The most obvious problem lies in the input to your algorithm. The restpage array is a global array and will thus be initialised to contain only the value 0. You then use these array elements as the page-numbers you are requesting, which means that your algorithm processes only requests for page 0 if mem_size < 100.

And if mem_size >= 100, you are overrunning the array bounds and land squarely in the land of undefined behaviour.

There are two fixes you need to make:

1. Just as you are checking for a valid file in the command-line arguments, you must also check that mem_size is not too large
2. Write an additional loop to give each element in restpage a random value, to ensure not all page requests are for the same page.

---

You have dimensioned restpage to [100] but mem_size seems freely configurable, is this the intent?

mem_size = atoi(argv[2]);
fclose(stream);
..
for(i=0;i<mem_size;i++)
{
totalabsence+=find_victim(&pt,restpage[i]);
}

EDIT:

I see one bug in your new code, in your find_victim you don't initialize the local variable 'frame'

EDITx2:

When you read from the file you may just want to put one hex address on each line and use instead fgets() to read the file line by line (or load the whole file and go through it line by line).
