I wrote some tips to the mail list a few days back; copied here for reference:

...

Particularly, the singleton SSL_CTX* here:

https://github.com/xrootd/xrootd/blob/master/src/XrdHttp/XrdHttpProtocol.cc#L1659

holds a pointer to a X509_STORE object. This object loads the CRLs at initialization but never reloads them. The SSL_CTX* is passed to libvomsapi through the callback registered by libXrdHTTPVOMS; in a finite amount of time, the CRLs expire.

An example of loading a new X509_STORE is here:

https://github.com/opensciencegrid/xrootd-lcmaps/blob/master/src/GlobusSupport.cc#L295

Unfortunately, to be able to know when you can safely delete the old object, you either need a stop-the-world global mutex wrapping the object or you can hash a few across threads as in here:

https://github.com/opensciencegrid/xrootd-lcmaps/blob/master/src/GlobusSupport.cc#L354

In that example, we only lock across 1/63 of the threads when we are reloading.
