Ben Shelton acfe054e32 busybox: mdev: Ensure /dev/initctl exists after tmpfs mount 
During boot, there is a brief window during which /dev/initctl is
missing, which breaks initscripts that would need to access it. This
occurs because /etc/init.d/mountall.sh (rcS.d/S02...) attempts to ensure
/dev/initctl is present, but /etc/init.d/mdev (rcS.d/S06...) mounts over
/dev and clobbers the work done by mountall, and then does not wait
synchronously until initctl is ready before continuing.

To close this window, in /etc/init.d/mdev, we check whether /dev/initctl
is present, and if not, we remove it and recreate it.  This is the same
thing that is done by /etc/init.d/mountall.sh, and we have verified that
any writers of /dev/initctl will wait synchronously until sysvinit
notices the change in fd and does the read, so no race exists.

#!/bin/sh

mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /dev -o size=64k,mode=0755 mkdir /dev/pts /dev/shm chmod 777 /dev/shm mount -t devpts devpts /dev/pts touch /dev/mdev.seq echo "/sbin/mdev" > /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug mdev -s

We might have mounted something over /dev, see if /dev/initctl is there.

if test ! -p /dev/initctl then rm -f /dev/initctl mknod -m 600 /dev/initctl p fi
