Global changes
--------------
+- Man dirs:
+
+ - Move definitions of types to separate pages in man2type/ and
+ man3type/. Previously, they were spreaded (and duplicated) in other
+ pages, or in system_data_types.7 (with links in man3/).
+
+ - Add man3head/ for pages that document header files.
+
+ - Add man3const/ for pages that document constants.
+
+- Licenses:
+
+ - Use SPDX-License-Indentiffier for licenses specified by SPDX
+ (including the newly-added Linux-man-pages-copyleft). This reduces
+ the overhead text at the top of most manual page source files.
+ License texts have been moved to LICENSES/.
+
+- Build system:
+
+ - Add several make(1) targets to lint the manual pages, and also lint
+ and build the C programs contained in them. Use of these targets
+ requires unreleased versions of software, such as groff-1.23.0, so
+ it's not yet intended to be used by the public.
+
+ - Add targets to build tarballs of the repository.
+
+- man(7) source:
+
+ - Improve consistency of man(7) source. Also, reduce the number of
+ warnings that groff(1) and mandoc(7) emit when parsing the pages
+ with the highest warning level. Most of these fixes were found
+ thanks to the new `make lint-man` target.
+
+- Manual pages sections:
+
+ - Title (.TH):
+
+ - Remove 5th argument to TH (middle-header).
+
+ - Specify "Linux man-pages" and the version in the 4th argument
+ (left-footer).
+
+ - Add the LIBRARY section. This section standardizes a way to
+ document the library that provides a given interface.
+
+ - Add the CAVEATS section. BUGS and NOTES were serving that purpose
+ before, but CAVEATS is more appropriate.
+
+ - Rename the CONFORMING TO section to STANDARDS for consistency with
+ other projects, such as the BSDs.
+
+ - SYNOPSIS: Add the ISO C2X [[deprecated]] attribute for functions
+ that have been deprecated or removed.
+
+ - EXAMPLES: Improve consistency of C source code. Also, reduce the
+ number of warnings that several linting tools emit.
+
+ - COLOPHON: Remove section (its purpose is now served by the title).
+
+- Repository:
+
+ - CONTRIBUTING, README, INSTALL: Document important changes in the
+ project organization.
+
