Elie De Brauwer bbb9456ec4 recvmmsg.2: Add/correct kernel version info for recvmmsg() and MSG_WAITFORNONE
This patch isolates the since/version related fixes as requested.
This change introduces the following delta:
 * The page states it was added in 2.6.32 but it is only added
    2.6.33 (ref: http://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_2_6_33)
 * The MSG_WAITFORONE flag was in turn only added in 2.6.34
   (ref: http://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_2_6_34)

Mark Hills a1f016851a link.2, mkdir.2, mknod.2, open.2, rename.2, symlink.2, write.2, mkfifo.3: Document EDQUOT error
The return error EDQUOT is not documented in open(2), write(2),
symlink(2) etc..

Whether inodes or disk blocks are required for each function
is something I based on received wisdom and BSD documentation,
rather than tracing the code to the kernel. For symlink(2)
this certainly depends on the file system type.

This patch was previously sent to the linux-man mailing list
as an RFC in September 2010.

2012-12-17 20:15:01 +01:00
Elie De Brauwer daf3eb0c70 sendmmsg.2: Add example program for sendmmsg()
The example uses sendmmsg() to send out a string "onetwo"
on a first datagram, where both halves originate from
distinct buffers and a second datagram contains "three",
coming from a single buffer.

Tested with netcat listening:
root@ubuntu:~# nc -l -u -p 1234
onetwothree

And tcpdump peeking:
root@ubuntu:~# tcpdump -c 2 -s 0 -X -ni lo tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
listening on lo, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 65535 bytes
