Subject: [PATCH] lei_saved_search: avoid reentrancy in ->is_dup
Date: Sat, 24 Apr 2021 22:42:59 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210424224259.980-1-e@80x24.org> (raw)

Use a separate git process when calling xoids_for to prevent
reentrancy in ->is_dup.  Reentrancy happens since LeiToMail will
call ->is_dup when inside callbacks when writing mail.

This fixes --dedupe=mid test failures in t/lei-q-save.t

I could only reproduce this consistently on a uniprocessor VM.
"schedtool -a 0x1 -e ..." could not reproduce the problem on
2 and 4-core systems.
