Subject: Fix a segfault in threaded.c caused by passing uninitialized
X-Git-Tag: 2.0.22~12
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=943758e37019bfa1a0df596aa5428e9b751d7435;p=apache

Fix a segfault in threaded.c caused by passing uninitialized
apr_thread_t * to apr_thread_join().  Now we clear the array
of apr_thread_t * initially so we can track which threads we
actually created.

Other changes:

don't clobber storage by passing bogus array entry as 1st
parameter to apr_thread_create() to create the start_threads()
thread

join up with the start_threads() thread at termination so that
it is cleaned up and so that no worker threads are still being
created
