# 192896 27-May-2009 jamie

Add support for the arbitrary named jail parameters used by jail_set(2)
and jail_get(2). Jail(8) can now create jails using a "name=value"
format instead of just specifying a limited set of fixed parameters; it
can also modify parameters of existing jails. Jls(8) can display all
parameters of jails, or a specified set of parameters. The available
parameters are gathered from the kernel, and not hard-coded into these
programs.

Small patches on killall(1) and jexec(8) to support jail names with
jail_get(2).

# 173506 09-Nov-2007 ru

Fix a typo.


# 173504 09-Nov-2007 ru

- Fix documentation to match code. Specifically, -c doesn't have
to be specified together with either -u or -t to have an effect,
and exit status of 2 is not possible after a Perl->C conversion.

- While here, fix markup.


# 140368 17-Jan-2005 ru

Added the EXIT STATUS section where appropriate.


# 131491 02-Jul-2004 ru

Mechanically kill hard sentence breaks.

messages)

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
entire enclosed block.


# 79755 15-Jul-2001 dd

Remove whitespace at EOL.

Avoid use of direct troff requests in mdoc(7) manual pages.


# 65177 28-Aug-2000 peter

After positive feedback from a few folks, activate a switchover to
using killall.c instead of the perl version that depends on procfs.
The C version uses sysctl(). The program is based on a hack that was
originally written about 6 years ago and has evolved somewhat since then.
(which is why it is a superset of killall.pl, rather than being a clone.)

Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
