The man pages were rather inconsistent in the use of "Unix"

Christoph Hellwig 2250b3eea5 readdir.3: Fix text relating to DT_UNKNOWN and 'd_type' support
(This mirrors the previous change to getdents.2)
Some file systems provide partial support for 'dt_type',
returning DT_UNKNOWN for cases they don't support.
Update the discussion of 'd_type' and DT_UNKNOWN to
support this.

Michael Kerrisk efb92ba155 getdents.2, readdir.3: d_type is currently only supported on ext[234]
As at kernel 2.6.27, only ext[234] support d_type.
On other file systems, d_type is always set to DT_UNKNOWN (0).

POSIX.1-2008 and glibc call this argument 'dirp' (consistent
with the fact that it is a *pointer* to a DIR structure).

Michael Kerrisk 28d88c1751 Global change to many pages...
Various pages use inconsistent terms for 'null byte' (which
is the C99/SUSv3 term for the '\0' character).
To rectify this the following changes were made in these pages:

Replace 'zero byte' with 'null byte'.
Replace 'null character' with 'null byte'.
Replace 'nulls' with 'null bytes'.
Replace 'NUL-terminated' by 'null-terminated'.
Replace 'NUL' by 'null byte'.
Replace 'terminating NUL' by 'terminating null byte'.
Replace 'final NUL' by 'terminating null byte'.
Replace 'NUL character' by 'null byte'.
