Augustin Cavalier 498bd544a4 freebsd11_network: Fix race condition leading to lock of deleted mutex. * Initialize "status" to B_NO_INIT, which will skip the main 'if' the first go-around and go straight to the acquire_sem_etc(), as we will have be invoked from the callout initializer, and so there will of course be no callouts. * Actually check the return code of mutex_lock, and do another loop iteration (which skips this main 'if' as status will not be one of those things.) * Correct failure deinitialization order in init_callout(). * Destroy the mutex after the worker thread exits (this is the real fix.) Fixes #14660, and other "hang on cursor" / "hang on black screen" / or possibly even a "hang on rocket" introduced in yesterday's builds.		2018-10-29 00:53:42 -04:00

Haiku

Homepage | Mailing Lists | IRC Channels | Issue Tracker | API docs

Haiku is an open-source operating system that specifically targets personal computing. Inspired by the BeOS, Haiku is fast, simple to use, easy to learn and yet very powerful.

Goals

Sensible defaults with minimal configuration required.
Clean, clear, concise code.
Unified desktop environment.

Trying Haiku

Haiku provides pre-built nightly images and release images. Haiku is compatible with a large variety of hardware, but in case you don't want to "take the plunge" and install Haiku on bare metal, you can install it on a virtual machine (VM) instead. If you've never used a VM before, you can follow one of the "Emulating Haiku" guides.

Compiling Haiku

See ReadMe.Compiling.

Contributing

Haiku is a meritocratic open source project with a large variety of tasks. Even if you can't write code, you can still help! Haiku needs designers, (technical) writers, translators, testers... Get involved and help out!
