i think this is probably correct. but i also think that text should be
in commas:
The segment flag, which defines ..., is specified by segflg.
there's another text segment that i suspect should be singular:
FUNCTIONS
namei(ndp)
Convert a pathname into a pointer to a vnode. The
pathname is specified by ndp->ni_dirp and is of
length ndp->ni_pathlen. The ndp->segflg flags
defines whether the name in ndp->ni_dirp is an
address in kernel space (UIO_SYSSPACE) or an
address in user space (UIO_USERSPACE).
i suspect it should read "The ndp->segflg flag defines".
