Author: pjd Date: Wed Sep 22 19:03:11 2010 New Revision: 213007 URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/213007 Log: Fix possible deadlock where worker process sends an event to the main process while the main process sends control message to the worker process, but worker process hasn't started control thread yet, because it waits for reply from the main process. The fix is to start the control thread before sending any events.
