I've not > looked at what c-k does so maybe Marcus can answer the question better. It tries to install a wait thread on each available VT. That thread sets the WAITACTIVE ioctl, and waits for its VT to become active. When it does, it sets the CK active VT accordingly, and reattaches the wait. When an error occurs in the ioctl, no wait is attached, and CK will not know when a particular VT becomes active. This will essentially cripple CK (assuming the VT really does become available at a later point). Now, admittedly, there is no error correction in CK for this situation. It would be trivial to add something that periodically attempts to reestablish a failed wait. However, I am very curious why only a few users are seeing this panic (me excluded on two different machines). It seems to me that the scp should be initialized when sc_attach_unit() is called during device probing. I don't see anything special in init(8)'s code that would cause these VT devices to become initialized. I would assume that if one can open(2) them, then they should be available for ioctls?
