* Add .Vt in the right places, transform some .Fa to .Vt, depending
    on discussion context.

  * When refering to the function malloc(), use .Fn, and not .Xr.

  * Add `The' to prefix a sentence when describing a function, so
    it results in ``The xxx() function..."

  * Use `system call' instead of `syscall'.

  * Improve the sentence which discusses accept_filt_generic_mod_event();
    Talk about moduledata_t, and refer to the DECLARE_MODULE(9) manual
    page.

  * Properly markup .An (Author Name) throughout the AUTHORS section.

A module that wants to be an accept filter

The callback that the kernel will do

It is the same as a socket upcall

and whenever new data arrives on the socket,
unless the callback modifies the socket's flags.
