module is loaded or compiled into the kernel.
This is useful mostly in startup scripts, when module should be loaded only
if it wasn't compiled into the kernel nor already loaded, eg.:
kldstat -q -m g_eli || kldload geom_eli.ko || err 1 'geom_eli module failed to load.'
(not in mdoc(7) sense yet) in ifconfig(8) manpage, create such
subsections for gif(4) and vlan(4) so that their specific
options are not mixed up with general options.
- Add description for EEXIST.
- Change description for ENOBUFS. Routing socket can return
this error for many different reasons, including general
memory shortage, mbuf memory shortage and rtentry zone.

shutdown procedures (which have a duration of more than 120 seconds).
We have two user-space affecting shutdown timeouts: a "soft" one in
/etc/rc.shutdown and a "hard" one in init(8). The first one can be
configured via /etc/rc.conf variable "rcshutdown_timeout" and defaults
to 30 seconds. The second one was originally (in 1998) intended to be
configured via sysctl(8) variable "kern.shutdown_timeout" and defaults
to 120 seconds.
Unfortunately, the "kern.shutdown_timeout" was declared "unused" in 1999
(as it obviously is actually not used within the kernel itself) and
hence was intentionally but misleadingly removed in revision 1.107 from
init_main.c. Kernel sysctl(8) variables are certainly a wrong way to
control user-space processes in general, but in this particular case the
sysctl(8) variable should have remained as it supports init(8), which
isn't passed command line flags (which in turn could have been set via
/etc/rc.conf), etc.
As there is already a similar "kern.init_path" sysctl(8) variable which
directly affects init(8), resurrect the init(8) shutdown timeout under
sysctl(8) variable "kern.init_shutdown_timeout". But this time document
it as being intentionally unused within the kernel and used by init(8).
Also document it in the manpages init(8) and rc.conf(5).

state so another interface that connects to the same network has a
chance of working. This doesn't address attemping to connect to both at
once, but appears to allow unplugging from a wired interface and then
inserting a wireless card that associates with an AP bridged to the same
LAN.

labeled are selected in the same way as with the remove command.
Update the manpage to have the selection options described for the
label command and referenced to it from the remove command.
The label can be specified on the command line with the -l option
or read from a file with the -f option. In both cases, the label
is assumed to be encoded in UTF-8.

check the domain-name parameter according to the rules for "search"
strings as documented in resolv.conf(5). Specifically, the string must
be no more than 256 bytes long and contain no more than six valid domain
names separated by white space.
The previous unchecked values could result in a mangled resolv.conf
file which could effectively deny access to local sites. This is not
a security issue as rogue dhcp servers could already do this without
sending invalid strings.

to take into account the new default of starting the first partition
after the boot blocks instead of at sector 0. If you used automatic
sizing when the first partition did not start at 0, you would get
an error that the automatically sized partition extended beyond the
end of the disk.
Note that there are probably still many more complex cases where
automatic sizing and placement will not work (e.g. non-contiguous
or out of order partitions).
ignore "no such file" errors only, which I wanted to do.
Because of this I ignored all other errors on dlopen(3) failure as well,
which isn't good.
Fix this situation by calling access(2) on library file first and ignore
only ENOENT error. This allows to report all the rest of dlopen(3) errors.
