Hi,

I seeing some SIGBUS faults during startup in the debug version of my
app, but only when running under valgrind, and only for some clients.
The faults appear to be occurring around the same location in the
sqlite WAL code. If I disable WAL then there are no faults. If I don't
run it under valgrind then there are no problems (so don't run it
under valgrind?). I don't know if this problem is caused by my code or
perhaps an issue in the sqlite WAL code caused by timing (since the
startup is much slower under valgrind).

The error occurs with a newly created database file containing a
number of tables and data. It is small -> about 80kb. I've upgraded
everything to latest versions and the problem persists, currently
using valgrind 3.6.1 and sqlite 3.7.7.1 (amalgamation). CentOS 5.6.
app built with gcc 4.4.4. I'm not using any sqlite compile time flags.

The app is a parent process that does a fork/exec of 5 children (same
results with different numbers of children). Each child runs some
simple test code mostly simultaneously. I find that usually 1 child
faults, sometimes more or less. The busy handler is usually called a
number of times for the clients, sometimes delaying for up to a few
seconds before retrying.

The parent may have multiple database connections open at the time of
the fork. They are closed in the child process before the exec. I
can't close them before that as they are in active use in the parent.
I've checked that there are no open file descriptors (other than those
that valgrind has) at the time of process startup.

If there is something that anyone can suggest to narrow down the
problem then I would be interested to hear it.

Regards,
Brodie
