these are the current section 9 pages, largely written by charles.
they pertain to all kernels

        allocb conf delay devattach dmainit error eve inb intrenable kbdputc
        kproc lib lock malloc monmwait newchan panic parsecmd qio qlock
        readnum ref seconds sleep splhi uartp8250 xalloc

these are the current section 9nix (an unfortuante distinction that is
hopefully temporary)

        adr panic physalloc qmalloc vmap

the current man pages can be accessed via, e.g.
