This change has been marked as submitted.


Review request for Asterisk Developers and Matt Jordan.


Bugs: AST-1179 and AST-1246
    https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/AST-1179
    https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/AST-1246


Repository: Asterisk


Description
-------

During dialplan execution in pbx_extension_helper(), the contexts global read lock is used prevent changes to the dialplan.  This patch puts a copy of exten->data on the stack so that can be referenced safely during variable substitution (expression evaluation) even if another thread is reloading dialplan and has deleted ast_exten.
