New Revision: 223061
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/223061
Log:
Fix a couple of race conditions in devstat(9) initialization.
In devstat_new_entry(), there is no need to initialize the queue
and the mutex in this function. There are ways to do static
initialization on both, so use STAILQ_HEAD_INITIALIZER and
MTX_SYSINIT to initialize the queue and the mutex.
In devstat_alloc(), use an atomic test and set routine to guard
making our entry in /dev. Using just a plain static variable
creates a race condition on multiprocessor machines. If you
attempt to create a second entry in devfs, the kernel will panic.
