uipc_socket.c


Hi,

I may have found a potential bug in
packages/net/bsd_tcpip/current/src/sys/kern/uipc_socket.c (or I may be
completely wrong :-).

At the end of sodealloc(), the following code exists:
       zfreei(so->so_zone, so);
       wakeup(so->so_zone);
The problem is that zfreei() changes so->so_zone.  Shouldn't wakeup() be
done on the original so->so_zone?  I only noticed this problem by:
1- while(1) { 
   sock = socket( AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP );
   connect( sock, ... );
   close( sock );
   }
   Eventually this pauses in socket() (in cyg_tsleep()) when you run out
of eCos sockets.  

2- After 2*MSL or so, cyg_wakeup() gets called with chan == 0x0.  Why?
The zfreei() call in sodealloc() changes so->so_zone to 0 before the
wakeup() call.

The following diff solves the problem for me by making the wakeup() work
on the so_zone that was freed:

 }

Any ideas?  Suggestions?

Thanks,
Will
