after you are done.
thanks,
Murali

That is good to know. Thanks.

When I try to use valgrind, the server fails to start with:

Setting the inout_parameter pointer to NULL has no effect.
