  72 New and rewritten pages
  73 -----------------------
  74
  75 get_phys_pages.3
  76     William Woodruff
  77         Document get_phys_pages() and get_avphys_pages()
  78
  79 loop.4
  80     Urs Thuermann, Michael Kerrisk
  81         New page documenting the loop device
  82
  83 xattr.7
  84     Andreas Gruenbacher
  85         Import attr(5) man page from the 'attr' project
  86             After discussions with Andreas Gruenbacher, it makes sense to
  87             move this page into man-pages, since it mostly relates to
  88             kernel details. Since this is an overview page,
  89             we'll move it to Section 7.
  90     Michael Kerrisk
  91          Rename page
  92             "xattr" is a more meaningful name than "attr" (it resonates
  93             with the names of the system calls), so as long as we are
  94             moving the page to a new section, we'll change the name as well,
  95             and retain an acl(5) link so that old references remain valid.

 237
 238 mmap.2
 239     Michael Kerrisk
 240         Remove text that implies that munmap() syncs MAP_SHARED mapping to file
 241             The existing text in this page:
 242
 243                    MAP_SHARED Share  this  mapping.   Updates to the mapping
 244                               are visible to other processes that  map  this
 245                               file,  and are carried through to the underly‐
 246                               ing  file.   The  file  may  not  actually  be
 247                               updated until msync(2) or munmap() is called.
 248
 249             implies that munmap() will sync the mapping to the underlying
 250             file. POSIX doesn't require this, and some light reading of the
 251             code and some light testing (fsync() after munmap() of a large
 252             file) also indicates that Linux doesn't do this.
 253
 254 msync.2
 255     Michael Kerrisk
 256         Rework text of DESCRIPTION
 257             Rewrite the text somewhat, for easier comprehension.

 265     Michael Kerrisk  [Andreas Gruenbacher]
 266         open() honors the S_ISVTX, S_ISUID, and S_ISGID bits in 'mode'
 267     Michael Kerrisk
 268         Tighten wording: use 'mode bit' rather than 'permission bit'
 269     Michael Kerrisk  [NeilBrown]
 270         BUGS: O_CREAT | O_DIRECTORY succeeds if pathname does not exist
 271
 272 poll.2
 273     Michael Kerrisk  [Ian Pilcher]
 274         Clarify that signal mask treatment in ppoll() is per-thread
 275             s/sigprocmask()/pthread_sigmask()/

 284             See https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43300
 285

 287     Michael Kerrisk  [Jason Newton]

 293     Michael Kerrisk  [Askar Safin]

 313         Remove excessive leading zeros on some constants
 314     Michael Kerrisk
 315         Add text on POSIX terms "file mode bits" and "file permission bits"
 316             Recent changes to various pages employ this distinction.
 317     Michael Kerrisk
 318         Tighten wording: use 'mode bit' rather than 'permission bit'
 319             According to POSIX, the the 9 UGO*RWX bits are permissions, and
 320             'mode' is used to refer to collectively to those bits plus sticky,
 321             set-UID, and set_GID bits.

 357 CPU_SET.3
 358     Chris Metcalf
 359         Clarify language about "available" cpus
 360             The CPU_SET.3 man page uses the adjective "available" when
 361             explaining what the argument to CPU_SET() means.  This is
 362             confusing, since "available" isn't well-defined.  The kernel
 363             has a set of adjectives (possible, present, online, and active)
 364             that qualify cpus, but normally none of these are what the
 365             cpu_set_t bit index means: it's just "which cpu", using the
 366             kernel's internal numbering system, even if that cpu isn't
 367             possible or present.
 368
 369             This change removes the word "available" and adds a sentence
 370             warning that cpu sets may not be contiguous due to dynamic
 371             cpu hotplug, etc.

 524         Document VFS-imposed limits on EAs
 525             VFS imposes a 255-byte limit on EA names, and a 64kB limit on
 526             EA values.
 527     Michael Kerrisk
 528         The ext[234] block limitation applies to sum of all EAs
 529             It is not a per-EA limit.

