Apologies if I missed anyone!
+New and rewritten pages
+-----------------------
-Newly documented interfaces in existing pages
----------------------------------------------
-
-ioctl_list.2
- Zsbán Ambrus
- Document FAT_IOCTL_GET_ATTRIBUTES
- The attached patch adds four ioctls from linux/msdos_fs.h to the
- ioctl_list(2) manpage.
+localedef.1
+ Marko Myllynen [Richard Braakman, Alastair McKinstry, Lars Wirzenius]
+ New page for localedef(1)
+ Add new page based on Debian localedef(1) page.
- The ioctl FAT_IOCTL_GET_ATTRIBUTES reads FAT attributes of a
- file a mounted vfat file system. I tested this on Linux
- 2.6.33, an example script can be found at
- http://www.perlmonks.com/?node_id=832623
+New and changed links
+---------------------
-Global changes
---------------
-
-Various pages
- Michael Kerrisk
- Global fix: s/file system/filesystem/
- Notwithstanding 24d01c530c5a3f75217543d02bf6712395e5f90c,
- "filesystem" is the form used by the great majority of man pages
- outside the man-pages project and in a number of other sources,
- so let's go with that.
+procfs.5
+ New link to proc.5
+ Since the term "procfs" is widely used, it seems reasonable to have
+ a link from that name to proc(5).
Changes to individual pages
---------------------------
-access.2
- J. Bruce Fields
- Fix outdated NFS information
- Note that NFS versions since version 3 support an "access" call
- so that the client doesn't have to guess permissions or ID
- mapping on its own.
+locale.1
+ Marko Myllynen
+ Provide a step-by-step example of how to use a custom locale
+ Marko Myllynen
+ Use LC_TELEPHONE instead of LC_MESSAGES in the example
+ yesstr/nostr in LC_MESSAGES are planned to be changed at some
+ point [1], so it's better to provide an example which won't
+ be obsoleted by that change.
- (See RFC 1813 sections 1.7 and 3.3.4.)
+ [1] https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16975
adjtimex.2
Michael Kerrisk
- SEE ALSO: Add adjtimex(8)
-
-clock_getres.2
- Michael Kerrisk [Rodrigo Campos]
- Note circumstances in which "SMP" note applies.
- Michael Kerrisk
- Add kernel version for CLOCK_*_CPUTIME_ID
- CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID and CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_ID
- appeared in 2.6.12.
- Michael Kerrisk
- Add VERSIONS section
-
-futex.2
- Michael Kerrisk
- The 'timeout' can be rounded upwards by clock granularity and also overrun
-
-kill.2
- Michael Kerrisk
- Small improvements to text on historical rules for permissions
+ Add featute test macro requirements
-nfsservctl.2
+clone.2
Michael Kerrisk
- Note commands that were only in Linux 2.4.x and earlier
-
-open.2
- Robert Harris
- Add mmap(2) to list of calls that fail when given an O_PATH descriptor
- Doug Goldstein
- Add EINVAL to errors list
- EINVAL can be returned by open(2) when the underlying filesystem
- doesn't support O_DIRECT. It is documented in the NOTES section
- but this patch adds it to the list of possible errors.
-
-perf_event_open.2
- Vince Weaver
- PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK updates
- This started out as just adding the new perf_event_open features
- from Linux 3.11 (which was the addition of transactional memory
- defines for PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK samples) but turned into a
- general cleanup of the PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK documentation.
-
- The main clarification is that at least one of the non-privilege
- values must be set or else perf_event_open() will return an EINVAL
- error.
- Michael Kerrisk
- Reorder text describing fields of 'perf_event_header' structure
- Place the fields with the shorter descriptions first, to make the
- information easier to read.
-
-poll.2
- Michael Kerrisk
- Clarify wording of 'timeout' as a "minimum" interval
+ ERRORS: add cross-reference to fork(2) for explanation of EAGAIN
-sched_setaffinity.2
- Michael Kerrisk [Christos Tsopokis]
- Clarify that these system calls affect a per-thread attribute
-
-sched_setparam.2
+fork.2
Michael Kerrisk
- Clarify that this system call applies to threads (not processes)
+ ERRORS: add pid_max and threads-max to EAGAIN
+ And rewrite text to be the same as pthread_create(3).
-sched_setscheduler.2
+getrlimit.2
Michael Kerrisk
- Clarify that this system call applies to threads (not processes)
-
-select.2
- Michael Kerrisk [G.raud]
- Clarify wording of 'timeout' as a "minimum" interval
-
-setfsgid.2
- Michael Kerrisk [Oleg Nesterov]
