Subject: CA gatway runs away when zero length PV name in UDP search request

Dear all,

I have a problem with CA gateway that it runs away and all PVs
subscribing via ca-gateway become disconnected. The problem occurred 4
times in past 6 month and each time I had to restart CA gateway. I'm
using CA gataway 2.1.0 with EPICS base 3.14.12.3 on Scientific Linux
6.8 (RHEL 6.8 clone).

The log file contains following message:
====
CAS Request: ? on jkjnuc31.ccr.jkcont:40325: cmd=6 cid=76 typ=5 cnt=11
psz=32 avail=4c
CAS:
Apr 20 06:29:30 !!! Errlog message received (message is above)
zero length PV name in UDP search request?
====
The machine in the logfile, jkjnuc31.ccr.jkcont (we're using private
network for accelerator control),  is one of our PCs running
CS-Studio. I replaced the machine with different one, upgraded CSS
from 4.1.1 to 4.4.1, but jkjnuc31 is sure to be involved every time.

I attached to the process during the inspection and got following back-trace:
====
(gdb) bt

====
It seems that gateway falls into an infinite loop within
casDGClient::processDG().

Any help would be appreciated and thanks in advance.
Best regards,
