> The ast_activate_generator function in channel.c checks wether there exists an old generator and in that case, calls its release function. However, the ast_activate_generator function does not tidy up pointers, sets the timeout, etc. like the ast_deactivate_generator function does. As a result our Asterisk crashes at times, when it is under heavy load. It seems to be some kind of racing condition.
