Add a reference to the AF_ALG protocol accessible via socket(2).
fflush.3
Michael Kerrisk [Sergey V. Zubkov]
Clarify that flushing of input streams occurs only for seekable files
See https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91931
Michael Kerrisk [Sergey V. Zubkov]
POSIX.1-2008 specifies the behavior when flushing input streams
POSIX.1-2001 did not have a specification for input streams,
but POSIX.1-2008 added one.
getopt.3
Michael Kerrisk
SEE ALSO: add getopt(1)
random.3
Heinrich Schuchardt
SEE ALSO: add getrandom(2)
termios.3
Michael Kerrisk
SEE ALSO: add reset(1), setterm(1), tput(1)
tzset.3
J William Piggott
Document behavior when TZ filespec omits the colon
If the TZ filespec omits the leading colon, glibc will parse
it for any valid format, i.e., it will still work.
J William Piggott
Add description for posixrules file
J William Piggott
Correct system timezone file path
J William Piggott
There are only two TZ formats
tzset(3) currently states that there are three TZ formats. The
first two it lists are actually variations of the POSIX-style
TZ format, of which there are at least five variations.
This patch corrects this to match the POSIX specification of
TZ having only two formats.
J William Piggott
Filespec omitted incorrect
Paragraph three of the DESCRIPTION section says
that when TZ is set, but empty, then UTC is used.
Later it says if the TZ filespec is omitted then the file
/usr/share/zoneinfo/localtime is used. This is incorrect,
it will use UTC in that case as well.
J William Piggott
Fix incorrect TZ string representation
The TZ string representation indicates that the start/end
rules are required; this is incorrect.
J William Piggott
Add ENVIRONMENT section + other rearrangements
FILES section was overly verbose and included
environment variables. Added ENVIRONMENT section,
removing ENV VARS from the FILES section.
random.4
Heinrich Schuchardt
SEE ALSO: add getrandom(2)
passwd.5
Michael Kerrisk
SEE ALSO: add chfn(1), chsh(1)
