+Changes to individual pages
+---------------------------
+
+capget.2
+    Michael Kerrisk  [Yang Xu]
+        Add missing details in EPERM error for setting inheritable capabilities
+
+clone.2
+    Michael Kerrisk
+        Note that CLONE_THREAD causes similar behavior to CLONE_PARENT
+            The introductory paragraphs note that "the calling process" is
+            normally synonymous with the "the parent process", except in the
+            case of CLONE_PARENT. The same is also true of CLONE_THREAD.
+    Christian Brauner  [Michael Kerrisk]
+        Mention that CLONE_PARENT is off-limits for inits
+    Michael Kerrisk  [Colin Ian King]
+        Add old EINVAL error for AArch64
+    Michael Kerrisk
+        ERRORS: add EINVAL for use of CLONE_PARENT by an init process
+
+futex.2
+    Ponnuvel Palaniyappan
+        Fix a bug in the example
+
+listen.2
+    Michael Kerrisk  [Peter Gajdos]
+        The 'somaxconn' default value has increased to 4096
+
+modify_ldt.2
+set_thread_area.2
+    Andy Lutomirski  [Markus T Metzger]
+        Fix type of base_addr
+
+move_pages.2
+    John Hubbard  [Michal Hocko]
+        Remove ENOENT from the list of possible return values
+
+open.2
+    Adam Borowski
+        No need for /proc to make an O_TMPFILE file permanent
+            In the example snippet, we already have the fd, thus there's no
+            need to refer to the file by name.  And, /proc/ might be not
+            mounted or not accessible.
+    Michael Kerrisk  [Joseph C. Sible]
+        In O_TMPFILE example, describe alternative linkat() call
+            This was already shown in an earlier version of the page,
+            but Adam Borowski's patch replaced it with an alternative.
+            Probably, it is better to show both possibilities.
+
+perf_event_open.2
+    Daniel Colascione
+        Mention EINTR for perf_event_open
+
+ptrace.2
+    Denys Vlasenko
+        PTRACE_EVENT_STOP does not always report SIGTRAP
+
+quotactl.2
+    Michael Kerrisk
+        Don't show numeric values of Q_XQUOTAON XFS_QUOTA_?DQ_* flags
+            The programmer should not need to care about the numeric values,
+            and their inclusion is verbosity.
+    Yang Xu  [Michael Kerrisk]
+        Add EINVAL error of Q_XQUOTARM operation
+
+stime.2
+    Michael Kerrisk
+        Note that stime() is deprecated
+
+syscall.2
+    Petr Vorel  [Cyril Hrubis]
+        Update feature test macro requirements
+
+sysctl.2
+    Michael Kerrisk
+        This system call was removed in Linux 5.5; adjust the page accordingly
+
+userfaultfd.2
+    Yang Xu  [Michael Kerrisk]
+        Add EPERM error
+
+cmsg.3
+    Rich Felker
+        Clarify alignment issues and correct method of accessing CMSG_DATA()
+            From an email by Rich Felker:
+
+            It came to my attention while reviewing possible breakage with
+            move to 64-bit time_t that some applications are dereferencing
+            data in socket control messages (particularly SCM_TIMESTAMP*)
+            in-place as the message type, rather than memcpy'ing it to
+            appropriate storage. This necessarily does not work and is not
+            supportable if the message contains data with greater alignment
+            requirement than the header. In particular, on 32-bit archs,
+            cmsghdr has size 12 and alignment 4, but struct timeval and
+            timespec may have alignment requirement 8.
+    Michael Kerrisk  [Rich Felker]
+        Modify CMSG_DATA() example to use memcpy()
+            See previous patch to this page for rationale
+
+exit.3
+    Benjamin Peterson  [Mike Frysinger]
+        Use hex for the status mask
+
+ftime.3
+    Michael Kerrisk
+        Note that this function is deprecated
+
+getpt.3
+    Samuel Thibault
+        Remove mention of O_NOCTTY
+            The glibc implementation of getpt has actually never been setting
+
+malloc.3
+    Vegard Nossum
+        Clarify realloc() return value
+    Petr Vorel
+        Remove duplicate _GNU_SOURCE
+
+console_codes.4
+    Adam Borowski
+        Document \e[90m to 97, 100 to 107
+    Adam Borowski
+        \e[21m is now underline
+            Since 65d9982d7e523a1a8e7c9af012da0d166f72fc56 (4.17), it follows
+            xterm rather than common sense and consistency, being the only
+            command 1..9 where N+20 doesn't undo what N did.  As libvte
+            0.51.90 got changed the same way, this behaviour will probably
+            stay.
+    Adam Borowski
+        Update \e[38m and \e[48m
+            Supported since cec5b2a97a11ade56a701e83044d0a2a984c67b4 (3.16).
+
+cgroups.7
+    Michael Kerrisk
+        The v2 freezer controller was added in Linux 5.2
+    Michael Kerrisk
+        Split discussion of cgroups.events file and v2 release notification
+            In preparation for adding a description of the "frozen" key.
+    Michael Kerrisk
+        Describe the cgroup.events "frozen" key
+    Michael Kerrisk
+        Improve the discussion of the advantages of v2 release notification
+
+inotify.7
+    Nick Shipp
+        Merge late perror() into fprintf() in example code
+
+netlink.7
+    Antonin Décimo
+        Fix alignment issue in example
+
+packet.7
+    kevin sztern  [Michael Kerrisk]
+        Add missing tpacket_auxdata field (tp_vlan_tpid)
+
+rtnetlink.7
+    Antonin Décimo
+        ifa_index is an unsigned int
+
+tcp.7
+    Michael Kerrisk
+        tcp_low_latency is ignored since Linux 4.14
+
+unix.7
+    Michael Kerrisk
+        The PID sent with SCM_CREDENTIALS must match an existing process
+
+vsock.7
+    Mikhail Golubev  [Michael Kerrisk]
+        Add missing structure element
+            The structure 'struct sockaddr_vm' has additional element
+            'unsigned char svm_zero[]' since version v3.9-rc1.
+
+ldconfig.8
+    DJ Delorie
+        Document file filter and symlink pattern expectations
