Also add a comment in connection_mark_for_close_internal_() on why we should not be adding extra code there without a very good reason. --- changes/bug30344 | 4 ++++ src/core/mainloop/connection.c | 18 ++++++++++++------ src/core/mainloop/mainloop.c | 10 ++++++++++ 3 files changed, 26 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-)
