Description Kamil Dudka 2017-04-25 10:46:09 EDT

Description of problem:
Implementation of the WaitForSlotEvent callback needs to be removed because users of nss-pem (namely libcurl and openldap) do not free PKCS #11 slot objects returned by SECMOD_WaitForAnyTokenEvent(), which later prevents the nss-pem module from being unloaded.  The following commit needs to be reverted:

https://github.com/kdudka/nss-pem/commit/eefef228


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
nss-pem-1.0.3-2.el7


Steps to Reproduce:
1. install nss-pem-1.0.3-2.el7 and libcurl-7.29.0-42.el7
2. load a private key from file using libcurl


Actual results:
nss-pem fails to unload


Expected results:
nss-pem unloads properly


Additional info:
This will reintroduce the one second sleep per each loading of a private key.