- Clarify description of return value
- More clearly describe the weirdness in the return value of this
- system call, and note the problems it creates in in BUGS
+ RLIMIT_NPROC is not enforced if CAP_SYS_ADMIN or CAP_SYS_RESOURCE
+
+remap_file_pages.2
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Fix prototype
+ The pgoff argument has type size_t, not ssize_t (and in the
+ kernel it is unsigned long).
+
+set_mempolicy.2
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Fix prototype for set_mempolicy(2)
+ The nodemask argument is const. The return type in numaif.h is long.
+
+swapon.2
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Remove header from synopsis
+ The <asm/page.h> header is not readily available, and the comment
+ seems to indicate that it is for getting PAGE_SIZE. But it is
+ never mentioned why one would need to know that, and it is in any
+ case better obtained using sysconf(), provided by <unistd.h>.
+
+a64l.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Fix prototype for a64l()
+ The argument is const, both according to POSIX and the
+ glibc headers.
+
+adjtime.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Add required header
+ The prototype for adjtime(3) is declared in <sys/time.h>.
+
+argz_add.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Fix prototypes
+ Update the prototypes of argz_{delete,extract,next} to agree with
+ glibc headers and manual.
+
+bstring.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Fix prototypes
+ The length parameter n has type size_t in bcmp(), bcopy() and
+ bzero().
+
+envz_add.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Fix prototypes
+ The envz_len parameters for envz_entry() and envz_get() are not
+ passed by reference.
+
+fpathconf.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Fix prototype
+ The path argument to pathconf() is const.
+
+fseek.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Fix prototype
+ The pos argument to fsetpos() is const.
+
+gcvt.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Fix prototype
+ The ndigit paramenter to gcvt() has type int.
+
+getaddrinfo_a.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Fix prototype
+ The pointer arguments to gai_suspend() are const.
+
+getauxval.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Fix permissions
+ There doesn't seem to be any reason for getauxval.3 to be
+ executable...
+
+getnameinfo.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Fix prototype
+ The hostlen and servlen parameters have type socklet_t.
+ (The types changed in glibc 2.2)
Michael Kerrisk
- Correct header file in SYNOPSIS
+ Note types of 'hostlen'; and 'servlen' in glibc < 2.2
+
+getrpcent.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Fix prototype
+ The argument to getrpcbyname() is const.
+
+getrpcport.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Add #include and fix prototype
+ The prototype for getrpcport() is obtained by #include'ing
+ <rpc/rpc.h>. Also, update its prototype.
+
+getspnam.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Fix prototype
+ The struct spwd argument to putspent() is const.
+
+getutent.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Fix prototypes
+ The arguments to getutid(), getutline(), and pututline()
+ are const.
+
+inet.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Fix prototype
+ The parameters to inet_makeaddr have type in_addr_t.
+
+inet_net_pton.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ srcfix, cfix
+ Use a consistent style throughout the man-pages.
+
+key_setsecret.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Fix prototypes
+ Remove const qualifiers from arguments to key_decryptsession,
+ key_encryptsession, and key_setsecret.
+
+makecontext.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Fix prototype
+ The second argument to swapcontext() is const.
+
+makedev.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Fix prototype
+ gnu_dev_makedev, and hence its trivial macro wrapper makedev, takes
+ two unsigned int parameters; this is consistent with it being the
+ inverse of (gnu_dev_)major/minor, which return unsigned int.
+
+malloc_trim.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Fix prototype
+ As mentioned further down, malloc_trim returns an integer.
+
+mq_getattr.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Fix prototype
+ The newattr parameter to mq_setattr is const.
+
+newlocale.3
+ Marko Myllynen
+ List all available category masks

