If in the first state, threads will try to run the initialization by moving to the second state; the first thread to do so via a CAS on once_control runs init_routine, other threads block. When forking the process, some threads can be interrupted during the second state; they won't be present in the forked child, so we need to restart initialization in the child. To distinguish an in-progress initialization from an interrupted initialization (in which case we need to reclaim the lock), we look at the fork generation that's part of the second state: We can reclaim iff it differs from the current fork generation. XXX: This algorithm has an ABA issue on the fork generation: If an initialization is interrupted, we then fork 2^30 times (30 bits of once_control are used for the fork generation), and try to initialize again, we can deadlock because we can't distinguish the in-progress and interrupted cases anymore.
