Hello John,

these warnings were added to provide more insight into some special crash 
situations if I remember correctly. They are generated when some 
inconsistencies in the internal DNS cache are detected during operations.

Some of these warnings were turned to DBG log level again in commit 
754f9ae28c9a731f, but not the ones you mentioned.

If you Kamailio servers run ok and don’t e.g. crash or show memory leaks, it’s 
probably not much to worry about. If it happens all the time for several people 
and/or you observe other issues, it’s probably also a good idea to investigate 
more, either fix it or silence them by change the log level to DBG as well.

Cheers,

Henning

Subject: [SR-Users] DNS Unlinked Warnings

Hi Everyone,

We recently attempted an upgrade from kamailio 5.5.7 to 5.7.6.  We immediately 
started to receive a log of warning logs similar to `dns_hash_put_shm_unsafe(): 
unlinked item 0x7f08799dcd90`

The code shows that this warning log was added to the DNS cache in september 
2023 - but its unclear what it means to have an unlinked item exactly? Is 
anyone able to shed any light on how DNS entries might become unlinked, and 
what the implications of it are?

thanks

John Larsen
