Bug ID: 288728
Summary: kern.ipc.nsfbufs called a sysctl var in tuning(7) but
is a loader tunable
Product: Documentation
Version: Latest
Hardware: Any

Hello all,
In FreeBSD 14-STABLE of 30 July 2025 in the tuning(7) manpage kern.ipc.nsfbufs
is referred to as a sysctl variable but the sysctl doesn't exist.
In the sendfile(2) manpage it is referred to as a loader.conf variable and
kern.ipc.nsfbufs is indeed mentioned in /boot/defaults/loader.conf on line 167.
Its type is implied also by its presence in the loader_simp(8) manpage.
I suggest altering /usr/share/man/man7/tuning.7 (line 599/600), replacing
"kern.ipc.nsfbufs sysctl" with "kern.ipc.nsfbufs loader tunable".
Thanks,
--MCV.
