The single lock was previously cause for deadlocks + if extensive listeners, such as the one provided by the updown plugin, wanted + to acquire locks that were held by other threads which in turn tried to log + messages, and thus were waiting to acquire the same lock currently held by + the thread calling the listener. + The implemented changes also allow the use of a read/write-lock for the + loggers which increases performance if multiple loggers are registered. + Besides several interface changes this last bit also changes the semantics + for loggers as these may now be called by multiple threads at the same time. + + strongswan-4.6.3 ---------------- |
