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 f06a3f30fa readlink.2: Fix an off-by-one error in example code 
An off-by-one error could trigger a buffer overflow in
some cases in the old code.
See https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=196483

Also some other cosmetic changes to the code (more comments,
better variable names).

Michael Kerrisk cc6e4bf0cf readlink.2: Make example program handle links that report a size of zero 
Some "magic" symlinks created by the kernel (e.g., those under
/proc and /sys) report 'st_size' as zero. Modify the example
program to handle that possibility.

_XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED is obsolete (it existed in SUSv1, but not
subsequent standards). _XOPEN_SOURCE >= 500 produces the same
effects as (_XOPEN_SOURCE && _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED). Modifying
the SYNOPSIS of various ages that contain:

    _XOPEN_SOURCE\ >=\ 500 ||
        _XOPEN_SOURCE\ &&\ _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED

to just:

    _XOPEN_SOURCE\ >=\ 500

This has the following benefits:

a) Simplifying the SYNOPSIS by removing ancient
   historical information.

b) Preventing users from being misled into using
   _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED in new source code.

Looking at <features.h> (or feature_test_macros(7)), one can
see that when _XOPEN_SOURCE is defined with the value 700
(or greater), then _POSIX_C_SOURCE is defined with the value
200809L (or greater). Therefore, terms in the man pages such as

    _XOPEN_SOURCE\ >=\ 700 || _POSIX_C_SOURCE\ >=\ 200809L

can be simpified to:

    _POSIX_C_SOURCE\ >=\ 200809L

Chuck Coffing c1de8e3e30 Fix possible race condition in readlink.2 example 
I noticed that the example in the readlink.2 man pages does error
checking for a race condition that would cause the value of the
symbolic link to get larger.  However, it doesn't handle the
opposite case, in which the value gets shorter.  (The NULL
terminator is always set at the old, longer offset.)  This could
cause the program to operate on uninitialized data.

Michael Kerrisk 89cb804a31 readlink.2: srcfix: Note that bufsiz has a signed type at kernel level 
So on a direct syscall, the EINVAL could also occur for bufsiz < 0.
But at the moment, the error text is sufficiently vague
("bufsiz is not positive") that a change to the man page text
is probably not needed.
