s3-aio-fork: Fix a segfault in vfs_aio_fork
aio_suspend does not signal the main process with a signal, it just waits. The aio_fork module does not use the signal at all, it directly calls back into the main smbd by calling smbd_aio_complete_aio_ex. This is an abstraction violation, but the alternative would have been to use signals where they are not needed. However, in wait_for_aio_completion this bites us: With aio_fork we call handle_aio_completed twice on the same aio_ex struct: Once from the call to handle_aio_completion within the aio_fork module and once from the code in wait_for_aio_completion. This patch fixes it in a pretty bad way by introducing flag variables and more state. But the mid-term plan is to replace the posix aio calls from the vfs and do pread_send/recv and pwrite_send/recv at the vfs layer, so this will significantly change anyway. Thanks to Kirill Malkin <kirill.malkin@starboardstorage.com> for reporting this crash! Autobuild-User: Volker Lendecke <vl@samba.org> Autobuild-Date: Sat Mar 31 15:25:55 CEST 2012 on sn-devel-104
