New and rewritten pages
|
||||
-----------------------
|
||||
|
||||
subpage_prot.2
|
||||
Michael Kerrisk
|
||||
New page documenting the PowerPC-specific subpage_prot(2)
|
||||
|
||||
aio_init.3
|
||||
Michael Kerrisk
|
||||
New page documenting aio_init(3)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Newly documented interfaces in existing pages
|
||||
---------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
posix_fadvise.2
|
||||
Michael Kerrisk
|
||||
Document the architecture-specific arm_fadvise64_64() system call
|
||||
This ARM-specific system call fixes the argument ordering
|
||||
for that architecture. Since Linux 2.6.14.
|
||||
|
||||
sync_file_range.2
|
||||
Michael Kerrisk
|
||||
Document the architecture-specific sync_file_range2() system call
|
||||
As described in commit edd5cd4a9424f22b0fa08bef5e299d41befd5622,
|
||||
the sync_file_range() argument order is broken for some
|
||||
architectures (PowerPC, ARM, tile). The remedy was a different
|
||||
system call using the right argument order on those architectures.
|
||||
|
||||
psignal.3
|
||||
Guillem Jover
|
||||
Document psiginfo()
|
||||
psiginfo() was added to glibc in version 2.10.
|
||||
Michael Kerrisk
|
||||
Add details, VERSIONS, and BUGS for psiginfo()
|
||||
|
||||
ip.7
|
||||
Balazs Scheidler
|
||||
Document IP_RECVORIGDSTADDR
|
||||
Document IP_TRANSPARENT
|
||||
Michael Kerrisk
|
||||
Document IP_FREEBIND
|
||||

Global changes
|
||||
--------------
|
||||
|
||||
Many pages
|
||||
Michael Kerrisk
|
||||
global fix: s/Unix/UNIX/
|
||||
The man pages were rather inconsistent in the use of "Unix"
|
||||
versus "UNIX". Let's go with the trademark usage.
|
||||
|
||||
Various pages
|
||||
Michael Kerrisk
|
||||
Global fix: s/pseudo-terminal/pseudoterminal/
|
||||
|
||||
grantpt.3, ptsname.3, unlockpt.3, pts.4
|
||||
Michael Kerrisk
|
||||
Global fix: s/pty/pseudoterminal/
|
||||
|
||||
recv.2, cmsg.3, unix.7
|
||||
Michael Kerrisk
|
||||
global fix: s/UNIX socket/UNIX domain socket/
|
||||
|
||||
fmtmsg.3, gethostbyname.3, termios.3
|
||||
Michael Kerrisk
|
||||
Global fix: s/Unixware/UnixWare/
|
||||

||||
|
||||

Make these into links
|
||||
In the previous release, these files were accidentally made copies
|
||||
of getaddrinfo_a.3, instead of being made as link files.
|
||||
|
||||
getifaddrs.3
|
||||
Thomas Jarosch
|
||||
Prevent possible NULL pointer access in example program
|
||||

||||
malloc_hook.3
|
||||
Ivana Varekova
|
||||
Warn that these functions are deprecated
|
||||

|
||||
unix.7
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
Michael Kerrisk
|
||||
Fix description of abstract socket names
|
||||
As reported by Lennart Poettering:
|
||||
The part about "abstract" sockets is misleading as it suggests
|
||||
that the sockaddr returned by getsockname() would necessarily
|
||||
have the size of sizeof(struct sockaddr), which however is not
|
||||
the case: getsockname() returns exactly the sockaddr size that
|
||||
was passed in on bind(). In particular, two sockets that are
|
||||
bound to the same sockaddr but different sizes are completely
|
||||
independent.
|
||||

|
||||
Michael Kerrisk
|
||||
Fix description of "pathname" sockets
|
||||
As reported by Lennart Poettering:
|
||||
The part about "pathname" sockets suggests usage of
|
||||
sizeof(sa_family_t) + strlen(sun_path) + 1
|
||||
for calculating the sockaddr size. Due to alignment/padding
|
||||
this is probably not a good idea. Instead, one should use
|
||||
offsetof(struct sockaddr_un, sun_path) + strlen() + 1
|
||||
or something like that.
