9e09a91233 Clarify boot.8 (i386 version) a bit, so that people know
where boot.config needs to reside.  Also change /kernel
to /boot/loader, as that is the apparent default now.  This
man page probably requires more updates.

6ab0d6c220 When kill(-1) returns ESRCH, it could be because the current process
doesn't have a process group, which can occur if you're working with
a custom init that doesn't set up a full tty context.  Rather than
refusing to reboot, ignore ESRCH from the kill attempt in reboot(8).

2aeb6b2708 Document behaviour change in reboot(8) introduced in reboot.c rev. 1.17:
when using '-p' with reboot, and the power down action failds, reboot
the system normally. The behaviour of 'halt -p' and of shutdown(8) is
unchanged.

cfde77fbdf Set only the RB_POWEROFF flag (not the RB_HALT flag) when
'-p' is used on the reboot(8) command line.

This is intended for use when you want to attempt a power down
action, but you want the system to reboot (not halt) if the
power down action fails.

This is typically useful when the power-off action performed by
the kernel consists in signalling an uninterrupted power supply
that it should shut down its inverter if mains power has not returned.

The behaviour of shutdown(8) and init(8) is not modified;
only the behaviour of invoking 'reboot -p' manually is
modified, and then only in the case when a power-down action
fails.

1de372dcd4 Add a -k option to reboot to specify the kernel to boot next time
around.  If the kernel boots successfully, the record of this kernel
is erased, it is intended to be a one-shot option for testing
kernels.

This could be improved by having the loader remove the record of
the next kernel to boot, it is currently removed in /etc/rc immediately
after disks are mounted r/w.

I'd like to MFC this before the 4.6 freeze unless there is violent
objection.

28703190c5 Add new boot flag to i386 boot: -p.
This flag adds a pausing utility. When ran with -p, during the kernel
probing phase, the kernel will pause after each line of output.
This pausing can be ended with the '.' key, and is automatically
suspended when entering ddb.

This flag comes in handy at systems without a serial port that either hang
during booting or reser.

85ae580ccb Reboot(8) normally waits 5 seconds after sending SIGTERMs to all
processes and then sends SIGKILLs. If a lot of processes are swapped
out, this delay may not be long enough, so processes such as an X
server may be killed before they have had time to clean up properly.

Make this delay more dynamic by waiting up to 60 seconds for swap
page-in activity to end. While I'm here, ANSIfy and remove a
`register' specifier.
