[Asterisk-Users] Avoided deadlock

[Brian West]

Repeat after me... WARNING != ERROR.  This is just letting you know that it
walked the channel list and did avoid a dead lock by not trying to grab a
lock on a channel that's already locked.

            if (ast_mutex_trylock(&l->lock)) {
                if (retries < 10)
                    ast_log(LOG_DEBUG, "Avoiding initial deadlock for
'%s'\n", l->name);
                else
                    ast_log(LOG_WARNING, "Avoided initial deadlock for '%s',
%d retries!\n", l->name, retries);


Read the code it tells you... channel.c
