if registered dataload, Value() not thread safe

[winxxp]

// Value returns an item from the cache and marks it to be kept alive. You can
// pass additional arguments to your DataLoader callback function.
func (table *CacheTable) Value(key interface{}, args ...interface{}) (*CacheItem, error) {
	table.RLock()
	r, ok := table.items[key]
	loadData := table.loadData
	table.RUnlock()

	if ok {
		// Update access counter and timestamp.
		r.KeepAlive()
		return r, nil
	}

	// Item doesn't exist in cache. Try and fetch it with a data-loader.
	if loadData != nil {
		item := loadData(key, args...)
		if item != nil {
			table.Add(key, item.lifeSpan, item.data)
			return item, nil
		}

		return nil, ErrKeyNotFoundOrLoadable
	}

	return nil, ErrKeyNotFound
}

Can you elaborate a bit more?

if value is file handle, key is filename, so kV is filename -> file handle.
eg. thread 1,2,... call Value(filename) , and filename is not in cache, so all thread will call loadData to open same filename.
