# 1.32 28-Jun-2022 rillig

bind.2: add references to specific protocol families

Referring the reader to "the manual entries in section 4" was too
unspecific to be useful, as that section contains device drivers as
well.

# 1.26 10-Sep-2005 wiz

Remove unnecessary parentheses. Add comma in enumeration.


# 1.25 30-Aug-2005 jmmv

Document that binding local sockets now honors the user's umask, why this
was done and that this behavior is not supposed to be portable. Filling
under the security considerations section because code not following the
guidelines given here can be "less secure".

Move UCB-licensed code from 4-clause to 3-clause licence.

Patches provided by Joel Baker in PR 22280, verified by myself.


# 1.22 16-Apr-2003 wiz

.In header.h

Okayed by ross.

# 1.14 02-Dec-1999 kleink

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.

# 1.12 22-Mar-1999 garbled

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!


# 1.11 10-Feb-1999 kleink

Reflect the addition of socklen_t.


# 1.10 29-Aug-1998 lukem

first pass at fixing up capitalization of function names and
arguments; ensure that each is correct with respect to the
implementation, rather than being correct as per english.


# 1.9 28-Apr-1998 fair

Change occurrences of "UNIX" to .Ux or .At as appropriate.

# 1.6 22-Apr-1994 jtc

Remove description of EINVAL, "The pathname contains a character with the
high-order bit set", as this error is obsolete.

Eventually we may want to add code to some of the "optional" filesystems
(msdosfs, etc.) that checks for illegal characters. At that time it would
be appropriate to reintroduce this error with appropriate text. Perhaps
"The pathname contains a character that is not valid for filesystem type".


# 1.5 19-Apr-1994 jtc

Use symbolic names {NAME_MAX} & {PATH_MAX} instead of 255 and 1023 in
description of ENAMETOOLONG error.


# 1.4 29-Nov-1993 jtc

Use "Er" for argument to -width in the lists in the ERROR sections --- so
the formatting is consistant.


# 1.3 25-Nov-1993 jtc

Clean up manpages:
Use .Fn rather than .Nm macro in HISTORY and STANDARDS sections.
Use .At and .St macros instead of spelling out "Version 6 UNIX",
"IEEE 1003.1-1988 (POSIX)", etc.


# 1.2 01-Aug-1993 mycroft
