   sys/geom/eli         g_eli.c   Log:
 It is possible that GEOM taste provider before SMP is started.
 We can't bind to a CPU which is not yet on-line, so add code that wait for
 CPUs to go on-line before binding to them.

I thought tsleep() didn't work right before !cold.  Is that old knowledge?

Hmm, I thought that cold is zeroed before smp_started is set?


I don't think that's guaranteed. Besides, there's an easier way to fix your problem. Instead of calling kthread_create() from your geom create routine directly, queue a stub request on the thread taskqueue to call kthread_create().

For example, see sys/dev/acpica/acpi_acad.c. We call this from attach() and then the system thread only runs and then calls acpi_acad_init() once all CPUs are initialized. See sys/sys/taskqueue.h for how to add a task to the system thread taskqueue:

taskqueue_enqueue(taskqueue_thread, &task);
