Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.
When -c is specified, the system will be power cycled if the
underlying hardware supports it. Otherwise the system will be halted
or rebooted depending on which command was used.

Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted
them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same
numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

Add -N flag to reboot(8) which bypasses the userland sync(2) during
reboot(8) while still allow the kernel sync during the reboot(2) syscall
to occur.
An example use of this is when rebooting with disconnected iSCSI sessions
which would otherwise cause the reboot to hang on BIOs that will never
complete.

the root filesystem without full reboot, using "reboot -r". This can
be used to to eg. boot from a temporary md_image preloaded by loader(8),
setup an iSCSI session, and continue booting from rootfs mounted over
iSCSI.

logwtmp() gets called with the raw strings that are written to disk. For
regular user entries, this isn't too bad, but when booting/shutting
down, the contents get rather cryptic.
Just call the standardized pututxline().
init(8), to avoid losing a race to them and dying before being able
to call reboot(2).

with -k option and never be used without kflag. This confuses
gcc because we set "kflag" at the same time with "kernel", but
the logic is not that apparant for gcc.
Since we can initialize "kernel" to NULL then know if "k" option
is set through determining whether it is still NULL, don't try
to have gcc to guess why we are connecting "kflag" with "kernel"
and use "kernel" directly in place of kflag.

doesn't have a process group, which can occur if you're working with
a custom init that doesn't set up a full tty context. Rather than
refusing to reboot, ignore ESRCH from the kill attempt in reboot(8).
'-p' is used on the reboot(8) command line.
This is intended for use when you want to attempt a power down
action, but you want the system to reboot (not halt) if the
power down action fails.
This is typically useful when the power-off action performed by
the kernel consists in signalling an uninterrupted power supply
that it should shut down its inverter if mains power has not returned.
The behaviour of shutdown(8) and init(8) is not modified;
only the behaviour of invoking 'reboot -p' manually is
modified, and then only in the case when a power-down action
fails.

around. If the kernel boots successfully, the record of this kernel
is erased, it is intended to be a one-shot option for testing
kernels.
This could be improved by having the loader remove the record of
the next kernel to boot, it is currently removed in /etc/rc immediately
after disks are mounted r/w.
I'd like to MFC this before the 4.6 freeze unless there is violent
objection.

processes and then sends SIGKILLs. If a lot of processes are swapped
out, this delay may not be long enough, so processes such as an X
server may be killed before they have had time to clean up properly.
Make this delay more dynamic by waiting up to 60 seconds for swap
page-in activity to end. While I'm here, ANSIfy and remove a
`register' specifier.