 553         Summary of multiple changes: remove cruft from this page.
 554             Much of the detail on hardware specifics in this page dates
 555             from the 20th century. (The last major update to this page was in
 556             man-pages-1.14!) It's hugely out of date now (many of these
 557             devices disappeared from the kernel years ago.) So, I've taken
 558             a large scythe to the page to remove anything that looks
 559             seriously dated. In the process, the page has shrunk to less
 560             than 50% of its previous size.
 561     Michael Kerrisk
 562         Remove "buff=" details
 563             This seems to have gone away in Linux 2.2.
 564     Michael Kerrisk
 565         Remove crufty "Mouse drivers" options
 566     Michael Kerrisk
 567         Remove crufty "General non-device-specific boot arguments" options
 568     Michael Kerrisk
 569         Remove crufty "Hard disks" options
 570     Michael Kerrisk
 571         Remove crufty "mem=" details
 572     Michael Kerrisk
 573         Remove crufty details on IBM MCA bus devices
 574     Michael Kerrisk
 575         Remove 'swap=" details
 576             This seems to have gone away in Linux 2.2,
 577     Michael Kerrisk
 578         Remove crufty floppy disk driver options
 579             In the specific case of floppy drives: the drivers still
 580             exist, but it's been a while since most of saw these devices
 581             in the wild. So, just refer the reader to the kernel source
 582             file for details. (The detail in this man page was after all
 583             originally drawn from that file.)
 584         Remove crufty "ISDN drivers" options
 585     Michael Kerrisk
 586         Remove crufty "line printer driver" options
 587     Michael Kerrisk
 588         Remove crufty "Serial port drivers" options
 589     Michael Kerrisk
 590         Remove crufty reference to CONFIG_BUGi386
 591             That option disappeared in Linux 2.4.
 592     Michael Kerrisk
 593         Remove crufty text
 594             "bootsetups array" dates from Linux 2.0.
 595     Michael Kerrisk
 596         Remove crufty "Video hardware" options
 597     Michael Kerrisk
 598         Remove crufty SCSI device driver options

 611     Michael Kerrisk  [Jiri Pirko, Magnus REFTEL]
 612         Clarify details of the IP_MULTICAST_IF socket option
 613     Michael Kerrisk  [Advait Dixi]

 615             See https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35852
 616     Michael Kerrisk
 617         Relocate misplaced text describing ENOPROTOOPT error
 618
 619 packet.7
 620     Graham Shaw
 621         Add sll_protocol to list of required fields for outbound packets
 622
 623 pthreads.7
 624     Michael Kerrisk  [KOSAKI Motohiro]
 625         Using thread IDs whose lifetime has expired gives undefined behavior
 626             See https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53061
 627
 628 raw.7
 629     Michael Kerrisk  [Tetsuo Handa]
 630         For incoming datagrams, sin_port is set to zero
 631     Michael Kerrisk
 632         Mention sendto(), recvfrom(), and so on when discussing address format
 633             This gives the reader a little context for the following
 634             discussion of 'sin_port'.
 635     Michael Kerrisk
 636         Remove crufty reference to <netinet/in.h>
 637     Michael Kerrisk
 638         Replace reference to RFC 1700 with pointer to IANA protocol number list
 639

 643             See https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=97721
 644
 645 unix.7
 646     Michael Kerrisk  [Christophe Lohr]
 647         Remove mention of UNIX_PATH_MAX
 648             This kernel constant is not exposed to user space.
 649     Michael Kerrisk
 650         Note the 108 bytes for sun_path is how things are done on Linux
 651             And refer the reader to NOTES for discussion of portability.
 652
 653
 654 xattr.7
 655     Michael Kerrisk
 656         Explicitly mention some of the xattr system calls in DESCRIPTION
 657             Naming the system calls helps to orient the reader
 658
 659 nscd.8
 660     Michael Kerrisk
 661         Add mention of 'services' and 'netgroup' databases
 662             This makes the page consistent with nscd.conf(5).
