bin_sub_avg (python) & analysis_sinkf (c/c++) are custom blocks.
the function of Bin Sub Avg, which is written in Python, is to start a background task which periodically (in this case hourly) samples the input signal, calculates the background noise and subtracts it from the signal that is passed the the Analysis_sinkf module.
Analys_sinkf monitors each bin and only when specific thresholds for the bin are met (ie duration, strength) is the signal written out to a signal file. Signals not passing the criteria are dropped.
This code base has been running for over 3 years, with the original system implementation about 8/9 years ago.
I have traced the problem to the input signal into bin_sub_avg when the number of fft bins is 3 million (2 million works). At 3 million bins, any reference to the result of the delete_head() function in the python code causes a failure. The python code just fails without a traceback, then the invalid data stream is passed to the analysis_sinkf module which is C/C++ and it causes the segment fault.
Thus my suspicion is there is a limit in the fft block on the number of bins it can handle and some variable is overflowing, but this is a guess at this point. There may be a restriction in the gr.signature_io module, but that seems unlikely.
