Global changes

  • Use correct letter case in manual page titles, instead of uppercase.
  • Use \" t comments when appropriate (Lintian needs this).
  • SYNOPSIS:
  • Add _Nullable for functions that receive NULL as a meaningful input.
  • Use VLA syntax to clarify the meaning of size parameters, rather than hiding it in possibly-confusing text. This syntax is not accepted by any compilers, though.
  • Use noreturn instead of noreturn, which will be deprecated

Changes to individual pages

copy_file_range.2

  • Fix wrong kernel version information

process_madvise.2

  • Fix capability and ptrace requirements

madvise.2

  • Update Transparent Huge Pages file/shmem documentation for Linux 5.4+.
