Changes to individual pages
---------------------------
-clone.2
- Michael Kerrisk
- Move some CLONE_NEWNET text to namespaces.7
- Michael Kerrisk
- Move some CLONE_NEWUTS text 2 to namespaces.7

-
-flock.2
- Michael Kerrisk [J. Bruce Fields]
- Don't mention "classical BSD" in discussion of fcntl()/flock interaction
- The noninteraction of flock(2) and fcntl(2) locks does
- not seem to be classical BSD semantics (at least, checking
- the 4.4BSD sources suggest that the lock types do interact,
- although there have been other systems also where fcntl()
- and flock() locks do not interact). So, fix the text
- discussing "classical BSD" lock semantics.
-
