Usually, segmentation fault means,
1) memory overflow,
2) compilation problem.
3) array allocation BUG.

The first two were eliminated by checking on
1) memory usage, and 2) validation.
The last one, the array BUG, is my biggest concern.
I need help to identify the location for a fix.

Dear abinit group,

I met an error information "Segmentation fault" when I use more k-points.
Does anyone have the same problem before? Would you please share how to solve this problem?

I checked that it is not memory problem, it seems some variables are too big.

Do I need to compile the source code with changing the digits of some variables?

Any input is appreciated!

Thanks,

Rose
