------------------------------------
Summary: Epoll proactor unguarded memory access
Key: PROTON-1538
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROTON-1538
Project: Qpid Proton
Issue Type: Bug
Components: proton-c
Affects Versions: proton-c-0.18.0
Reporter: Cliff Jansen
Assignee: Cliff Jansen
Fix For: proton-j-0.18.0
ThreadSanitizer singled out the epoll_event for network sockets to be a risk of
out of order access by multiple threads.
On inspection it is possible that two threads could try rearming the socket out
of order, allowing the wrong events of interest to be registered.
Reusing the existing connection context mutex would be costly for
guarding this since the system call is frequent and relatively long
compared to other acquisitions of the mutex. Adding a new mutex that
guards this operation should fix things with negligible performance
cost.