+ hence not const.
+
+pthread_setschedparam.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes

+
+pthread_setschedprio.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes

+ re_comp and re_exec take const char* arguments.
+
+resolver.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Fix prototypes and extern-declaration
+ Fix const- and signedness of various char* parameters.
+
+ Also, there is no "struct state", but _res is a struct
+ __res_state. (Actually, _res is errno-like in that it is really a
+ macro expanding to (*__res_state()).)
+
+rexec.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Fix prototypes
+ The user, passwd and cmd arguments to rexec and rexec_af are all
+ const.
+
+rtime.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes

+
+scandir.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Fix prototypes
+ The alphasort and versionsort functions take arguments of type
+ const struct dirent **, not const void *.
+
+setlocale.3
+ Michael Kerrisk [Marko Myllynen]
+ Simplify locale category listing and add GNU-specific locale categories
+ Some information that was here will move to locale(7).
+ Marko Myllynen
+ Remove now obsolete NOTES section
+
+setnetgrent.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Fix prototype
+ The buflen argument to getnetgrent_r has type size_t.
+
+sigvec.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Fix prototype
+ The vec argument to sigvec is const.
+
+tsearch.3
+ Rasmus Villemoes
+ Fix prototype
+ The rootp argument to tfind is "void * const *",

+ Michael Kerrisk [Marko Myllynen]
+ Add brief descriptions of collating-element and collating-symbol
+ Marko Myllynen
+ t_fmt_ampm is needed only for locales that employ AM/PM convention
+ Michael Kerrisk [Marko Myllynen]
+ Remove crufty reference to /usr/lib/nls/src
+ That file is nowhere to be found
+ Marko Myllynen
+ Clarify LC_TIME/am_pm and LC_NAME keywords usage
+ am_pm should be defined only if AM/PM convention is used to signal
+ applications they should not try to print them when using them in
+ unwanted.
+
+ Same for all LC_NAME keywords expect for name_fmt which should be
+ always defined.
+ Marko Myllynen
+ Clarify lang_term / lang_lib
+ As noted by Keld Simonsen in the lib-locales@sourceware mailing
+ list:
+
+ https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-locales/2014-q2/msg00008.html
+ From: Keld Simonsen <keld at rap dot rap dot dk>
+ To: Marko Myllynen <myllynen at redhat dot com>
+ Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2014 17:02:09 +0200
+
+ lang_term reflects ISO 639-2/T (terminology) codes, while
+ lang_lib reflects ISO 639-2/B (bibliographic) codes.
+ lang_term is preferred over lang_lib codes for locale names.
+ There are 20 specific ISO 639-2/B codes.
+ Marko Myllynen
+ Correct the FILES section
-telldir.3
- Peng Haitao
- ATTRIBUTES: Note function that is thread-safe
- The function telldir() is thread safe.
+proc.5
+ Michael Kerrisk
+ 'pid_max' is a system-wide limit on number of threads and processes
+ Since PIDs > /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max are not allocated, this
+ file thus also imposes a system-wide limit on the number of
+ threads and processes.
-wctomb.3
- Peng Haitao
- ATTRIBUTES: Note function that is not thread-safe
- The function wctomb() is not thread safe.
-
-wavelan.4

+capabilities.7
+ Michael Kerrisk
+ CAP_SYS_ADMIN allows overriding RLIMIT_NPROC
+ Michael Kerrisk
+ CAP_SYS_PTRACE allows process_vm_readv(2) and process_vm_writev(2)
-proc.5
- Peter Schiffer
- Document /proc/[pid]/io file
- Attempt to document fields in the /proc/[pid]/io file, based on
- the Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt. The text will probably
- need some grammar corrections.
+charsets.7
Michael Kerrisk [Marko Myllynen]
- /proc/sys/fs/inode-max went away in Linux 2.4
- Also, the 'preshrink' field in /proc/sys/fs/inode-state became
- a dummy value in Linux 2.4.
-
- See https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60836
- Michael Kerrisk [A. Costa]
- Note block size used by /proc/partitions
- See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=666972
+ Remove crufty statement that Romanian may be switching to ISO 8859-16
Michael Kerrisk
- Add rationale on drop_caches and note that it can hurt performance
- See also http://lwn.net/Articles/562211/
+ Remove ancient paragraph on charsets supported in glibc 2.3.2
+ That test is rather ancient, and probably of little use.
-bootparam.7
- Michael Kerrisk [Eugen Dedu]
- Remove "lilo" entries from SEE ALSO

+fanotify.7
+ Heinrich Schuchardt

inotify.7
+ Heinrich Schuchardt
+ Add example program
+ This example of the usage of the inotify API shows the
+ usage of inotify_init1(2) and inotify_add_watch(2) as well
+ as polling and reading from the inotify file descriptor.
+ Heinrich Schuchardt
+ munmap() does not generate inotify events
+
+locale.7
+ Marko Myllynen [Michael Kerrisk]
+ Document the LOCPATH environment variable
Michael Kerrisk
- SEE ALSO: add inotifywait(1) and inotifywatch(1)
+ Add further details on various categories
