MySQL Bugs: #22547: Node crash is for max value of LongMessageBuffer

Bug #22547	Node crash is for max value of LongMessageBuffer
Submitted:	21 Sep 2006 15:17	Modified:	7 Dec 2006 5:12
Reporter:	Serge Kozlov
Status:	Closed
Category:	Server: Cluster	Severity:	S2 (Serious)
Version:	5.1.12 (beta)	OS:
Assigned to:	Guangbao Ni	Target Version:

Description:
Both ndbd node crashes if config has Max value for LongMessageBuffer (4294967039).

How to repeat:
1. Create a new config.ini with LongMessageBuffer=4294967039
2. Start cluster
3. Look at error and core files.

Suggested fix:
It seems that error message is correct (memory allocation failure), but why core files
appear...

Error/core files and config.ini
