43 | .Sh DESCRIPTION | |
44 | .Nm Kvm_mkdb | |
45 | creates a database in | |

15637ed4 RG |
49 | and |
50 | perhaps other fairly static information about the current system. | |
51 | Various library routines consult this database. | |

53 | used by the | |
54 | .Xr kvm_nlist 3 | |
55 | function. | |
