wiz 472351e13d Use
.In header.h
instead of
.Fd #include \*[Lt]header.h\*[Gt]
Much easier to read and write, and supported by groff for ages.
Okayed by ross.

fvdl bfb0ad4a93 Clarify that page alignment only happens for the internal, kernel notion
of the break value.

kleink 15be242b3a Add a LIBRARY section to system call manual pages. While it's clear that the
libraries contain stubs only (with minor exceptions a la pipe(2)), the purpose
of this section is to provide linkage information.

is b9243cdc97 repair edito in BUGS session. 1999-08-16 14:10:06 +00:00
perry 72ec01bc0e Restore some information about the page rounding behavior of these
functions, with a little bit of a caution that the page rounding
behavior isn't mentioned in standards documents that mention brk/sbrk.
Klaus removed this before, but I'm not sure why, and I've been unable
to reach him about the matter after trying for several days. The
information about the behavior has always been in the page and is
important for developers to know about.

perry 0c91d3d222 Note that you can find out the system page size with sysconf(3). 1999-07-09 14:41:26 +00:00
perry f31cd6341c note in BUGS that the prototype of our sbrk is not standards compliant
and will need fixing.

perry eeebdec53e Clean up this mess a lot. I believe we still have the following
issues (at least):

1) sbrk is defined as returning char *, which violates XPG
2) I'm not clear on what happens if you try to sbrk() on a negative
incr that is less than the page size. I'm guessing "nothing", but we
should document this behavior.
3) XPG says some interesting things about whether new pages are
guaranteed zeroed. We say nothing about this. We should document our
behavior.
4) It isn't clear if *we* guarantee that malloc and sbrk can be mixed
in our API (I've documented that it isn't universally portable.)

We really should clean these up, too.

garbled 38c96853cf Last of the .Os cleanups. .Os is defined in the tmac.doc-common file,
so we shouldn't override it with versions in the manpages.  Wheee!

kleink 1f173d29a8 Fix a .Fa vs. .Fn bogon, and clarify somewhat. 1999-03-09 20:35:18 +00:00
kleink e2a4add9f7 brk(2) actually returns an int indicating success (0) or failure (-1). Also,
change its argument to void *.  (Both XSH5).
