+.Os Hyra
+.Sh NAME
+.Nm dynalloc - hyra kernel dynamic memory allocation
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In vm/dynalloc.h
+
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+This subsystem is an abstraction over the Two-Level Segregated
+Fit memory allocator and provides wrappers for allocating, reallocating
+and deallocating memory from a pool allocated per-core.
+
+The
+.Ft dynalloc()
+function is analogous to malloc() in other systems.
+
+The
+.Ft dynalloc_memalign()
+function allows you to allocate aligned memory
+
+The
+.Ft dynrealloc()
+function is analogous to realloc() in other systems.
+
+The
+.Ft dynfree()
+function is analogous to free() in other systems.

+.Dt TIMER 9
+.Os Hyra
+.Sh NAME
+.Nm timer - hyra timer abstraction
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In sys/timer.h
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The timer registry abstraction allows timers on the machine
+to be registered as a generic timer type allowing other parts
+of the kernel to request a timer of that type e.g scheduler reserved
+timers (TIMER_SCHED). All timers within the system are represented via
+a timer descriptor which is simply the
+.Ft timer
+struct.
+
+The timer struct pointer fields are optional and must
+be
+.Ft NULL
+if unused. Therefore it is the requesting kernel module's responsibility to verify
+a field is not unused before using it for obvious reasons.
+
+However, it is highly recommended to set the
+.Ft name
+field. This field on an HPET timer could be, for example:
+.Ft HIGH_PRECISION_EVENT_TIMER
+
