I can see the race condition without first obtaining the lock; however, why should the behavior of TRANSFER_READY be changed? With this code change, a TRANSFER_READY doesn&#39;t transition to TRANSFER_MEDIA. Additionally, we don&#39;t handle the &#39;any other state is a release&#39; condition any longer.

This change may be completely correct, but based on the problem description, I&#39;m not sure why it&#39;s needed or what other side effects it may have.</pre>

2). stop_stuff() which calls iax2_destroy_helper()
    Assumes the lock on the pvt is already held, when iax2_destroy_helper() is called.
    Thus we need to lock the bridgecallno pvt before we call stop_stuff(iaxs[fr-&gt;callno]-&gt;bridgecallno);

3). When evaluating the state of &#39;callno-&gt;transferring&#39; of the current leg, we can&#39;t change it to READY unless the bridgecallno is locked.
    Why, if we are interrupted by the other call leg before &#39;transferring = TRANSFER_RELEASED&#39;, the interrupt will find that it is READY and that the bridgecallno is also READY so Releases the legs.
    Then the first call leg in this example, finishes execution, and Releases the legs AGAIN!!!!!!!
    Interleaving thread execution gets interesting as well - see timeline below from June 5.
