Changes since v1: * Replace all ".I" with ".IR", except when used for titles. * Append punctuation to ".IR" and ".BR" when it makes sense (requested by Alejandro Colomar). * Cut lines according to the semantic newline rules (requested by Alejandro Colomar). * Remove roman style from ".TP" section titles (requested by Alejandro Colomar). * Add comma after "i.e." and "e.g.". * Add a "CONFORMING TO" section. * Replace "(2)" with "()" for the described syscall name. --- man2/landlock_restrict_self.2 | 133 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 133 insertions(+) create mode 100644 man2/landlock_restrict_self.2 diff --git a/man2/landlock_restrict_self.2 b/man2/landlock_restrict_self.2 new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..4b10997e2fb6 --- /dev/null +++ b/man2/landlock_restrict_self.2 @@ -0,0 +1,133 @@ +.\" Copyright © 2017-2020 Mickaël Salaün <mic@xxxxxxxxxxx> +.\" Copyright © 2019-2020 ANSSI +.\" Copyright © 2021 Microsoft Corporation +.\" +.\" %%%LICENSE_START(VERBATIM) +.\" Permission is granted to make and distribute verbatim copies of this +.\" manual provided the copyright notice and this permission notice are +.\" preserved on all copies. +.\" +.\" Permission is granted to copy and distribute modified versions of this +.\" manual under the conditions for verbatim copying, provided that the +.\" entire resulting derived work is distributed under the terms of a +.\" permission notice identical to this one. +.\" +.\" Since the Linux kernel and libraries are constantly changing, this +.\" manual page may be incorrect or out-of-date.
