unix.7: 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.

unix.7: 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.

man complex (from release 3.18) contains the following code:

Reading the C99 standard, "complex" is not a valid type, and several

It should be
double complex z = cexp(I * pi);
instead.

Nowadays mandb has provision to understand a character set
encoding that is explicitly indicated in the first line
of the source. As pointed out by Colin Watson, including
such an explicit indication on pages encoded in anything
other than ISO 8859-1 or UTF-8 is useful for man-pages
that aren't shipped in UTF-8.

Trivial punctuation fixes in SEE ALSO
...
In SEE ALSO, when a few man pages are referenced, those are divided by commas.
Every reference is on a separate line, and all lines but the last one should
end with comma. I spotted one place where there is no comma in between
references, and mocked up an awk script to find similar places:
for f in man*/*; do awk '/^.SH ["]SEE ALSO["]/ {sa=1; print "== " FILENAME " =="; print; next } /^\.(PP|SH)/ {sa=0; no=0; next} /^\.BR/ { if (sa==1) { print; if (no == 1) print "Missing comma in " FILENAME " +" FNR-1; no=0 } } /^\.BR .*)$/ { if (sa==1) no=1; next } /\.\\"/ {next} /.*/ { if (sa==1) { print; next }}' $f; done | fgrep 'Missing comma'
This patch fixes all the places found by the above script.
Also, there is an extra dot at the end of uri.7 "SEE ALSO" section.
Removed as per man-pages(7) recommendation.

The POSIX timers API is implemented (mostly) within the kernel,

not 3. Therefore fix those pages that currently refer to these

setlocale.3, locale.7: Clean up the description of LANGUAGE environment variable
...
Clean up the $LANGUAGE description, by removing bogus comments
from setlocale(3) and expanding the mention in locale(7).
Maybe you will decide that a more detailed description should be left
to the gettext(3) documentation, but I actually care about the invisible
part of the patch more since the comments have put me off the track
initially ($LANGUAGE has nothing to do with setlocale(3) and is
completely isolated to gettext, as obvious from the glibc sources).

capabilities.7: Various minor fixes as per Debian bug 471029
...
The relevant pieces of
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=471029 are:
- Delete duplicate subentry for KEYCTL_CHOWN/KEYCTL_SETPERM
operations in the CAP_SYS_ADMIN entry. (It feels like that
capability entry should be converted to a list, but I've left it
in semicolon-delimited form for now.)
- Remove text about ENFILE from the text about the
/proc/sys/fs/file-max limit in the CAP_SYS_ADMIN entry, since
this is already described in the man pages for the relevant
ofile-creating system calls.
- Correct or clarify a few other bits of grammar and such; see the
diff file itself for details.

This is more consistent with the term "mounts namespace"
used in the 2008 ACM SIGOPS paper, "Virtual servers

(I avoided the "s", because using the plural strikes me

the "PIDs namespace" or the "networks namespace", etc..)

inotify.7: Fix description of max_user_watches
...
It seems that inotify(7) is wrong here:
"/proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_watches
This specifies a limit on the number of watches that can be
associated with each inotify instance."
On my system, the default value for this variable is 8192. But I
cannot create more than 8192 watches in total for the same UID
even when they are on different inotify instances. So I suggest
to rephrase this as: "This specifies an upper limit on the
number of watches that can be created per real user ID."
