Summary0005553: Crash when unloading module with moddata
DescriptionIt seems the server may crash when unloading a module with moddata if that module has an event added.
This is due to DoEvent -> e_unload_module_delayed -> which unloads the module and removes the event. However:
for (e = events; e; e = e_next)
{
        e_next = e->next;

and the next event may also be deleted, if it happened to belong to the module that just got unloaded.

Should be fixed in https://github.com/unrealircd/unrealircd/commit/9887ef69555ba6b548de88583e10da78100ad00f
I was unable to easily reproduce the case myself (I always prefer reproducing it so i can see a clear 'before and after'-effect) but anyway.. it should be fixed now.

commit 9887ef69555ba6b548de88583e10da78100ad00f (HEAD -> unreal50, origin/unreal50)

    Fix possible crash when unloading a module with moddata.
    This only happens in some circumstances.
    
    From now on EventDel() will simply mark the event as deleted.
    The actual freeing is started in DoEvents() after the event loop.
    This makes it safe to use EventDel() everywhere.
    
    The previous attempt to fix that issue was
    d29a55a8db57a14836fac8ab86bb2ebf1f6fcd7f but it introduced a
    new crash issue for a slightly different case, as mentioned in
    https://bugs.unrealircd.org/view.php?id=5553
