Description Markus Elfring 2009-06-04 20:20:18 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.1.3)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

The global variables "blks_mutex" and "wakeup_audio" are not properly initialised.
http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/KDE/kdemultimedia/libkcompactdisc/wmlib/cdda.c?view=markup&revision=826360

The functions "pthread_mutex_init" and "pthread_cond_init" should be called for this purpose to complete the initialisation of data structures for the used mutual exclusion.

Dear Bug Submitter,

This bug has been stagnant for a long time. Could you help us out and re-test if the bug is valid in the latest version? I am setting the status to NEEDSINFO pending your response, please change the Status back to REPORTED when you respond.

Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone!

(In reply to Andrew Crouthamel from comment #1)

Do you care for the safe initialisation of data structures by calls of the Pthread API for the used mutual exclusion in this software library?

Did you notice that the mentioned implementation details were not reconsidered so far?
