I've updated the webrev. I had thought about this and I thought it was only consequent to also hold the lock when calling mac_open as it was also helt when calling mac_close. At any rate, This way might save a deadlock in future. http://cr.opensolaris.org/~nigoroll/4289_softmac_create_task__mutex_exit_on_unhelt_mutex/ TODO: - need at least positive review - need a sponsor Thanks, Nils _______________________________________________ networking-discuss mailing list [email protected]
