Subject: clone.2: Change types for 'ptid' and 'ctid' in syscall prototypes
X-Git-Tag: man-pages-4.08~66
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=fda554706b3a27fb221f8f10f93d0f3f47e7142b;p=thirdparty%2Fman-pages.git

clone.2: Change types for 'ptid' and 'ctid' in syscall prototypes

These types changed from 'void *' to 'int *' back in Linux 3.8.
The new types are closer to reality, so just update the page
without discussing the history.
