Author: bjk (doc committer) Date: Tue May 19 15:43:20 2015 New Revision: 283114 URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/283114 Log: 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).
