managed from userspace. It is largely a wrapper for sysctl()
calls, but because the sysctls for adding and removing scripts
are awkward to use directly, this provides an easier-to-use
interface.

Implement -E option which will erase the filesystem sectors before
making the new filesystem. Reserved space in front of the superblock
(bootcode) is not erased.
NB: Erasing can take as long time as writing every sector sequentially.
This is relevant for all flash based disks which use wearlevelling.

been specified, a default layout is used).

Minor modifications by me.
return -1 on error while any other return value from it can
indicate success. (See RETURN VALUE in our ioctl(2) manpage
and the POSIX spec.)
- Avoid assumptions about the state of the data buffer after
ioctl(2) failure.
Add a new option to newfs(8), -r, to specify reserved space at the
end of the device. It can be useful, e.g., when the device is to
become a member of a gmirror array later w/o losing the file system
on it.
Document the new option in the manpage.
While I'm here, improve error handling for -s option, which is
syntactically similar to -r; and document the fact that -s0 selects
the default fs size explicitly, which can be useful, e.g., in a
menu-based wrapper around newfs(8) requiring some value be entered
for the fs size.
Also fix a small typo in the help line for -s (missing space).

- refer to the dummynet(4) man page only once, later use rather
the .Nm macro.
- use .Va macro when refering to the sysctl variables
- grammar and markup fixes

If it is set to zero value (default) dummynet module will try to emulate
real link as close as possible (bandwidth & latency): packet will not leave
pipe faster than it should be on real link with given bandwidth.
(This is original behaviour of dummynet which was altered in previous commit)
If it is set to non-zero value only bandwidth is enforced: packet's latency
can be lower comparing to real link with given bandwidth.
- Document recently introduced dummynet(4) sysctl variables.

dropped until an existing host cache entry expires or is removed. Useful to
use with the STICKY cache option.
