From 731aa7b009184ad5b063701eeb583d634a370ed6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: julian Date: Tue, 26 May 2015 03:58:18 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] MFH: r283114 Fixup to the kern_psignal manpage r283105 misspelled kern_psignal as kernel_psignal in one occurrence, and added trailing whitespace. While here, change 'call' to the more standard 'function', and say why the name was changed (taken from the commit message for r225617). git-svn-id: svn://svn.freebsd.org/base/stable/10@283554 ccf9f872-aa2e-dd11-9fc8-001c23d0bc1f --- share/man/man9/psignal.9 | 11 ++++++----- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/share/man/man9/psignal.9 b/share/man/man9/psignal.9 index 5ca76f80b..aa170322e 100644 --- a/share/man/man9/psignal.9 +++ b/share/man/man9/psignal.9 @@ -63,10 +63,11 @@ function posts signal number to the process represented by the process structure .Fa p .
