This diff was inspired by thread [1]. As I explained [2] here is 3
issues that cause panics produced by command below:
---- cut begin ----
for i in 1 2 3; do while true; do ifconfig bridge0 create& \
ifconfig bridge0 destroy& done& done
---- cut end ----
My system was stable with the last diff I did for thread [1]. But since
this final diff [3] which include fixes for tun(4) is quick and dirty
and not for commit I decided to make the diff to fix the races caused by
if_clone_create() at first.
I included screenshot with panic.
Also the code to reproduce below:
---- cut begin ----
#!/bin/sh
while true; do ifconfig bridge0 create& done&
while true; do ifconfig bridge0 destroy done
---- cut end ----
