The changed code is not protecting a traversal of a proc struct member with a proc lock in two places. What's hard to imagine? Even if it's weren't necessary to protect that FOREACH loop (it's necessary; but even if it weren't...), locking the proc could easily serialize a number of operations through that or other code which could save it from interference. -- Terry _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
