+
+
+Changes to individual pages
+---------------------------
+
+mount.2
+    Michael Kerrisk
+        SEE ALSO: add blkid(1)
+
+msgop.2
+    Michael Kerrisk
+        Document two MSG_COPY failure modes
+            Since Linux 3.14, the kernel now diagnoses two errors
+            when using msgrcv() MSG_COPY:
+            * MSG_COPY must be specified with IPC_NOWAIT
+            * MSG_COPY can't be specified with MSG_EXCEPT
+
+open.2
+    Michael Kerrisk
+        Organize some material under additional subheadings in NOTES
+            There's an amorphous mass of material under NOTES.  Structure
+            it with some subheadings, and do a little reorganizing.
+    Michael Kerrisk
+        Add other system calls and functions that are like openat()
+            fanotify_mark(2), name_to_handle_at(2), and scandirat(3) have a
+            directory file descriptor argument for the same reason as openat().
+            Also: reword the rationale for the *at() functions somewhat.
+    Michael Kerrisk
+        Clarify ELOOP error interaction with O_PATH
+
+readahead.2
+    Phillip Susi  [Corrado Zoccolo, Gregory P. Smith, Zhu Yanhai, Michael Kerrisk, Christoph Hellwig]
+        Don't claim the call blocks until all data has been read
+            The readahead(2) man page was claiming that the call blocks until
+            all data has been read into the cache.  This is incorrect.
+
+            See https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54271
+
+stat.2
+    Michael Kerrisk
+        SEE ALSO: add ls(1) and stat(1)
+
+fts.3
+    Christoph Hellwig  [Michael Kerrisk]
+        The fts(3) API does not work with LFS builds
+            As pointed out during a recent discussion on libc-hacker the
+            fts(3) APIs can't be used with large file offsets:

+    Michael Kerrisk
+        Rewrite to more explicitly bring locales into the discussion
+    Michael Kerrisk
+        Retitle BUGS section to NOTES

+
+wcrtomb.3
+wcsnrtombs.3
+wcsrtombs.3

+wctomb.3

+
+feature_test_macros.7
+    Michael Kerrisk  [Joseph S. Myers]
+        Remove mention of bogus _ISOC95_SOURCE macro
+            The _ISOC95_SOURCE macro is defined in <features.h>, but it
+            does nothing. So remove discussion of it, and move some of
+            the discussion of C95 under the ISOC99_SOURCE subhead.
+    Michael Kerrisk  [Carlos O'Donell]
+        Add packaging note for _BSD_SOURCE/_SVID_SOURCE/_DEFAULT_SOURCE
+            To compile warning-free across glibc < 2.20 and glibc >= 2.20
+            code may been to define both _DEFAULT_SOURCE and either
+            _BSD_SOURCE or _SVID_SOURCE.

+        Reword description of C90
+
+locale.7
+    Michael Kerrisk
+        Add subsection on POSIX.1-2008 (originally GNU) extensions to locale API
+    Michael Kerrisk
+        Remove reference to LI18NUX2000
+            LI18NUX2000 is difficult to even find these days, and in any case
+            this page does not document gettext(), so notes about gettext()
+            in the CONFORMING TO section here make no sense.
+    Michael Kerrisk
+        SEE ALSO: add mbstowcs(3) and wcstombs(3)
+        SEE ALSO: add newlocale(3) + duplocale(3)

+man-pages.7
+    Michael Kerrisk
+        Add preferred term "superblock"
