+To implement syscalls, you need to provide ways to read and write data
+in user virtual address space.
 You need this ability before you can
 even obtain the system call number, because the system call number is
 on the user's stack in the user's virtual address space.
 This can be a bit tricky: what if the user provides an invalid
 pointer, a pointer into kernel memory, or a block
 partially in one of those regions?  You should handle these cases by
-terminating the user process.    We recommend
+terminating the user process.  We recommend
 writing and testing this code before implementing any other system
 call functionality.
