The locking here was always too long - by holding the mutex during the
sync()
call, it meansg_cond_wait_until()
can never wake up (because its API requires the mutex to be locked).Confusingly though of course we do still print the "timed out" message, and I think that tricked us when we were doing testing here.
We only need to lock the mutex when we're manipulating shared state, which basically boils down to the
gboolean success
.
