Changes to individual pages
|

---------------------------

fcntl.2
|
|
mtk, after a note by Mike Bianchi
|
|
More clearly and consistently describe the whether
|
|
or not the third argument to fnctl() is required,
|
|
and what its type should be.
|
|
mtk
|
|
Move description of negative l_len from NOTES, integrating
|
|
it into the discussion of file locking.
|
|
Minor rewrites of the text on file locking.
|
|
|
|
getrusage.2
|
|
Bernd Eckenfels
|
|
SEE ALSO: Add clock(3), clock_gettime(3).
|
|
See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=353475
|
|
|
|
ioctl_list.2
|
|
mtk
|
|
Remove old sentence about where to send updates for this page.
|
|
|
|
clock.3
|
|
Bernd Eckenfels
|
|
SEE ALSO: Add clock_gettime(3).
|
|
See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=353475
|
|
|
|
clock_getres.3
|
|
Tolga Dalman / mtk
|
|
Add "Link with -lrt" to SYNOPSIS; remove now redundant
|
|
sentence mentioning librt from NOTES.
|
|
|
|
getdate.3
|
|
mtk
|
|
Rewrite description of getdate_r() and integrate into main text
|
|
(rather than describing in NOTES).
|
|
Other parts rewritten for greater clarity.
|
|
Make it clearer in the main text that glibc does not implement %Z;
|
|
remove discussion of that point from NOTES.
|
|
Added an example program.
|
|
|
|
hsearch.3
|
|
mtk
|
|
Noted that table size as specified by 'nel' is immutable.
|
|
Described differences between hsearch() and hsearch_r().
|
|
Added missing pieces to RETURN VALUE.
|
|
Added a number of new entries under ERRORS.
|
|
NOTES: added some basic advice on sizing the hash table;
|
|
noted that when a table is destroyed, the caller is responsible
|
|
for freeing the buffers pointed to by 'key' and 'data' fields.
|
|
One of the BUGS was fixed in glibc 2.3.
|
|
Rewrote and clarified various other pieces.
|
|
Rename arguments for reentrant functions, using same name as
|
|
glibc headers: s/ret/retval/; s/tab/htab/.
|
|
mtk, after a suggestion by Timothy S. Wayland
|
|
Integrate discussion of reentrant functions into main discussion
|
|
(rather than as a short paragraph at the end).
|
|
|
|
ptsname.3
|
|
sukadev
|
|
Fix return type of ptsname_r() in SYNOPSIS.
|
|
|
|
sched_setscheduler.3
|
|
Carsten Emde
|
|
Update kernel version numbers relating to real-time support.
|
|
|
|
sigsetops.3
|
|
Chris Head, signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger
|
|
Fix typo: s/sigdelset/sigorset/
|
|
|
|
proc.5
|
|
Mats Wichmann / mtk
|
|
s/\[number]/[pid]/ in file names for /proc/PID files.
|
|
And similar changes for task/[tid] sub-directories.
|
|
mtk / Mats Wichmann
|
|
In the description if /proc/[pid]/environ, remove reference to
|
|
lilo(8)/grub(8) since there seems to be nothing in those pages
|
|
that related to this /proc file.
|
|
Michael Schurter / mtk
|
|
Remove sentence wrongly saying that /proc/meminfo reports
|
|
info in bytes
|
|
See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=462969
|
|
mtk
|
|
Note that /proc/meminfo reports system-wide memory usage
|
|
statistics.
|
|
Joe Korty
|
|
Document new fields in /proc/interrupts that were added in
|
|
Linux 2.6.24.
|
|
|
|
unix.7
|
|
Marko Kreen
|
|
Since glibc 2.8, _GNU_SOURCE must be defined in order to get
|
|
the definition of the ucred structure from <sys/socket.h>.
