Subject: [PATCH] tevent: Fix a race condition
3264a5
3264a5
We can't rely on tctx to exist after we unlocked the mutex. It took a
3264a5
while, but this does lead to data corruption. If *tctx is replaced with
3264a5
something where tctx->wakeup_fd points to a real, existing file
3264a5
descriptor, we're screwed. And by screwed, this means file corruption
3264a5
on disk.

Again. I am not tall enough for this business.
