Michael Kerrisk 2bbe9bd9ae seccomp.2: Rework SECCOMP_GET_NOTIF_SIZES somewhat
The existing text says the structures (plural!) contain a 'struct
seccomp_data'. But this is only true for the received notification
structure (seccomp_notif). So, reword the sentence to be more
general, noting simply that the structures may evolve over time.

Add some comments to the structure definition.

Michael Kerrisk 855d489a7f Various pages: Standardize wording around setting of 'errno' on error
In the RETURN VALUE sections, a number of different wordings
are used in to describe the fact that 'errno' is set on error.
There's no reason for the difference in wordings, since the same
thing is being described in each case. Switch to a standard
wording that is the same as FreeBSD and similar to the wording
used in POSIX.1.

In this change, "to indicate the cause of the error"
is changed to "to indicate the error".

Ganimedes Colomar 632d115294 Various pages: Normalize SYNOPSIS notes about nonexistent glibc wrappers
To easily distinguish documentation about glibc wrappers from
documentation about kernel syscalls, let's have a normalized
'Note' in the SYNOPSIS, and a further explanation in the page body
(NOTES in most of them), as already happened in many (but not all)
of the manual pages for syscalls without a wrapper.  Furthermore,
let's normalize the messages, following membarrier.2 (because it's
already quite extended), so that it's easy to use grep to find
those pages.

To find these pages, we used:
$ grep -rn wrapper man? | sort -V
and
$ grep -rni support.*glibc | sort -V

delete_module.2, init_module.2:  glibc 2.23 is no longer
  maintained, so we changed the notes about wrappers, to say that
  there are no glibc wrappers for these system calls; see NOTES.

We didn't fix some obsolete pages such as create_module.2.

Hi Michael,

I'd say that the cast doesn't fix any problems at all.  It silences a
valid warning, and I'd use a pragma for that (to be more explicit about
the intention of silencing a warning) if I do want -Wconversion enabled
(which usually I don't want, because it's too noisy) and I'm sure that
this won't overflow.  I'd limit the use casts to only when I *really*
need to.

I guess that if you enable -O3, the warning will vanish again because
the compiler will optimize away 'x' (but I didn't test).

Quoting Branden:

*roff escape sequences may sometimes look like C escapes, but that
is misleading.  *roff is in part a macro language and that means
recursive expansion to arbitrary depths.

You can get away with "\\" in a context where no macro expansion
is taking place, but try to spell a literal backslash this way in
the argument to a macro and you will likely be unhappy with
results.

Try viewing the attached file with "man -l".

"\e" is the preferred and portable way to get a portable "escape
literal" going back to CSTR #54, the original Bell Labs troff
paper.

groff(7) discusses the issue:

  \\     reduces to a single backslash; useful to delay its
         interpretation as escape character in copy mode.  For a
         printable backslash, use \e, or even better \[rs], to be
         independent from the current escape character.

As of groff 1.22.4, groff_man(7) does as well:

  \e     Widely used in man pages to represent a backslash output
         glyph.  It works reliably as long as the .ec request is
         not used, which should never happen in man pages, and it
         is slightly more portable than the more exact ‘\(rs’
         (“reverse solidus”) escape sequence.

People not concerned with portability to extremely old troffs should
probably just use \(rs (or \[rs]), as it means "the backslash
glyph", not "the glyph corresponding to whatever the current escape
character is".

Michael Kerrisk 8fb01fdeac adjtimex.2, futex.2, mremap.2, seccomp.2, getnameinfo.3, random.3, console_codes.4, sysfs.5, sched.7, unicode.7: Use zero‐width space in appropriate locations
Quoting Branden:

    *roff systems will interpret the period in the unpatched
    page as sentence-ending punctuation and put inter-sentence
    spacing after it.  (This might not be visible on
    nroff/terminal devices, but it is more likely to be on
    typesetter/PostScript/PDF output).

    groff_man(7) in groff 1.22.4 attempts to throw man page
    writers a bone here:

     \&     Zero‐width space.  Append to an input line to prevent
            an end‐of‐ sentence punctuation sequence from being
            recognized as such, or insert at the beginning of an
            input line to prevent a dot or apostrophe from being
            interpreted as the beginning of a roff request.
