 1.1  15-Apr-2017  kamil Add new documentation locking(9)

It's a document from June 2015.

DESCRIPTION
The NetBSD kernel provides several synchronization and interrupt control
primitives. This manpage aims at giving an overview of these interfaces
and their proper application. This document includes also basic kernel
thread control primitives and rough overview of the NetBSD kernel design.

Part of interfaces are missing, like new mechanisms for networking SMP,
as this documentation page predates them.
