| * | man/, share/mk/: Move man*/ to man/ | Alejandro Colomar | 2024-05-02 | -51/+1 |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a scripted change: $ mkdir man/; $ mv man* man/; $ ln -st . man/man*; $ find share/mk/ -type f \ | xargs grep -l '^MANDIR *:=' \ | xargs sed -i '/^MANDIR *:=/s,$,/man,'; $ find share/mk/dist/ -type f \ | xargs grep -l man \ | xargs sed -i 's,man%,man/%,g'; Link: <https://lore.kernel.org/linux-man/YxcV4h+Xn7cd6+q2@pevik/T/> Cc: Petr Vorel <pvorel@suse.cz> Cc: Jakub Wilk <jwilk@jwilk.net> Cc: Stefan Puiu <stefan.puiu@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Alejandro Colomar <alx@kernel.org> | |||
| * | man*/: srcfix (Use .P instead of .PP or .LP) | Alejandro Colomar | 2023-10-31 | -2/+2 |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We're trying to "standardize" on a paragraphing macro from the three equivalent ones (P, PP, LP). We (somewhat arbitrarily) agreed on P. Scripted change: $ find man* -type f | xargs sed -i '/\.PP/s/PP/P/' $ find man* -type f | xargs sed -i '/\.LP/s/LP/P/' Suggested-by: "G.

| * | man*/, man-pages.7: VERSIONS, STANDARDS, HISTORY: Reorganize sections | Alejandro Colomar | 2023-03-30 | -1/+1 |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - Add a new HISTORY section that covers the history of an API, both regarding implementations and regarding old standards. This was previously covered in VERSIONS, and in some cases in STANDARDS. - Repurpose VERSIONS to cover differing implementations in _current_ systems. - STANDARDS is reduced to only cover current versions of standards. That basically means only C11 (C99 has been superseeded by C11; C17 is just a bugfix of C11, so not really a new version), and POSIX.1-2008 (*-2001 was superseeded by *-2008; *-2017 was just a bugfix for *-2008). The section also mentions for example 'Linux', 'GNU' or 'BSD' when a non-standard API is Linux- or GNU-only or if it's (de-facto) standard in the BSDs. - In some cases content that should go into one of these sections was in NOTES. Move it from there to where it corresponds. - In the SYNOPSIS, I added [[deprecated]] in some functions that I found are deprecated by the relevant standards. - A few other related changes...

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Replace the date by a placeholder (date) in the repo, as we're doing with the version (unreleased). It will be filled when the tarball is generated with 'make dist' (or equivalent) with the date of the most recent git commit that modifies the page (as was done previously by update_timestamps.sh, which has been removed).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | Enclose struct/union definitions in EX/EE. nf/fi produces alignment issues in output devices where the font is not monospaced. EX/EE forces use of monospaced font, so it's more appropriate to format SYNOPSIS that contain structure types, where alignment is essential.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Kernel __u64 and similar types are ABI-compatible, and mostly API-compatible with ISO C types. User-space programmers don't care about kernel details, and should only use libc types. Document syscalls and structures provided by the Linux kernel as if they used libc types. There's work in the kernel to remove this small API incompatibility, which is only for pointers or printf specifiers. Since I couldn't find any structure that uses pointers, there shouldn't be any issues here. Also, the only pointer I found was in a syscall parameter, but since syscall(2) doesn't check its arguments' types, we're also safe there. This patch doesn't go without controversy. Check the discussions in the links below.

| * | Many pages: Use man3type/ and man2type/ for type pages | Alejandro Colomar | 2022-07-21 | -0/+51 |
| Quoting Ingo: [ The mandoc(1) program is also able to handle paths like "man3/id_t.3type". It will consider that page to be *both* in section "3" (as specified by the directory name) and in section "3type" (as specified by the file name and by the .TH macro). I would consider it better style to keep section names consistent, i.e. to use either "man3/id_t.3" .TH id_t 3 or "man3type/id_t.3type" .TH id_t 3type, but it's not a big deal: since many systems (in particular various Linux distros) suffer from such inconsistencies, handling such inconsistencies gracefully is an important feature that certainly won't get removed. ] Let's be nice, and do things right here, in the hope that others may follow the example. === Most of this patch has been scripted: $ mkdir man2type man3type $ find man2 | grep type$ | while read f; do mv -t man2type $f; done $ find man3 | grep type$ | while read f; do mv -t man3type $f; done $ grep -rl man3/.*type man* | xargs sed -i 's,man3/,man3type/,' Apart from that, I adapted the Makefiles, and moved va_list into the man3type subsection (it was accidentally placed in the main 3 section).
