2022-01-12manual: Drop obsolete @refillSiddhesh Poyarekar1-1/+1
The @refill command has been obsolete for a while and now texinfo has started warning about it. Reviewed-by: Florian Weimer <fweimer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Siddhesh Poyarekar <siddhesh@sourceware.org>
2019-01-07manual: Use @code{errno} instead of @var{errno} [BZ #24063]Florian Weimer1-2/+2
@var is intended for placeholders (such as function parameters). Actual variables need to use @code because @var causes upper-case output, resulting in a different C identifier.
2017-08-08manual: Document getcontext uc_stack value on Linux [BZ #759]Adhemerval Zanella1-0/+5
As decribed in BZ#759, Linux getcontext implementation on Linux does differs from other SysV system about the returned uc_stack. This is true not only for i386, but for all the architecture I could actually check (aarch64, arm, alpha, hppa, m68k, mips, mips64, mips64n32, powerpc, powerpc64, powerpc64le, s390x, sh, sparc, sparc64, and x86). And I think we should not change current behavior for some reasons: 1. POSIX 2008 removed this SySV interface for a good reason and changing this behavior adds nothing for current portable code. POSIX 2001 specification does states that stack should be saved [1] and current GLIBC code does in a arch-specific manner (inside the mcontext_t) which allows the setcontext to work correctly. 2. Changing this behavior would potentially require compat symbols and I see no gain in adding compat symbols for deprecated interfaces. 3. Also, for comment #2 in BZ#759, it is up to kernel do setup the contents for ucontext_t and currently it does not provide the stack information as well. Trying to change it is also another fix that does not worth the possible gains. Instead my proposal is to make it clear the current interface may differ depending of the underlying operational system. glibc documentation and close this bug as invalid.

2017-06-15manual: Replace summary.awk with summary.pl.Rical Jasan1-22/+11
The Summary is now generated from @standards, and syntax-checking is performed. If invalid @standards syntax is detected, summary.pl will fail, reporting all errors. Failure and error reporting is disabled for now, however, since much of the manual is still incomplete wrt. header and standards annotations. Note that the sorting order of the Summary has changed; summary.pl respects the locale, like summary.awk did, but the use of LC_ALL=C is introduced in the Makefile. Other notable deviations are improved detection of the annotated elements' names, which are used for sorting, and improved detection of the @node used to reference into the manual. The most noticeable difference in the rendered Summary is that entries may now contain multiple lines, one for each header and standard combination. summary.pl accepts a `--help' option, which details the expected syntax of @standards. If errors are reported, the user is directed to this feature for further information. * manual/Makefile: Generate summary.texi with summary.pl. Force use of the C locale. Update Perl dependency comment. * manual/header.texi: Update reference to summary.awk. * manual/macros.texi: Refer authors to `summary.pl --help'. * manual/summary.awk: Remove file. * manual/summary.pl: New file.

2014-04-17manual/setjmp.texi: Clarify setcontext and signal handlers textWill Newton1-8/+11
Calling setcontext from a signal handler can be done safely so it is sufficient to note that it is not recommended. Also mention in setcontext documentation that the behaviour of setcontext when restoring a context created by a call to a signal handler is unspecified. 2014-04-17 Will Newton <will.newton@linaro.org> * manual/setjmp.texi (System V contexts): Add note that calling setcontext on a context created by a call to a signal handler is undefined. Update text to note that setcontext from a signal handler is possible but not recommended.
