Keno Fischer 5419141e28 ptrace.2: Expand documentation PTRACE_EVENT_SECCOMP traps 
In Linux 4.8 (through a series of commits, 93e35efb8de45393c
being the actual reordering on x86), the order of
PTRACE_EVENT_SECCOMP and syscall-entry-stops was reversed.
Document both behaviors and their interaction with the
various forms of restart.

Andrew Clayton c1bda2c87d getgroups.2: FTM requirements fix for setgroups(2) 
This fixes commit 51c612f (... Update FTM requirements
(_DEFAULT_SOURCE))

This commit updated numerous pages for the _SVID_SOURCE and
_BSD_SOURCE deprecations and the new use of _DEFAULT_SOURCE.

However during this conversion for setgroups(2), _BSD_SOURCE got
replaced by _SVID_SOURCE under the 'Glibc 2.19 and earlier:'
heading.

Put it back to _BSD_SOURCE. This was confirmed by building under
a Glibc 2.17 system and using _SVID_SOURCE resulted in a

    warning: implicit declaration of function ‘setgroups’
           [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]

message. Using _BSD_SOURCE gives a clean compile.

Michael Kerrisk e196d31917 getrandom.2: Clarify that getrandom() is not "reading" from /dev/{random,urandom} 
The existing text is a little confusing, since it somewhat
suggests that getrandom() "reads" from the /dev/random and
/dev/urandom devices. Rather, it is drawing from the same
pools as those devices. Reword the text to clarify that.

Plus a few other wording improvements.

Michael Kerrisk 2e1f8bfa17 getrandom.2, random.4: Consolidate and improve discussion on usage of randomness 
Currently, recommendations on how to consume randomness are
spread across both getrandom(2) and random(4) and the general
opinion seems to be that the text in getrandom(2) does a
somewhat better job. Consolidate the discussion to a single
page (getrandom(2)) and address some of the concerns
expressed about the existing text in random(4).
