share/man/man9 Makefile sysctl_add_oid.9
sysctl_ctx_init.9
Added files: (Branch: RELENG_6)
share/man/man9 sysctl.9
Log:
Merge sysctl.9:1.1-1.3, Makefile:1.274, sysctl_add_oid.9:1.21,
sysctl_ctx_init.9 from HEAD to RELENG_6:
Add a basic man page for the sysctl(9) macro interfaces. Previously man
pages existed only for the dynamic sysctl interfaces. There's probably
more complete and accurate content, better advice, etc, that could be
added here.
Per scottl's suggest, add a small piece of moralizing text regarding the
fact that sysctl names quickly get embedded in system configuration files,
libraries, third party applications, and even books, so renaming and
removing names after they've been published is a tricky issue.
