Description Jaroslav Tulach 2008-10-29 09:48:25 UTC

In case of "inversion of control" waiting, one could get the request processor into a starvation. This happened quite 
often in datasystems tests, where modifications to disk happen in parael with scheduling and waiting for various 
tasks.

How old is this? Reported against 7.0 but I presume a (potential) problem for much longer.

Comment 4 Jaroslav Tulach 2008-10-29 17:56:14 UTC

The code is there since 3.4, at least, maybe it is there even for longer amount of time.
