Fixed in OpenPGM.

Committed fix, need to roll a release.

Yeah that was me. I logged issue 12.

It seems this is an OpenPGM bug. Once the issue is solved (issue 12) we have to update the OpenPGM version packaged with 0MQ.

Alright I think I found the issue.
The actual error was coming for the eventfd(0,0) call in the inlined function pgm_notify_init from notify.h. The sterror(errno) was "Too many open files". I did indeed find at some point the pgm_init code was opening > 1024 files.
Looking at the proc for the running process showed a whole lot of this:
The deal is in the openpgm framework in rand.c -the function pgm_rand_create looks like:
The issue of course is this bit right here:
The author is NOT checking that the value of fp is in error (ie fp != NULL). If errno has some garbage value from some other error, this do while will loop forever until it runs out of file descriptors per the process ulimit on the system (mine being 1024).
I was able to get by, by changing:
This is probably sub-optimal and not the best solution, but given it's a function which returns void I wasn't sure as to the best approach for signalling error back to the user.
Thanks
Having issue using IPv4 address as interface name:
My group looks like:
"epgm://10.145.17.1;239.192.1.1:7555"
Using zmq::socket_t my_zmq_socket;
my_zmq_socket.connect("epgm://10.145.17.1;239.192.1.1:7555")
When I run I get the following error:
Assertion failed: rc == 0 (connect_session.cpp:96)
This however works:
"eth1://10.145.17.1;239.192.1.1:7555"
