9530d06766 Unify cross-references between sigpending(2), sigprocmask(2),
and sigsuspend(2), all three of which operate or depend on the
process signal mask.

Add a missing xref to sigsetops(3), without which the above three
syscalls would be useless.

f1fe8d5bac Add clarifications about the information that ntp_gettime returns.
TAI is a timescale, just like UTC.  The tai field returns the offset
between the two, and isn't really used for precision time keeping.
Explain in brief what a positive and a negative leap seconds are.  Add
some URLs to very useful web pages about time and time keeping for
more information on using this API.

795b332691 ntp_adjtime returns the current state of the clock (TIME_*) on success
or -1 on failure.  The manual used to say it returned 0 or -1.  Both
examination of the kernel sources, and ntpd show that this is the case.

44f5ca2f16 Document the new explicit listing API for extended attributes; note
that the old API (passing "" as the attribute name to the _get_
interface) is now deprecated (and was probably a bad idea).

fd7a8150fb o In struct prison, add an allprison linked list of prisons (protected
by allprison_mtx), a unique prison/jail identifier field, two path
  fields (pr_path for reporting and pr_root vnode instance) to store
  the chroot() point of each jail.
o Add jail_attach(2) to allow a process to bind to an existing jail.
o Add change_root() to perform the chroot operation on a specified
  vnode.
o Generalize change_dir() to accept a vnode, and move namei() calls
  to callers of change_dir().
o Add a new sysctl (security.jail.list) which is a group of
  struct xprison instances that represent a snapshot of active jails.

bd5466d65a Document a bug in our chroot(2) implementation: if access control
checks, including the "open directory" check or a MAC check fail,
after the working directory of the process has been changed, then
the cwd of the process will be left as the target directory rather
than the original directory.

At some point, this bug might be fixable by performing the directory
change only after permission is granted for the change.  In the
mean time document it (it's been there for a while).
