I found a file that is causing this:
# clamscan a
LibClamAV Warning: fmap: failed to get MD5
LibClamAV Error: CRITICAL: fmap() failed
/tmp/a: Can't allocate memory ERROR
top says:
Mem: 2393M Active, 4926M Inact, 152K Laundry, 8602M Wired, 1990M Free
Swap: 16G Total, 1892M Used, 14G Free, 11% Inuse
File ‘a’ is a 4.1 GB mbox file. This is a 64-bit FreeBSD system. So is ClamAV trying to mmap that whole file into memory? I can’t find any options to change this behaviour.
There are some bugzilla reports here, but it’s still open:

Thanks Jim, I’ll try this.

Use "-o" instead of "--infected" and then you'll proably want to filter out
any messages that end in ": Empty file" or ": Symbolic link".

Hello,
I’m running a daily clamscan on my home directories, and lately I get this error message:
LibClamAV Warning: fmap: failed to get MD5
LibClamAV Error: CRITICAL: fmap() failed
I can’t figure out what file clamav is having trouble with. The command I use is:
/usr/bin/find [...] -print0 | xargs -0 /usr/local/bin/clamscan --infected --no-summary --official-db-only=yes
Versions:
Clam AntiVirus: Scanner 0.103.1
Running on FreeBSD 12.2-RELEASE-p3 GENERIC amd64
Any ideas?
Ben
