[Unbound-users] which module inform_super callback was called in when the execution path is mesh_make_new_space()->mesh_walk_super()?

Hi Wijngaards,

I understand and also read the code of the event-driven model of
unbound. I'm wondering that is it a bug in mesh_walk_supers(), only
the current module's inform_super() function is called. Why not all
the modules' inform_super() are called or only the first module's
inform_super() is called.

While I'm typing I realized that I misread this line of the code of
mesh_walk_supers()

(*mesh->mods.mod[ref->s->s.curmod]->inform_super)(&mstate->s,
			ref->s->s.curmod, &ref->s->s);

the inform_super being called is the super states's current module,
not the child's.

Sorry for my carelessness. Thank you for your help. I have the answer now.
