While looking at this code a question emerged: is mod_register() called before or after forking the subprocesses? (I hope the answer is after)

before forking (when the module is loaded), why do you hope is after?

I may misunderstand the concept of shared memory on forking, but isn't the allocated buffer shared among all forked processes then? Without any locking, funny things are going to happen.
