tzset.3: Correct system timezone file path
...
The manual incorrectly states the system timezone
path as /usr/share/zoneinfo/localtime. Glibc does
not use that file for anything, it uses
$(prefix)/etc/localtime.
There is an ambiguous reference in the man-page to
/etc/localtime, but it does not indicate that it
will be used. It states clearly that
/usr/share/zoneinfo/localtime is used.
A comment in the glibc Makeconfig even says that
file should not exist:
> ... relative to $(zonedir). It is a good idea
> to put this somewhere other than there, so the
> zoneinfo directory contains only universal data,
> localizing the configuration data elsewhere.
Furthermore, the man page does not indicate the
reason this file is being used; which is because
it is the configured system timezone.
A later patch in this series addresses the
possibility that /etc/localtime could be changed
during glibc's compilation. The language changed
in this patch points to the FILE section which is
where the explanation will be. There is no reason
to repeat that information multiple times
throughout the man-page.
EVIDENCE:
glibc/Makeconfig:256: sysconfdir = $(prefix)/etc
glibc/Makeconfig:272: localtime-file = $(sysconfdir)/localtime
FROM INFO LIBC:
C.2 Installing the C Library
============================
To configure the locally used timezone, set the `TZ' environment
variable. The script `tzselect' helps you to select the right value.
As an example, for Germany, `tzselect' would tell you to use
`TZ='Europe/Berlin''. For a system wide installation (the given paths
are for an installation with `--prefix=/usr'), link the timezone file
which is in `/usr/share/zoneinfo' to the file `/etc/localtime'. For
Germany, you might execute `ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Berlin
/etc/localtime'.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
cd /usr/share/zoneinfo/

that when TZ is set, but empty, then UTC is used.

cmsg.3: ensure buf is suitably aligned in sending example
...
Inspection of the definition of CMSG_FIRSTHDR (both in glibc and
the suggested definition in RFC3542) shows that it yields the
msg_control field. So when sending, the pointer placed in
msg_control should be suitably aligned as a struct cmsghdr.
In the sending example, buf was declared as a bare char array,
and so is not necessarily suitably aligned.
The solution here involves placing buf inside a union, and is
based on the sockets/scm_rights_send.c sample from The Linux
Programming Interface "dist" source code collection.

getgrent.3: Add ENOENT and EAGAIN to error list
...
It's possible to get ENOENT returned from getgrent()
if the backend, for example say SSSD, isn't configured
or the daemon isn't running. The same can be said of any
of the NSS backend.
As POSIX does not list ENOENT, we can list it ourselves
and define it how we like.
I don't know how you handle errno values that are glibc
specific, but here is the patch that enhances getgrent(3)
to make users aware of what ENOENT is intended to mean
from glibc.
While I'm fixing one I might as well [add EAGAIN].

clock.3: The switch to the use of clock_gettime() was to improve *accuracy*
...
Quoting Vincent Lefevre:
In glibc 2.17 and earlier, clock() was implemented on top of
times(2). For improved precision, since glibc 2.18, it is
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
implemented on top of clock_gettime(2) (using the
CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID clock).
This looks strange. The user doesn't seek improved precision, but
improved accuracy: if one gets more digits but the value itself is
less accurate (i.e. the error against the ideal value is larger),
this is bad. Perhaps changing "precision" to "accuracy" would be
correct (I assume that the real goal of the change was not just
improved precision, but more importantly the resulting improved
accuracy). I've reported a bug about the glibc documentation:

printf.3: Remove libc4 and libc5 details
...
Rich Felker noted that "scare text" in the man page warned about
the use of snprintf() on libc, and that some people had cited
this as a reason not to use snprintf(). Linux libc is now
ancient history, so there is no real need to keep that text.
But, while we're at it, we may as well clear out all of the
other ancient libc4 and libc5 pieces in the page. They are
nowadays more clutter than help.
