+.Sh NAME
+.Nm kenv
+.Nd dump or modify the kernel environment
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Nm
+.Op Fl hNq
+.Nm
+.Op Fl qv
+.Ar variable Ns Op = Ns Ar value
+.Nm
+.Op Fl q
+.Fl u
+.Ar variable
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+utility will dump the kernel environment if
+invoked without arguments.
+If the
+.Fl h
+option is specified, it will limit the report to kernel probe hints.
+If an optional
+.Ar variable
+name is specified,
+.Nm
+will only report that value.
+If the
+.Fl N
+option is specified,
+.Nm
+will only display variable names and not their values.
+If the
+.Fl u
+option is specified,
+.Nm
+will delete the given environment variable.
+If the environment variable is followed by an optional
+.Ar value ,
+.Nm
+will set the environment variable to this value.
+.Pp
+If the
+.Fl q
+option is set, warnings normally printed as a result of being unable to
+perform the requested operation will be suppressed.
+.Pp
+If the
+.Fl v
+option is set, the variable name will be printed out for the
+environment variable in addition to the value when
+.Nm
+is executed with a variable name.
+.Pp
+Variables can be added to the kernel environment using the
+.Pa /boot/loader.conf
+file, or also statically compiled into the kernel using the statement
+.Pp
+.Dl Ic env Ar filename
+.Pp
+in the kernel config file.
+The file can contain lines of the form
+.Pp
+.Dl name = "value"  # this is a comment
+.Pp
+where whitespace around name and '=', and
+everything after a '#' character, are ignored.  Almost any printable
+character except '=' is acceptable as part of a name.  Quotes
+are optional and necessary only if the value contains
+whitespace.
