On 21 Oct I reported a problem I was having with inconsistent errors that appeared to be connected with libgcrypt and asynchronous sockets.
It turns out the problem was not specifically libgcrypt but gnutls_handshake(). What was happening was that the socket interrupt was calling gnutls_handshake() with a response from the server, interrupting the previous call to gnutls_handshake() that had not yet returned. The interrupt call to gnutls_handshake() obviously conflicting with the previous incomplete call to gnutls_handshake() and causing all sorts of inconsistent errors. I have used a mutex to protect gnutls_hansdshake() and the problems have gone away. Would it be possible to build protection into the library for this?
