| Doc Text: |
Cause: Under some rare circumstances certain operations may cause 389-ds to crash or not function properly.
Consequence: 389-ds may not be available.
Fix: NSPR read/write locks used by 389-ds are not re-entrant. The use of these locks were replaced with POSIX thread read-write locks instead in the IPA 389-ds plugins.
Result: 389 should not crash due to re-entrant locks.
