Since you have one mutex and one label for both ends of the bi-directional pipe, why don't you just use the code already in place for destroying the mutex 'safely' to also destroy the label? In other words, pipeclose() has this `hadpeer' variable which it increments if it finds that the other end exists (and the mutex is grabbed, then). In other words, just group the label destroy with the mutex destroy. If one is wrong, they're both wrong and you can fix them both at the same time. I think that you should only be destroying the label if it hasn't already been initialized, as well. It could be that this is a partially created pipe and so the mutex (and possibly the label?) have not yet been created. I would examine this further myself but it'll have to wait... :-( > Affected files ... > > .. //depot/projects/trustedbsd/mac/sys/kern/sys_pipe.c#13 edit > > Differences ... > > ==== //depot/projects/trustedbsd/mac/sys/kern/sys_pipe.c#13 (text+ko) ==== > > @@ -1369,7 +1369,7 @@ > /* > * Destroy MAC data > */ > - if (cpipe->pipe_peer) > + if (cpipe->pipe_peer == NULL) > mac_destroy_pipe(cpipe); > #endif /* MAC */ > > -- Bosko Milekic bmilekic@unixdaemons.com bmilekic@FreeBSD.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe p4-projects" in the body of the message
