Global changes
|
|
|
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Many math pages had their synopses compressed, as per suggestion
|
|
|
|
|
from Fabian Kreutz.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Many minor content and formatting bug fixes were made to the math
|
2006-08-02 11:01:14 +00:00
|
|
|
|
pages, following suggestions from Fabian Kreutz (who recently
|
|
|
|
|
translated many of the 1.70 math pages into German) and
|
2004-12-20 14:00:28 +00:00
|
|
|
|
Andries Brouwer.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2006-08-02 11:01:14 +00:00
|
|
|
|
For consistency, all instances "super-user" were changed to the more
|
2004-12-20 14:00:28 +00:00
|
|
|
|
common "superuser".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After a note from Vasya Pupkin, I added <errno.h> to the SYNOPSIS
|
2006-08-02 11:01:14 +00:00
|
|
|
|
of several Section 2 pages using the _syscallN() macros.
|
2004-12-20 14:00:28 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In addition:
|
|
|
|
|
-- erroneous semicolons at the end of _syscallN() were removed
|
|
|
|
|
on various pages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2006-03-20 21:14:16 +00:00
|
|
|
|
-- types such as "uint" in syscallN() declarations were changed
|
2004-12-20 14:00:28 +00:00
|
|
|
|
to "unsigned int", etc.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
-- various other minor breakages in the synopses were fixed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Changed range for "%S" from 0..61 to 0..60.
|
2005-03-31 12:57:55 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
2006-08-02 11:01:14 +00:00
|
|
|
|
SUSv3 says 0..60. I think the manual page probably says
|
2005-03-31 12:57:55 +00:00
|
|
|
|
0..61, because that's what SUSv2 said.
|
2006-08-02 11:01:14 +00:00
|
|
|
|
(Some other implementations' man pages also say 0..61 --
|
2005-03-31 12:57:55 +00:00
|
|
|
|
e.g., Solaris 8 & 9, Tru64 5.1B; FreeBSD 5.1 says 0..60.)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The glibc manual currently says 0..60.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2006-08-02 11:01:14 +00:00
|
|
|
|
Given that SUSv3 says 0..60, I've changed the
|
2005-03-31 12:57:55 +00:00
|
|
|
|
manual page to also say this:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
-The second as a decimal number (range 00 to 61).
|
|
|
|
|
+The second as a decimal number (range 00 to 60).
|
|
|
|
|
+(The range is up to 60 to allow for occasional leap seconds.)

2005-03-31 12:57:55 +00:00

as for wait(2).
|
|
|

|

mtk
|
|
|
|
|
Changed name of argument from 'string' to 'command' (like POSIX).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Noted that glibc does nowadays explicitly check for the existence
|
|
|
|
|
of the shell if 'command' is NULL, rather than the older behaviour
|
|
|
|
|
of assuming the shell exists and always returning 1 if
|
|
|
|
|
'command' is NULL.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
Other wording and formatting clean-ups.

undocumented.3

|
|
|
|
The changes in this release consist *solely* of formatting fixes, with
|
|
|
|
|
the aim bringing greater consistency to the manual pages according to
|
2005-10-19 13:11:27 +00:00
|
|
|
|
the following rules:
|
|
|
|
|
|
2006-08-02 11:01:14 +00:00
|
|
|
|
-- Function name references should *always* be followed by
|
2005-10-19 13:11:27 +00:00
|
|
|
|
parentheses, "()" (possibly containing a manual page section
|
|
|
|
|
number).
|
|
|
|
|
|
2006-08-02 11:01:14 +00:00
|
|
|
|
-- The parentheses following a function name should *not* be
|
2005-10-19 13:11:27 +00:00
|
|
|
|
formatted. Thus, for example, instead of:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.B name()
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
one should write:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.BR name ()
|
|

|
|
|
|
Much of the change was automated using two scripts:
|
2005-10-19 13:11:27 +00:00
|
|
|
|
add_parens_for_own_funcs.sh and unformat_parens.sh.
|
2006-08-02 11:01:14 +00:00
|
|
|
|
For the (possible) benefit of downstream manual page maintainers and
|
2005-10-19 13:11:27 +00:00
|
|
|
|
translators, I have placed these scripts in a new subdirectory 'scripts'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
NOTE THE FOLLOWING POINTS WELL:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
-- These scripts provide a computer-assisted solution to the above
|
|
|
|
|
two goals. However, they are not perfect, and their output should
|
2006-08-02 11:01:14 +00:00
|
|
|
|
be scanned by a human. (To see what changes the two scripts
|
2005-10-19 13:11:27 +00:00
|
|
|
|
*would* make, without making them, use the "-n" command line option.)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
-- The scripts do not fix all instances that violate the above rules:
|
|
|
|
|
some manual fixes are required. Two further scripts are provided
|
2006-08-02 11:01:14 +00:00
|
|
|
|
to help find remaining instances of function names without
|
2005-10-19 13:11:27 +00:00
|
|
|
|
following "()": find_dots_no_parens.sh and find_slashes_no_parens.sh.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following changes were made:
|
|
|
|
|
|
2006-08-02 11:01:14 +00:00
|
|
|
|
-- add_parens_for_own_funcs.sh was applied to the pages in Sections
|
2005-10-19 13:11:27 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2 and 3.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2006-08-02 11:01:14 +00:00
|
|
|
|
-- unformat_parens.sh was applied to pages in Sections 2, 3, 4, and 7
|
2005-10-19 13:11:27 +00:00
|
|
|
|
(the only sections where such changes were required).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
-- further changes (not so very many) were performed by hand.
|
2006-08-02 11:01:14 +00:00
|
|
|
|
(found places to fix with the assistance of find_dots_no_parens.sh
|
2005-10-19 13:11:27 +00:00
|
|
|
|
and find_slashes_no_parens.sh).

