Global changes -------------- getaddrinfo.3 getipnodebyname.3 st.4 Michael Kerrisk s/logical OR/bitwise OR/ Changes to individual pages --------------------------- clock_nanosleep.2 Michael Kerrisk Fix discussion of return value when interrupted by a signal epoll_ctl.2 Yuri Kozlov Small fix to types in data structures eventfd.2 Alexander Shishkin Clarified close-on-exec behavior madvise.2 Michael Kerrisk Improve discussion of MADV_SOFT_OFFLINE mkdir.2 Michael Kerrisk Add EMLINK error to ERRORS mq_getsetattr.2 mq_close.3 mq_getattr.3 mq_notify.3 mq_send.3 mq_unlink.3 Lnac Huard Fix return type in SYNOPSIS (s/mqd_t/int/) recv.2 send.2 Michael Kerrisk Remove obsolete reference to glibc version in NOTES recv.2 send.2 Nicholas Hunt Adjust type shown for msg_controllen to glibc reality This patch fixes the type of msg_controllen in the struct msghdr definition given in send.2 and recv.2 to match the definition in glibc and the kernel. select.2 Michael Kerrisk Update NOTES on old glibc pselect() Make it clear that modern glibc uses the kernel pselect() on systems where it is available. See https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14411 statfs.2 Guillem Jover Fix copy & paste error for __SWORD_TYPE definition sysfs.2 Michael Kerrisk Clarify that this syscall is obsolete. And strengthen recommendation to use /proc/filesystems instead. write.2 Michael Kerrisk Add EDESTADDRREQ error a64l.3 Peng Haitao Fix error in NOTES, s/a64l/l64a/ error.3 Linus Nilsson Change "perror" to "strerror" in DESCRIPTION of error() mq_send.3 Michael Kerrisk Fix EAGAIN description (s/empty/full) initrd.4 Yuri Kozlov Fix IP address in explanation of NFS example tzfile.5 Michael Kerrisk Add information on version 2 format timezone files Updated using information from the tzcode 2010l release at ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub. (It's an open question whether or not a version of tzfile.5 should live independently in man-pages. It was added to the man-pages set many years ago. For now, I'll follow a conservative course that causes least pain to downstream, by continuing to maintain a separate copy in man-pages.)
