RevisionDateAuthorComments
 1.27  15-Oct-2013  njoly Adjust needed includes for fchmodat/mkdirat/mkfifoat/mknodat/fstatat
syscalls.
 1.26  30-Jul-2013  njoly Add mkfifoat(2) specific errors.
 1.25  13-Jan-2013  dholland Revert defective O_SEARCH implementation committed by manu@ along with
the *at system calls on November 18th of last year. Reasons to revert
it include:
- it is incorrect in a whole variety of ways (but fortunately, one
of them is that the missing and improper permission checks have
no net effect);
- it was committed without review or discussion;
- core ruled that all the new O_* flags pertaining to the *at calls
needed to wait until their semantics could be clarified.

manu was asked to revert it on these grounds but has ignored the request.

I have left O_SEARCH defined and visible and made open() explicitly
ignore it. This way, most code that tries to use it will continue to
build and run. I've also arranged lib/libc/c063/t_o_search.c so that
the tests that make use of the O_SEARCH semantics will disappear until
O_SEARCH comes back, and fixed some mistakes and/or incorrect hacks
that were causing some of these to succeed despite the broken O_SEARCH
implementation.
 1.24  01-Dec-2012  wiz Bump date. New sentence, new line. Wording/articles.
Sort errors while here.
 1.23  01-Dec-2012  wiz Bump date, really.
 1.22  01-Dec-2012  wiz Bump date. New sentence, new line. Wording/articles.
Sort errors while here.
 1.21  18-Nov-2012  manu Add most system calls for POSIX extended API set, part 2, with test cases:
faccessat(2), fchmodat(2), fchownat(2), fstatat(2), mkdirat(2), mkfifoat(2),
mknodat(2), linkat(2), readlinkat(2), symlinkat(2), renameat(2), unlinkat(2),
utimensat(2), openat(2).

Also implement O_SEARCH for openat(2)

Still missing:
- some flags for openat(2)
- fexecve(2) implementation
 1.20  31-May-2010  njoly branches: 1.20.6; 1.20.12;
Consistently use `.Brq Dv XXX' across syscalls man pages, for NAME_MAX
and PATH_MAX.
 1.19  13-May-2004  wiz \- is a minus, not -.
 1.18  07-Aug-2003  agc Move UCB-licensed code from 4-clause to 3-clause licence.

Patches provided by Joel Baker in PR 22280, verified by myself.
 1.17  16-Apr-2003  wiz 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.
 1.16  18-Jan-2003  thorpej Merge the nathanw_sa branch.
 1.15  01-Oct-2002  wiz New sentence, new line. From Robert Elz.
 1.14  29-Apr-2002  simonb Remove <sys/types.h> from synopsis, as per latest SUS/Posix specs.
 1.13  08-Feb-2002  ross Generate <>& symbolically. I'm avoiding .../dist/... directories for now.
 1.12  16-Sep-2001  wiz Boring whitespace fixes.
 1.11  02-Dec-1999  kleink branches: 1.11.6;
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.
 1.10  29-Aug-1998  lukem branches: 1.10.6;
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  14-Jul-1997  kleink Add missing `STANDARDS' compliance statements. As we #define _POSIX_VERSION
to 199009L, bump existing statements to 1003.1-1990.
 1.8  27-Feb-1995  cgd merge with lite, keeping most local changes. clean up Ids
 1.7  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".
 1.6  19-Apr-1994  jtc Use symbolic names {NAME_MAX} & {PATH_MAX} instead of 255 and 1023 in
description of ENAMETOOLONG error.
 1.5  31-Jan-1994  jtc ENOPSUPP -> EOPNOPSUPP
 1.4  15-Dec-1993  jtc Must #include <sys/types.h> to use these functions.
 1.3  29-Nov-1993  jtc Use "Er" for argument to -width in the lists in the ERROR sections --- so
the formatting is consistant.
 1.2  01-Aug-1993  mycroft Add RCS indentifiers.
