share/man/man9 : tc_init.9
Log message:
tc_init.9: miscellaneous cleanup and rewrites
- In DESCRIPTION, try to more fully describe what kern_tc.c does.
Clean up the wording.
- Mention *all* the requirements for timekeeping hardware. Describe
the rollover margin in plainer language.
- Revise field descriptions for struct timecounter. Don't mention
fields the driver doesn't need to initialize. Document the tc_user
field.
- Add a CONTEXT section.
- In SEE ALSO, switch to an https URI on the main freebsd.org website.
- In HISTORY, note that the timecounting code first reached end users
in FreeBSD 3.0. This commit is probably the first one:
"Replace TOD clock code with more systematic approach."

With input from Poul-Henning Kamp.
