+flag is not set in
+.Fa howto ,
+syncs and unmounts the system disks by calling
+.Xr vfs_unmountall 9 .
+.It
+Disables interrupts.
+.It
+If rebooting after a crash (i.e., if
+.Dv RB_DUMP
+is set in
+.Fa howto ,
+but
+.Dv RB_HALT
+is not), saves a system crash dump.
+.It
+Runs any shutdown hooks previously registered.
+.It
+Prints a message indicating that the system is about to be halted
+or rebooted.
+.It
+If
+.Dv RB_HALT
+is set in
+.Fa howto ,
