67c8bc1bfb sysctl(3): Update description of various kern.* variables. 
Also add xrefs for confstr(3) (as sysconf(3) but for strings) and kvm(3)
(which is a more convenient way to access some of the variables).

62399df2c9 Add proper const keywords to sysctl(3) parameters. 
The `name' and `newp' arguments can be marked const, because the buffers
they refer to are never changed. While there, perform some other
cleanups:

- Remove K&R from sysctl.c.
- Implement sysctlbyname() using sysctlnametomib() to prevent
  duplication of an undocumented kernel interface.
- Fix some whitespace nits.

It seems the prototypes are now in sync with NetBSD as well.

99f6b270e3 Import OpenBSD's sysctl hardware sensors framework. 
This commit includes the following core components:

 * sample configuration file for sensorsd
 * rc(8) script and glue code for sensorsd(8)
 * sysctl(3) doc fixes for CTL_HW tree
 * sysctl(3) documentation for hardware sensors
 * sysctl(8) documentation for hardware sensors
 * support for the sensor structure for sysctl(8)
 * rc.conf(5) documentation for starting sensorsd(8)
 * sensor_attach(9) et al documentation
 * /sys/kern/kern_sensors.c
   o sensor_attach(9) API for drivers to register ksensors
   o sensor_task_register(9) API for the update task
   o sysctl(3) glue code
   o hw.sensors shadow tree for sysctl(8) internal magic
 * <sys/sensors.h>
 * HW_SENSORS definition for <sys/sysctl.h>
 * sensors display for systat(1), including documentation
 * sensorsd(8) and all applicable documentation

The userland part of the framework is entirely source-code
compatible with OpenBSD 4.1, 4.2 and  -current as of today.

All sensor readings can be viewed with `sysctl hw.sensors`,
monitored in semi-realtime with `systat -sensors` and also
logged with `sensorsd`.

c4d9468ea0 mdoc(7) police: 
Avoid using parenthesis enclosure macros (.Pq and .Po/.Pc) with plain text.
Not only this slows down the mdoc(7) processing significantly, but it also
has an undesired (in this case) effect of disabling hyphenation within the
