cf15cbb1b6 - Add two new system calls: preadv() and pwritev() which are like readv() 
and writev() except that they take an additional offset argument and do
  not change the current file position.  In SAT speak:
  preadv:readv::pread:read and pwritev:writev::pwrite:write.
- Try to reduce code duplication some by merging most of the old
  kern_foov() and dofilefoo() functions into new dofilefoo() functions
  that are called by kern_foov() and kern_pfoov().  The non-v functions
  now all generate a simple uio on the stack from the passed in arguments
  and then call kern_foov().  For example, read() now just builds a uio and
  calls kern_readv() and pwrite() just builds a uio and calls kern_pwritev().

3cb7a30757 Explain it is a negative offset that EINVAL may indicate. 
Now readers won't get an impression that pointing to beyond
the current end of file will result in EINVAL.

See e.g. nfsclient/nfs_vnops.c

static int
nfs_read(struct vop_read_args *ap)

        struct vnode *vp = ap->a_vp;

        if (vp->v_type != VREG)

        return (nfs_bioread(vp, ap->a_uio, ap->a_ioflag, ap->a_cred));

a4b155d7a2 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.

f7a8bc4c04 Add $Id$, to make it simpler for members of the translation teams to 
track.

The $Id$ line is normally at the bottom of the main comment block in the
man page, separated from the rest of the manpage by an empty comment,
like so;

     .\"    $Id$
     .\"

If the immediately preceding comment is a @(#) format ID marker than the
the $Id$ will line up underneath it with no intervening blank lines.
Otherwise, an additional blank line is inserted.

5e0b8a5234 Correctly use .Fn instead of .Nm to reference function names

instead of explicitly specifying the version in the text
in a bunch of man pages.
