I'm not fully reviewed yet though (write order and race), basically
looks like good.

It may not be linux coding style though, please add {}

	if () {
        	...
	}

for non one liner body.

There are some copy&paste codes, for example above, it may be better to
use function and consolidate? If you had some intent, it is ok though.

Thanks.
