Hi Dave: This is one of those cases where the cure is worse than the disease :) I added read locks in the policy timer to close an unlikely race, but I missed an unlock on the expire path which leads to all sort of weird things. I'll stay away from the timers for a while :) Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> -- Visit Openswan at http://www.openswan.org/ Email: Herbert Xu ~{PmV>HI~} <herbert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Home Page: http://gondor.apana.org.au/~herbert/ PGP Key: http://gondor.apana.org.au/~herbert/pubkey.txt
