017aaf79e1 Since sendfile(2) works on regular files only,
which have no negative offsets, "negative" and
"invalid" are equivalent WRT the offset argument.

186e347f2c Fixed a bug in sendfile(2) where the sent data would be corrupted due
to sendfile(2) being erroneously automatically restarted after a signal
is delivered. Fixed by converting ERESTART to EINTR prior to exiting.

Updated manual page to indicate the potential EINTR error, its cause
and consequences.

2faeeff4c9 mdoc(7) police: Tidy up the syscall language.
Stop calling system calls "function calls".

Use "The .Fn system call" a-la "The .Nm utility".

When referring to a non-BSD implementation in
the HISTORY section, call syscall a function,
to be safe.

c6ff3a1bf7 Remove single-space hard sentence breaks. These degrade the quality
of the typeset output, tend to make diffs harder to read and provide
bad examples for new-comers to mdoc.
