Subject: [PATCH] PATCH [perl #106212] Add PL_perlio_mutex to
atfork_lock/unlock
Using threads + fork() on Linux, and IO operations in the threads, the
PL_perlio_mutex may be left in a locked state at the call of fork(),
potentially leading to deadlock in the child process at subsequent IO
operations. (Threads are pre-empted and not continued in the child
process after the fork.)
Therefore, ensure that the PL_perlio_mutex is unlocked in the child
process, right after fork(), by using atfork_lock/unlock.
(The RT text gives ways to reproduce the problem, but are not easily
added to Perl's test suite)
