<pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">Bah. Indeed. The whole point originally was to be able to unload res_calendar and the dependent modules with "module unload res_calendar.so". Oh, well. At least this makes it obvious why it isn't unloading in that case and still allows it to shut down properly.</pre>

<pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">Looks like ast_unload_resource calls ast_module_user_hangup_all() (right before calling ->unload()) which frees the module_user as well. Having a function which goes in and frees a pointer that you have without giving you any way of knowing that has happened is kind of irritating. For now, I'll just take out the loop. In the future, it might be nice for there to be a pre-unload callback or something. For now, I give up.</pre>

Even if we do take out the code, a "module unload -h res_calendar.so" will still unload res_calendar without unloading the other modules. Then if those modules are unloaded, the same error will show up. Basically, using module unload -h is unsafe in any case, but I think it is less unsafe having the modules unloaded than it is having them stick around without res_calendar existing--which will almost certainly eventually cause a crash.</pre>

<pre style="margin: 0; padding: 0; white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">res_calendar calls ast_unload_resource for the related tech modules when it is unloaded. If this happens through a 'core stop gracefully', then it will be unloading the tech modules that are already in the list that is being traversed (supposedly safely) for unloading, eventually causing a double free. The problem seems to be that ast_unload_resource, while it calls the unload() callback function for the module, does not actually unlink the module from the list of modules. So the AST_LIST_TRAVERSE_SAFE_BEGIN {} still iterates over the unloaded module.
This patch causes ast_unload_resource to call AST_LIST_REMOVE on successfully unloaded modules.</pre>
