Here is a short summary of these routines.  Note that I speak only
for 4.[23]BSD, and for that matter, that I have never even read a
Unibus manual.  I have been forced to learn how the hardware works
by reading software.  (E.g., I still do not know exactly what a
buffered data path *does* and when one must be used.)
