+.Nd compare byte string
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In sys/systm.h
+.Ft int
+.Fn bcmp "const void *b1" "const void *b2" "size_t len"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+.Bf -symbolic
+The
+.Fn bcmp
+interface is obsolete.
+Do not add new code using it.
+It will soon be purged.
+Use
+.Xr memcmp 9
+instead.
+(The
+.Fn bcmp
+function is now a macro for
+.Xr memcmp 9 . )
+.Ef
+.Pp
+The
+.Fn bcmp
+function
+compares byte string
+.Fa b1
+against byte string
+.Fa b2 ,
+returning zero if they are identical, non-zero otherwise.
+Both strings are assumed to be
+.Fa len
+bytes long.
+Zero-length strings are always identical.
+.Pp
+The strings may overlap.
