Since IF_AFDATA isn't a sleepable lock (e.g. an sx lock), it is not safe
to do a copyin() while holding this lock. A better approach would probably
be something like:
struct sbuf *new, *old;
case SIOCSIFDESCR:
/* priv check */
new = sbuf_new_auto();
if (new == NULL)
return (ENOMEM);
if (sbuf_copyin(new, ifr->ifr_buffer.buffer,
ifr->ifr_buffer.length) == -1) {
sbuf_delete(new);
return (EFAULT);
}
IF_AFDATA_WLOCK(ifp);
old = ifp->if_description;
ifp->if_description = new;
getmicrotime(&ifp->if_lastchange);
IF_AFDATA_WUNLOCK(ifp);
if (old != NULL)
sbuf_delete(old);
break;
