Although groff_mdoc(7) gives another impression, this is the ordering
most widely used and also required by mdocml/mandoc.

msleep/mtx_sleep or the various cv_*wait*() routines. Currently, the
"unlock" behavior of PDROP and cv_wait_unlock() with Giant is not
permitted as it is will be confusing since Giant is fully unrecursed and
unlocked during a thread sleep.
This is handy for subsystems which wish to allow unlocked drivers to
continue to use Giant such as CAM, the new TTY layer, and the new USB
stack. CAM currently uses a hack that I told Scott to use because I
really didn't want to permit this behavior, and the TTY and USB patches
both have various patches to permit this.

event. Locking primitives that support this (mtx, rw, and sx) now each
include their own foo_sleep() routine.
- Rename msleep() to _sleep() and change it's 'struct mtx' object to a
'struct lock_object' pointer. _sleep() uses the recently added
lc_unlock() and lc_lock() function pointers for the lock class of the
specified lock to release the lock while the thread is suspended.
- Add wrappers around _sleep() for mutexes (mtx_sleep()), rw locks
(rw_sleep()), and sx locks (sx_sleep()). msleep() still exists and
is now identical to mtx_sleep(), but it is deprecated.
- Rename SLEEPQ_MSLEEP to SLEEPQ_SLEEP.
- Rewrite much of sleep.9 to not be msleep(9) centric.
- Flesh out the 'RETURN VALUES' section in sleep.9 and add an 'ERRORS'
section.
- Add __nonnull(1) to _sleep() and msleep_spin() so that the compiler will
warn if you try to pass a NULL wait channel. The functions already have
a KASSERT to that effect.
- the issues with wakeup_one are due to address space clashes between
unrelated groups of threads.
- sleep() was removed in FreeBSD 2.2.
- date the page today, not 4 days ago.
- replace grammatically correct "woken" with "woken up" for
consistency with the function name.
want an equivalent of DELAY(9) that sleeps instead of spins. It accepts
a wmesg and a timeout and is not interrupted by signals. It uses a private
wait channel that should never be woken up by wakeup(9) or wakeup_one(9).

- Describe msleep() as the primary sleep function now rather than tsleep()
and describe tsleep() and msleep_spin() as variations.
- Try to make the description of msleep() a bit closer to English
(sentences with actual subjects, etc.)
- Document that a priority of 0 now prevents the thread's priority from
being altered.
- Add a history note for wakeup_one().
function in years.
- Change the 'ident' paramters to 'wchan' to match <sys/systm.h>.
- Use 'otherwise' in place of 'else' in one place so that this reads like
English rather than C.
- Document the new msleep_spin() function.
- Add history notes for msleep() and msleep_spin().
Nuke incorrect usage of .Ar; replace it with .Vt, .Va or .Fa appropriately.

- Remove some bogus commas.
- Use the past tense when referring to the removal of the sleep() function
since it happened quite a while ago and since the previous sentence in the
paragraph already uses the past tense.

Avoid using parenthesis enclosure macros (.Pq and .Po/.Pc) with plain text.
Not only this slows down the mdoc(7) processing significantly, but it also
has an undesired (in this case) effect of disabling hyphenation within the
entire enclosed block.

BTW, what editors are the culprits? I'm using vim and it shows
me whitespace at EOL in troff files with a thick blue block...
