Description

Bring the dumpon(8) man page closer to reality:

  • dumpon utility has not used kern.dumpdev sysctl since rev. 1.14 (sbin/dumpon/dumpon.c) when phk@ updated it to use the DIOCSKERNELDUMP ioctl [1]
  • remove obsolete reference to sysctl(3)

While I am there, fix two style nits:

  • use .Nm instead of `dumpon'
  • change NOTES to IMPLEMENTATION NOTES, to bring it in line with recommended section headings in mdoc(7)
