dostartuphooks(void);
The dostartuphooks() function invokes all startup hooks established using
the startuphook_establish(9) function. Startup hooks are
called in order,
i.e., the startup hook established first will be called
first.
This function is called from main() with interrupts turned
on. It is
called immediately before the system configures its root and
swap devices,
but fully after all normal autoconfiguration. This
can be used to
let device subsystems needing delayed configuration (e.g.,
due to very
long initialization times) still provide the root device.
The I2O system,
implemented by the iop(4) and ioprbs(4) drivers, is a
good example.
Startup hooks are, like shutdown hooks, implemented via the
more general
dohooks(9) API.
