+ Document /proc/sys/vm/unprivileged_userfaultfd
Changes to individual pages
---------------------------
+capget.2
+ Michael Kerrisk [Yang Xu]
+ Add missing details in EPERM error for setting inheritable capabilities
+
+clone.2
+ Michael Kerrisk
+ Note that CLONE_THREAD causes similar behavior to CLONE_PARENT
+ The introductory paragraphs note that "the calling process" is
+ normally synonymous with the "the parent process", except in the
+ case of CLONE_PARENT. The same is also true of CLONE_THREAD.
+ Christian Brauner [Michael Kerrisk]
+ Mention that CLONE_PARENT is off-limits for inits
+ Michael Kerrisk [Colin Ian King]
+ Add old EINVAL error for AArch64
+ Michael Kerrisk
+ ERRORS: add EINVAL for use of CLONE_PARENT by an init process
+
+futex.2
+ Ponnuvel Palaniyappan
+ Fix a bug in the example
+
+listen.2
+ Michael Kerrisk [Peter Gajdos]
+ The 'somaxconn' default value has increased to 4096
+
+modify_ldt.2
+set_thread_area.2
+ Andy Lutomirski [Markus T Metzger]
+ Fix type of base_addr
+
+move_pages.2
+ John Hubbard [Michal Hocko]
+ Remove ENOENT from the list of possible return values
+
+open.2
+ Adam Borowski
+ No need for /proc to make an O_TMPFILE file permanent
+ In the example snippet, we already have the fd, thus there's no
+ need to refer to the file by name. And, /proc/ might be not
+ mounted or not accessible.
+ Michael Kerrisk [Joseph C. Sible]
+ In O_TMPFILE example, describe alternative linkat() call
+ This was already shown in an earlier version of the page,
+ but Adam Borowski's patch replaced it with an alternative.
+ Probably, it is better to show both possibilities.
+
+perf_event_open.2
+ Daniel Colascione
+ Mention EINTR for perf_event_open
+
+ptrace.2
+ Denys Vlasenko
+ PTRACE_EVENT_STOP does not always report SIGTRAP
+
+quotactl.2
+ Michael Kerrisk
+ Don't show numeric values of Q_XQUOTAON XFS_QUOTA_?DQ_* flags
+ The programmer should not need to care about the numeric values,
+ and their inclusion is verbosity.
+ Yang Xu [Michael Kerrisk]
+ Add EINVAL error of Q_XQUOTARM operation
+
+stime.2
+ Michael Kerrisk
+ Note that stime() is deprecated
+
+syscall.2
+ Petr Vorel [Cyril Hrubis]
+ Update feature test macro requirements
+
+sysctl.2
+ Michael Kerrisk
+ This system call was removed in Linux 5.5; adjust the page accordingly
+
+userfaultfd.2
+ Yang Xu [Michael Kerrisk]
+ Add EPERM error
+
+cmsg.3
+ Rich Felker
+ Clarify alignment issues and correct method of accessing CMSG_DATA()
+ From an email by Rich Felker:
+
+ It came to my attention while reviewing possible breakage with
+ move to 64-bit time_t that some applications are dereferencing
+ data in socket control messages (particularly SCM_TIMESTAMP*)
+ in-place as the message type, rather than memcpy'ing it to
+ appropriate storage. This necessarily does not work and is not
+ supportable if the message contains data with greater alignment
+ requirement than the header. In particular, on 32-bit archs,
+ cmsghdr has size 12 and alignment 4, but struct timeval and
+ timespec may have alignment requirement 8.
+ Michael Kerrisk [Rich Felker]
+ Modify CMSG_DATA() example to use memcpy()
+ See previous patch to this page for rationale
+
+exit.3
+ Benjamin Peterson [Mike Frysinger]
+ Use hex for the status mask
+
+ftime.3
+ Michael Kerrisk
+ Note that this function is deprecated
+
+getpt.3
+ Samuel Thibault
+ Remove mention of O_NOCTTY
+ The glibc implementation of getpt has actually never been setting
+
+malloc.3
+ Vegard Nossum
+ Clarify realloc() return value
+ Petr Vorel
+ Remove duplicate _GNU_SOURCE
+
+console_codes.4
+ Adam Borowski
+ Document \e[90m to 97, 100 to 107
+ Adam Borowski
+ \e[21m is now underline
+ Since 65d9982d7e523a1a8e7c9af012da0d166f72fc56 (4.17), it follows
+ xterm rather than common sense and consistency, being the only
+ command 1..9 where N+20 doesn't undo what N did. As libvte
+ 0.51.90 got changed the same way, this behaviour will probably
+ stay.
+ Adam Borowski
+ Update \e[38m and \e[48m
+ Supported since cec5b2a97a11ade56a701e83044d0a2a984c67b4 (3.16).
+
+cgroups.7
+ Michael Kerrisk
+ The v2 freezer controller was added in Linux 5.2
+ Michael Kerrisk
+ Split discussion of cgroups.events file and v2 release notification
+ In preparation for adding a description of the "frozen" key.
+ Michael Kerrisk
+ Describe the cgroup.events "frozen" key
+ Michael Kerrisk
+ Improve the discussion of the advantages of v2 release notification
+
+inotify.7
+ Nick Shipp
+ Merge late perror() into fprintf() in example code
+
+netlink.7
+ Antonin Décimo
+ Fix alignment issue in example
+
+packet.7
+ kevin sztern [Michael Kerrisk]

+
+rtnetlink.7
+ Antonin Décimo
+ ifa_index is an unsigned int
+
+tcp.7
+ Michael Kerrisk
+ tcp_low_latency is ignored since Linux 4.14
+
+unix.7
+ Michael Kerrisk
+ The PID sent with SCM_CREDENTIALS must match an existing process

+vsock.7
+ Mikhail Golubev [Michael Kerrisk]

+ 'unsigned char svm_zero[]' since version v3.9-rc1.
+
+ldconfig.8
+ DJ Delorie
+ Document file filter and symlink pattern expectations
