TS-4896: TSHttp***ClientAddrGet/TSHttp***IncomingAddrGet may return NULL Several of our plugins would experience crashes once we tightened up clean up on session shutdown. They assumed that the TSHttp{Txn|Ssn}ClientAddrGet and TSHttp{Txn|Ssn}IncomingAddrGet calls would never return NULL. If the client initiates the shutdown, the underlying netvc may get cleaned up before the sessions, transactions, and state machines were completely shutdown. The original code would return NULL in that case. In our version, we added this logic to cache the address information and use that data if the vc has been cleaned up. This avoided spinning changes in the plugins.
