BIND 9.4.3b2 crash

[Dale Blount]

Hi,

I have several authoritative and recursive combined servers running bind
9.4.3b2 that all crash in the same manor.  They will normally run for a
day or two between crashes, however.  The syslog messages only show:

Jul 21 12:08:32 named[17892]: socket.c:1710: fatal error:
Jul 21 12:08:32 named[17892]:
RUNTIME_CHECK(((pthread_mutex_destroy(((&sock->lock))) == 0) ? 0 : 34)
== 0) failed
Jul 21 12:08:32 named[17892]: exiting (due to fatal error in library)

but elsewhere in the log it has these messages (don't result in named
exiting):

Jul 21 10:53:39 named[17892]: socket.c:525: unexpected error:
Jul 21 10:53:39 named[17892]: epoll_ctl(DEL), 73: Bad file descriptor
Jul 21 10:53:39 named[17892]: socket.c:525: unexpected error:
Jul 21 10:53:39 named[17892]: epoll_ctl(DEL), 69: Bad file descriptor

9.4.2 was quite a bit more stable (although I won't say it never exited,
different errors though IIRC) on the same hardware / OS patch level.
Both servers average 50-100 recursive clients, although I've seen spikes
to 2000+ (which I imagine is malicious traffic or bots trying to exploit
the recent vulnerability that I upgraded to fix).

Anything I can try to stop these crashes?

Thanks,
