Marko Myllynen 2c0cac3e00 charmap.5: ffix 2016-06-23 12:54:29 +02:00
Marko Myllynen bf56400c13 locale.5: Adjust conformance 
Since we now know that glibc does not support all the keywords
mentioned in ISO/IEC TR 14652 [1] and in general glibc aims to
be conforming to POSIX first and foremost, I think it's best
just to drop the reference to ISO/IEC TR 14652 from the man page.

1) http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/SC22/WG20/docs/n972-14652ft.pdf

After this I think the locale related man pages are finally as
complete as they need to be.

Marko Myllynen 74e03e909c locale.5: Document missing keywords, minor updates 
Cross-checked the current locale.5 page against glibc locales and
fixed the following issues:

- mention define/ifdef/else/endif
- mention reorder-sections-{after,end}
- mention script
- section/section-symbol are not used, only mentioned in the ISO TR
- Fix int_currency_symbol -> int_curr_symbol typo
- few formatting fixes

Marko Myllynen 28ad474d15 charmap.5: Clarify keyword syntax 
Updates charmap(5) to match the syntax all the glibc
charmap files are using currently.

Marko Myllynen 8f2929107b locale.5, repertoiremap.5: Clarify keyword syntax 
All the glibc locale/repertoiremap files use the format described
in the patch. The fix is trivial (and adds an example just in
case), I presume these were copypasted from charmaps.5 page, all
the glibc charmaps use slightly different format for keywords
(I'll send a separate patch to address charmaps.5 next).

Marko Myllynen c9aec10afb locale.5: Complete LC_COLLATE 
Here's the first attempt to (almost) complete the locale.5 manual
page by documenting all (but perhaps one) of the missing
LC_COLLATE keywords.

I think the LC_COLLATE section is still not enough to be used as
the only source when writing collation rules from scratch but
perhaps that's not even needed, it could be also thought that
the section 5 pages merely describe the format used in the files.
Naturally more information could be added later on top of this
patch.

Few notes:

- AFAICS coll_weight_max is not used anywhere in glibc
- I'm not aware of any C library implementation on Linux (for
  which this manual page would be relevant) which would
  implement the POSIX options not supported by glibc
- the glibc specific script keyword could still be documented

Sources:

http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/SC22/WG20/docs/n972-14652ft.pdf

PS. A couple of unrelated comment clean-ups slipped in as well,
sorry about those.

Michael Kerrisk 2c8e09b4ff elf.5: Fix description of STV_PROTECTED 
Quoting Mike:

gabi says:
https://refspecs.linuxbase.org/elf/gabi4+/ch4.symtab.html
A symbol defined in the current component is protected if it is
visible in other components but not preemptable, meaning that
any reference to such a symbol from within the defining component
must be resolved to the definition in that component, even if
there is a definition in another component that would preempt by
the default rules. A symbol with STB_LOCAL binding may not have
STV_PROTECTED visibility. If a symbol definition with
STV_PROTECTED visibility from a shared object is taken as
resolving a reference from an executable or another shared object,
the SHN_UNDEF symbol table entry created has STV_DEFAULT
visibility.

solaris/oracle says:
https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E26502_01/html/E26507/chapter6-79797.html
A symbol that is defined in the current component is protected
if the symbol is visible in other components, but cannot be
preempted. Any reference to such a symbol from within the defining
component must be resolved to the definition in that component.
This resolution must occur, even if a symbol definition exists in
another component that would interpose by the default rules.
A symbol with STB_LOCAL binding will not have STV_PROTECTED
visibility.

but i think this ibm article is probably the most understandable:
https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/aix/library/au-aix-symbol-visibility/
The symbol is visible outside the current executable or shared
object, but it may not be overridden. In other words, if a
protected symbol in a shared library is referenced by an other
code in the shared library, the other code will always reference
the symbol in the shared library, even if the executable defines
a symbol with the same name.

Nikola Forró 85a7acd768 nsswitch.conf.5: Update NSS compatibility mode description 
From the current description of NSS compatibility mode it seems
that /etc/passwd is the only file where special entries are
permitted.  But "compat" service can also be specified for group
and shadow databases, so this needs to be changed.

The list of special entries is for passwd database only, group
and shadow databases are not mentioned.  Because group database
does not support netgroup special entries and it deals with
groups, not users, it is better to make a separate list
of entries for it.

It is true that the default source for the compat pseudo-databases
is "nis", but it can be overridden by any NSS service, not just
"nisplus". Even "compat" itself can be specified as the source for
the pseudo-databases, but doing that of course leads to infinite
recursion, so it makes sense to disallow that.

The information was obtained from glibc source code, namely from
the following files:
nis/nss_compat/compat-pwd.c
nis/nss_compat/compat-grp.c
nis/nss_compat/compat-spwd.c

Carlos O'Donell 427cee53f0 hosts.equiv.5: Fix format, clarify IdM needs, and provide examples. 
In some recent work with a Red Hat customer I had the opportunity
to discuss the fine nuances of the ruserok() function and related
API which are used to implement rlogin and rsh.

It came to my attention after working with QE on some automated
internal testing that there were no good examples in the hosts.equiv
manual page showing how the format was supposed to work for this
file and for ~/.rhosts, worse the "format" line showed that there
should be spaces between arguments when that would clearly lead
to incorrect behaviour. In addition some things that the format
allows you to write are just wrong like "-host -user" which makes
no sense since the host is already rejected, and should be written
as "host -user" instead. I added notes in the example to make it
clear that "-host -user" is invalid.

I fixed three things:

(a) The format line.
- Either +, or [-]hostname, or +@netgrp or -@netgrp.
- Either +, or [-]username, or +@netgrp or -@netgrp.
- You must specify something in the hostname portion so remove
  optional brackets.

(b) Clarify language around credentials
- If the host is not trusted you must provide credentials to
  the login system and that could be anything really and it
  depends on your configuration e.g. PAM or whatever IdM you have.

(c) Provide real-world examples
- Provide several real world examples and some corner case
  examples for how you would write something. Hopefully others
  can add examples as they see fit.

glibc.git/programs/ld-time.c seems to suggest it's not a good

it's actually better to leave this one undocumented:

/* XXX We don't perform any tests on the timezone value since this is

Marko Myllynen d850c7e08f repertoiremap.5: Symbolic names AKA mnemonics 
A long time ago in glibc, repertoire maps were used (but they
were removed already in 2000), those mapping files were named
as mnemonics, so "mnemonic" is a term that would almost
certainly come up if somebody studies glibc side (perhaps even
the related standards like ISO 9945 [which I don't have access
to]) so I thought it's worth to mention to term in the man page
to make sure we're talking about the same thing, otherwise
someone might wonder is that something different or not.

IOW, symbolic names and mnemonics are often used interchangeably,
let's mention the other often used term in the page, too.

Elie De Brauwer 4f747ba0b2 proc.5: Document /proc/sys/vm/compact_memory 
Since 2.6.36 [1] CONFIG_COMPACTION is supported in Linux (for a
detailed explanation see [2]). But in essence the contents of
/proc/buddyinfo shows how much contiguous areas of a certain
size are available. These numbers are not actually up to date
as the Linux kernel will implicitly trigger compaction
(+- defragmentation) when an allocation is done.  This makes it
difficult since you can't predict upfront whether or not a large
allocation will succeed or not.  By using
/proc/sys/vm/compact_memory you can explicitly trigger compaction
to occur and /proc/buddyinfo will give a more realistic view on
the available memory in contiguous areas.

This patch updates proc.5 to explain the usage of this file and is
inspired by Documentation/systcl/vm.txt [3]
