[jc: moved everybody else to bcc] Please do not spam the git mailing list with these manual page update patches. We may be interested in the final contents of the manual pages, we appreciate the work done by the linux-man project, but we already have our share of patch traffic on this list that people are swamped with. 2021年10月30日(土) 14:32 Alejandro Colomar <alx.manpages@xxxxxxxxx>: > > Hello Michael, > > I added the C2X [[deprecated]] attribute to the prototypes of some > system calls.
