[RFC PATCH 0/4] man[23]/: Add LIBRARY section

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Michael,

As I told you some time ago, I liked the style of FreeBSD for specifying
where a function comes from.  See for example:
<https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=open&apropos=0&sektion=2&manpath=FreeBSD+12.2-RELEASE+and+Ports&arch=default&format=html>
and
<https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=gamma&apropos=0&sektion=3&manpath=FreeBSD+12.2-RELEASE+and+Ports&arch=default&format=html>.

I wrote a few pages to cover most cases:
- A syscall needing syscall(2).
- A syscall wrapped by a library other than glibc.
- A syscall wrapped by glibc.
- A math function.

What do you think about it?

Cheers,

Alex