Most instances of the constant "NULL" are not formatted (bolded) in
|
|
|
|
|
man pages, but a few are. For consistency, formatting on "NULL" has
|
2005-10-24 16:32:49 +00:00
|
|
|
|
been removed where it occurred.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Many minor formatting fixes were made.

|
|

2006-08-02 11:01:14 +00:00

Reworded text around PAGESIZE, noting also that

Removed words "as well" (added in 2.11) from the phrase
|
|
|
|
|
"and it gets these last five capabilities if its fsuid is 0 as well"
|
|
|
|
|
since there are (unusual) situations in which fsuid can be 0 while
|
|
|
|
|
the effective UID is not.

|
|
|
2006-08-02 11:01:14 +00:00

system UID, and setresgid() likewise always modifies the file
|
2005-10-31 10:10:46 +00:00

|
2005-10-31 10:10:46 +00:00

explaining that some systems need the former header.

Global changes
|

|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Typographical or grammatical errors have been corrected in several
|
|
|
|
|
places.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Function and page cross references that were italicised were made bold
|
2006-08-02 11:01:14 +00:00
|
|
|
|
(which is how the majority of function and page cross references
|
2005-11-03 14:09:48 +00:00
|
|
|
|
were already done).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Instances of things like "NULL-terminated string" were changed to
|
|
|
|
|
"null-terminated string".
|
|
|
|
|
|
2006-08-02 11:01:14 +00:00
|
|
|
|
Pathnames, structures, arguments, and <header-files> that were bold
|
2005-11-03 14:09:48 +00:00
|
|
|
|
were changed to italics.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2006-08-02 11:01:14 +00:00
|
|
|
|
Instances of the constant "NULL" that were bold-faced were made
|
2005-11-03 14:09:48 +00:00
|
|
|
|
unformatted (which is how most instances of "NULL" were already
|
|
|
|
|
formatted.)

Improved description of E2BIG error: it relates to the sum
|
|
|
|
|
of the bytes in both environment and argument list.

|
|
|
|
|

fcntl.2
|

mtk

Clarified parts of the discussion of file leases,
|
|
|
|
|
noting effect of open(O_NONBLOCK), interruption
|
|
|
|
|
by signal handler, or termination by signal in

lease breaker.

|
|
|
Volker Reichelt / mtk
|
2006-08-02 11:01:14 +00:00
|
|
|

Fixed to point out that that frexp() returns a number whose
|
|
|
|
|
*absolute* value is >= 0.5 and < 1. Amended the example
|
2005-11-17 18:09:54 +00:00

program to demonstrate this.

Add EWOULDBLOCK error for file leases.

putenv.3

|
mtk
|
2006-08-02 11:01:14 +00:00
|
|
|
|
Although the glibc implementation returns -1 on error (and some
|
|
|
|
|
other man pages (e.g., the BSDs) also document that value for
|
2005-11-17 18:09:54 +00:00
|
|
|
|
error returns), SUSv3 merely says "non-zero" (and this is
|
|
|
|
|
what manual pages on many implementations also say).

posix_memalign.3
|
|
|
|
|
mtk
|
2006-08-02 11:01:14 +00:00
|
|
|
|
Formerly, the page said that all systems declare memalign() in
|
2005-11-17 18:09:54 +00:00
|
|
|
|
<malloc.h>. In fact, many declare it in <stdlib.h>.
|

strtok.3
|
|
|
|
|
mtk
|
2006-08-02 11:01:14 +00:00

|
|
Almost a complete rewrite after Angelo pointed out
|
2005-11-17 18:09:54 +00:00
|
|
|
|
that the existing page was deficient.
|

proc.5

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following pages have been relocated into section 7, since
|
|
|
|
|
that is their more natural home. SEE ALSO references in various
|
|
|
|
|
other pages have been adjusted.

".so" link files have been created to link the old file locations to the
|
|
|
|
|
new file locations. These links are added just to ensure that cross
|
2006-05-12 18:12:51 +00:00
|
|
|
|
references from any other (non-man-pages) pages will remain valid;
|
2006-08-02 11:01:14 +00:00
|
|
|
|
eventually these links will be removed.

Global changes

--------------
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
There was a major reworking of the CONFORMING TO sections
|
|
|
|
|
in most manual pages.
|
|
|
|
|
mtk
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* generally try to rationalise the names used for standards.
|
|
|
|
|
The preferred names are now documented as the head words
|
|
|
|
|
of the list in standards(7). For the future: there is
|
|
|
|
|
probably no need to talk about anything more than
|
|
|
|
|
C89, C99, POSIX.1-2001 (or later), xBSD, and SVr4.
|
|
|
|
|
(In particular, I've eliminated most references to XPG
|
|
|
|
|
and SVID, replacing them with references to SUS or SVr4.)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* eliminate discussion of errors that can occur on other
|
|
|
|
|
systems. This information exists only patchily in the
|
|
|
|
|
manual pages, is probably of limited use, is hard to maintain,
|
|
|
|
|
and was in some cases simply wrong (and probably always was).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Tried to ensure that those interfaces specified in C99 or
|
|
|
|
|
POSIX.1-2001 are marked as such in their manual pages.
