Move all the reference manuals to subdirs of /usr/share/doc/reference.
We have subdirs ref1-ref9, corresponding to man page sections 1-9.
Everything that's the reference manual for a program (sections 1, 6,
8), C interface (sections 2, 3), driver or file system (section 4),
format or configuration (section 5), or kernel internal interface
(section 9) belongs in here.
Section 7 is a little less clear: some things that might go in section
7 if they were a man page aren't really reference manuals. So I'm only
putting things in reference section 7 that are (to me) clearly
reference material, rather than e.g. tutorials, guides, FAQs, etc.
This obviously leaves some room for debate, especially without first
editing the docs with this distinction in mind, but if people hate
what I've done things can always be moved again.
Note also that while roff macro man pages traditionally go in section
7, I have put all the roff documentation (macros, tools, etc.) in one
place in reference/ref1/roff. This will make it easier to find and
also easier to edit it into some kind of coherent form.
it gets signal 9, which prints "Killed" -- that this is actually
signal 9 and not a generic message is never clear and causes people to
file PRs unnecessarily.
Suggested by followups to PR 44096.
I applied this to gcc 4.5 ages ago, but this copy has been sitting
around in one of my trees for even longer and it may as well get
committed too.
Extentions (clang already defines them):
__ARM_PCS is defined to 1 if the default procedure calling standard for
the translation unit conforms to the "base PCS" defined in [AAPCS].
__ARM_PCS_VFP is defined to 1 if the default is to pass floating-point
parameters in hardware floating-point registers using the "VFP variant PCS"
defined in [AAPCS].
gcc: avoid generating negative values to DW_AT_byte_size.
There is a bug in gcc (GCC/35998) where dwarf reports
sizes of unsigned -1 (0xffffffff).
On NetBSD this generated a faulty CTF entry which then
caused a segfault in ctfmerge. The issue was worked
around in NetBSD's Dtrace but since the issue originated
in gcc, it seems reasonable to fix it here.
Thanks to Christoph Mallon for pointing out a correct fix.
This should fix the bug described in CVE-2012-5667 when an input
line is so long that its length cannot be stored in an int
variable.
This change to NetBSD's version of GNU grep 2.5.1 (licenced under
GPLv2) was made without direct reference to any code licenced
under GPLv3.
Thanks to Ignatios Souvatzis for looking at GPLv3-derived
patches and describing the problem in general terms. Thanks to
pkgsrc/devel/coccinelle for helping me find places where int
variables were used to store the results from pointer arithmetic
or strlen(). Thanks to Martin Husemann for testing.
the TOOLDIR version of libnbcompat, associated include files,
and associated defs.mk file, instead of the version from the
.OBJDIR of src/tools/compat. This should fix PR 47188.
