When 'fishing' for stuff in the kernel source code I find the tags
files kind of useful. In a kernel build directory (e.g. I usually
use src/sys/i386/compile/GENERIC on a 5.X machine, after config-ing
GENERIC) after doing a 'make depend' you can do 'make tags'. It
will usually fail once it starts to process the modules because it
can't find 'gtags' but by then it's already built what is most
useful.
Once the tags file is built in the kernel build directory you can
do something like:
vi -t connect
and it will start up vi with the cursor at the beginning of that
function. It's not perfect (sometimes it can't find a function)
but for the most part it works OK.
In this case it found connect() in /usr/src/sys/kern/uipc_syscalls.c
(I was using a RELENG_5 source tree).
