 .Sh NAME
 .Nm cpu_need_resched
 .Nd context switch notification
 .Sh SYNOPSIS
-.In sys/proc.h
+.In sys/cpu.h
 .Ft void
-.Fn cpu_need_resched "struct cpu_info *ci"
+.Fn cpu_need_resched "struct cpu_info *ci" "int flags"
 .Sh DESCRIPTION
 The
 .Fn cpu_need_resched
 function is the machine-independent interface for the scheduler to
 notify machine-dependent code that a context switch from the current
-LWP is required.
+LWP, on the cpu
+.Fa ci ,
+is required.
 This event may occur if a higher priority LWP appears on the run
 queue or if the current LWP has exceeded its time slice.
+.Pp
+If
+.Dv
+RESCHED_IMMED
+flag is specified in
+.Fa flags ,
+machine-dependent code should make a context switch happen as soon as possible.
+In that case, for example, if
+.Fa ci
+is not the current processor,
+.Fn cpu_need_resched
+typically issues an inter processor call to the processor to make it
+notice the need of a context switch as soon as possible.
 .Sh EXAMPLES
 Specifically, the
