I add some code in the 'queue_msg' function, if the length of the queue is more than 100, the msg will be droped.
So, it won't to malloc too much more memory for the msg.
The msgs is generated when 'ctdbd_migrate', I don’t whether it can be droped.
The messages may be too much, or the sokcet maybe too busy.

Now my application scene is:
There are 3 samba server nodes, 3 clients connect to different servers, every client write 64k to 30 files every 40ms.
If open the current folder with windows explorer in a client, the RES with top command of smbd in that server will grow up very very quickly.

top -d 1 -p 2708752 -b | grep smbd

EINTR always means a signal was received and interrupted the send.

You're using 4.3.x yes ? In that branch:

static void unix_dgram_send_job(void *private_data) {
        struct unix_dgram_msg *dmsg = private_data;

        do {
                struct msghdr_buf *hdr = unix_dgram_msghdr(dmsg);
                struct msghdr *msg = msghdr_buf_msghdr(hdr);
                dmsg->sent = sendmsg(dmsg->sock, msg, 0);
        } while ((dmsg->sent == -1) && (errno == EINTR));

        if (dmsg->sent == -1) {
                dmsg->sys_errno = errno;
        }
}

we already loop on EINTR. What exact version are you using and what code did you add ?
