New Revision: 355500
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/355500

Log:
  Only return EPERM from kill(-pid) when no process was signalled.
  
  As mandated by POSIX.  Also clarify the kill(2) manpage.
  
  While there, restructure the code in killpg1() to use helper which
  keeps overall state of the process list iteration in the killpg1_ctx
  structued, later used to infer the error returned.
