- improve wording;
- remove unneeded macros (fixes mandoc(1) warnings);
- in the `EXAMPLES' section, for `-d', mention the use of `-U'
besides that of `-u' (as the former is a variant on the latter).

dynamically loaded module (.so) supplementing npfctl(8) and a kernel
module. Move normalisation and logging functionality into their own
extensions. More improvements to come.
Reported by Ed Schouten <ed@FreeBSD.org> to tech-userlevel.
Adapt license to match FreeBSD's version, leaving Ed out
since according to CVS logs, he didn't touch NetBSD's version.
Print only fatal error messages (i.e., when the database is left in
an inconsistent state and needs manual intervention).

Contrary to the AMD implementation, it doesn't use xcalls to distribute
the update to all CPUs but relies on cpuctl(8) to bind itself to the
right CPU -- to keep it simple and avoid possible problems with
hyperthreading.
Also, it doesn't parse the vendor supplied file to pick the right
part for the present CPU model but relies on userland to prepare
files with specific filenames. I'll commit a pkg for this in a minute
(pkgsrc/sysutils/intel-microcode).
The ioctl interface changed; compatibility is provided (should be
limited to COMPAT_NETBSD6 as soon as this is available).
That uses devname(3) internally, which doesn't work at all in a cross
build environment, and doesn't do what I thought even in a native
environment.
Instead, parse the device major numbers for the pty master and slave
devices from the output of "MAKEDEV -s pty0" and check those against the
actual device node that we are thinking of removing.
a device node of the correct type. We no longer need to get the
major number from searching the MAKEDEV script, because the output
from stat(1) will contain the strings "tty" or "pty" instead of
the numeric major numbers. We also no longer rely on "find -ls".
The format is somewhat different; I'm operating under the assumption
that nobody has automated editing scripts for the old format because
it's much easier just to use the command-line interface of
edquota. The new format is more scalable and more parseable.
Also, do a better job of diagnosing editing errors, and don't blindly
erase all quota information for the user being edited when a parse
error occurs after editing.
