e.g., by trimming all non-alphabet characters and whitespace,

N letters (maybe only consonants). The fortune editor then
displays all fortunes that have the same hash, and allows to
remove one of them. The rest is written to stdout.
duplicating the contents of the same functions inline.
- Consolidate common code to convert a BSD statfs struct to a Linux struct
into a static worker function.
structure in the struct pointed to by the 3rd argument for IPC_STAT and
get rid of the 4th argument. The old way returned a pointer into the
kernel array that the calling function would then access afterwards
without holding the appropriate locks and doing non-lock-safe things like
copyout() with the data anyways. This change removes that unsafeness and
resulting race conditions as well as simplifying the interface.
- Implement kern_foo wrappers for stat(), lstat(), fstat(), statfs(),
fstatfs(), and fhstatfs(). Use these wrappers to cut out a lot of
code duplication for freebsd4 and netbsd compatability system calls.
- Add a new lookup function kern_alternate_path() that looks up a filename
under an alternate prefix and determines which filename should be used.
This is basically a more general version of linux_emul_convpath() that
can be shared by all the ABIs thus allowing for further reduction of
code duplication.
reboot. Safter the reboot the TCC is usually in the Automatic mode, in which
reading current performance level is likely to produce bogus results make sure
to switch it to the On-Demand mode and set to some known performance level.
Unfortunately there is no reliable way to check that TCC is in the Automatic
mode. Reading bit 4 of ACPI Thermal Monitor Control Register produces 0
regardless of the current mode.

- .PATH: is spelled ``.PATH: ''
- Don't forget to use DPADD so ``make checkdpadd'' is
not broken.
- LDADD should not come with + as it's empty in the
first place

callout is first initialised, using a new function callout_init_mtx().
The callout system will acquire this mutex before calling the callout
function and release it on return.
In addition, the callout system uses the mutex to avoid most of the
complications and race conditions inherent in asynchronous timer
facilities, so mutex-protected callouts have much simpler semantics.
As long as the mutex is held when invoking callout_stop() or
callout_reset(), then these functions will guarantee that the callout
will be stopped, even if softclock() had already begun to process
the callout.
Existing Giant-locked callouts will automatically pick up the new
race-free semantics. This should close a number of race conditions
in the USB code and probably other areas of the kernel too.
There should be no change in behaviour for "MP-safe" callouts; these
still need to use the techniques mentioned in timeout(9) to avoid
race conditions.
