makedev.3
Mike Frysinger
Use <sys/sysmacros.h> in SYNOPSIS
Defining these functions via <sys/types.h> causes problems for
some folk. As noted by Zack Wein:
libstdc++ force-enables _GNU_SOURCE, which means people
writing in C++ _can't_ avoid these nonstandard macros by
using a strict conformance mode.
Since glibc has basically always used <sys/sysmacros.h>,
update the docs to have people include that instead.
Michael Kerrisk
NOTES: mention that <sys/types.h> may also define these macros
popen.3
Nikola Forró
RETURN VALUE: describe successful case
Reference:
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/popen.html
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/pclose.html
strtod.3
Michael Kerrisk [Ed Avis]
Improve a detail in RETURN VALUE
core.5
Michael Kerrisk
Document /proc/sys/kernel/core_pipe_limit
locale.5
Marko Myllynen
Adjust LC_IDENTIFICATION / abbreviation
Tiny tweak to locale.5 based on the on ISO/IEC TR 14652:
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/SC22/WG20/docs/n972-14652ft.pdf
Marko Myllynen
Update LC_ADDRESS after glibc change
This patch updates locale.5 to match the recent glibc change
in commit a837257199ffab76237385b830cc7b6179fc2f18
Marko Myllynen
Complete LC_COLLATE
Here's the first attempt to (almost) complete the locale.5 manual
page by documenting all (but perhaps one) of the missing
LC_COLLATE keywords.
Mike Frysinger
country_car: Add a better description
nsswitch.conf.5
Marko Myllynen
Document group merging
Document the recently merged glibc group merge support.
Glibc commit ced8f8933673f4efda1d666d26a1a949602035ed
https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Proposals/GroupMerging

cpuset.7
Michael Kerrisk
SEE ALSO: add cgroups(7)
ip.7
Benjamin Poirier
Fix incorrect sockopt name
"IP_LEAVE_GROUP" does not exist. It was perhaps a confusion with
MCAST_LEAVE_GROUP. Change the text to IP_DROP_MEMBERSHIP which has
the same function as MCAST_LEAVE_GROUP and is documented in the
ip.7 man page.
Reference:
Linux kernel net/ipv4/ip_sockglue.c do_ip_setsockopt()
Cc: Radek Pazdera <rpazdera@redhat.com>
namespaces.7
Michael Kerrisk
Add /proc/PID/mountinfo discussion under cgroup namespaces
The discussion here is contingent on the acceptance of
Serge Hallyn's patch, "mountinfo: implement show_path
for kernfs and cgroup".
Michael Kerrisk
SEE ALSO: add cgroups(7), cgroup_namespaces(7)
vdso.7
Zubair Lutfullah Kakakhel [Mike Frysinger]
Update for MIPS
Document the symbols exported by the MIPS VDSO.
VDSO support was added from kernel 4.4 onwards.
See https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/log/arch/mips/vdso
Michael Kerrisk [Rasmus Villemoes]
The __kernel_clock_* interfaces don't support *_COARSE clocks on PowerPC
ld.so.8
