From d5048aca8d9d7f31ecd8b8279ea20cfbbf80e59f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bagas Sanjaya Date: Thu, 8 May 2025 07:58:39 +0700 Subject: [PATCH] Documentation: ioctl-number: Update table intro Introduction paragraph to the ioctl numbers table states that only ioctls in up to ancient Linux kernel version (v2.6.31) for x86 arch are listed. This is inaccurate as the table also lists ioctls from non-x86 archs and the kernel is continously developed (currently in v6.x). Update the paragraph accordingly.
