Full_Name: Rich Megginson Version: current tip of master branch OS: RHEL6 URL: ftp://ftp.openldap.org/incoming/0001-NSS_Init-functions-are-not-thread-safe.patch Submission from: (NULL) (76.26.104.137)
The NSS_InitContext et. al, and their corresponding shutdown functions, are not thread safe. There can only be one thread at a time calling these functions. Protect the calls with a mutex. Create the mutex using a PR_CallOnce to ensure that the mutex is only created once and not used before created. Move the registration of the nss shutdown callback to also use a PR_CallOnce. Removed the call to SSL_ClearSessionCache() because it is always called at shutdown, and we must not call it more than once.
