in writev(2)
After a patch proposal from наб triggered by concerns that, when
talking about PIPE_BUF, pipe(7) explicitly mentions write(2) but
not writev(2), I've concluded that the reference in writev(2) to
pipe(7) is not needed (mea culpa; I added that text), and I think
the text in pipe(7) could be written to be closer to the POSIX
spec, which doesn't talk about "write() calls", but simply about
"writes".

In ppc32 functions section, the Y2038 compliant function
__kernel_clock_gettime64() is missing.
It was added by commit d0e3fc69d00d

Alan:
[
The on-line copy of the manual page "posixoptions(7)" dated
2018-04-30 has an entry for "getcwd()" in the section headed
"XSI - _XOPEN_LEGACY - _SC_XOPEN_LEGACY".
I believe that entry should be "getwd()" as that is the API call
which was present in X/Open-6 but withdrawn in X/Open-7.
]
mtk: confirmed by reviewing the table ("Removed Functions and
Symbols in Issue 7") at the end of Section B.1.1 on page
3564 of IEEE Std 1003.1, 2016 Edition.

See https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=213419
ppc/32 and ppc/64 sections both have the following note:
The CLOCK_REALTIME_COARSE and CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE clocks are
not supported by the __kernel_clock_getres and
__kernel_clock_gettime interfaces; the kernel falls back to the
real system call
This note has been wrong from quite some time now, since commit
654abc69ef2e ("powerpc/vdso32: Add support for
CLOCK_{REALTIME/MONOTONIC}_COARSE") and commit
5c929885f1bb ("powerpc/vdso64: Add support for
CLOCK_{REALTIME/MONOTONIC}_COARSE")

Since commit ee81d7e41852, the flags list has been (only) above, not
below, these references.
(The flags table was added even before that, in commit 0b497138b908
("namespaces.7: Add table of namespaces to top of page"))
Fixes: ee81d7e41852 ("namespaces.7: Include manual page references in the summary table of namespace types")

I regularly get mildly lost in this table (and, indeed, didn't realise
it had two columns the first few times I used it to look at something
from the left column) ‒ separating the two columns improves clarity,
and makes which soup of numbers belongs to which character
much more obvious
Other encodings don't need this as they don't use double-columnated
tables

The file being referred to no longer exists, as it was moved to
*.rst first (commit 20a78ae9ed297f2) and then to under
admin-guide (commit bf6b7a742e3f82b). Both those commits
are from 2019 (Linux 5.3).

My previous patch intended to drop the docs for the lockdown lift
SysRq, but it missed this other section that refers to lifting it
via a keyboard - an allusion to that same SysRq.

The patch that implemented lockdown lifting via SysRq ended up
getting dropped[*] before the feature was merged upstream. Having
the feature documented but unsupported has caused some confusion
for our users.

The environ(7) man page says:
SHELL The pathname of the user's login shell.
PAGER The user's preferred utility to display text files.
EDITOR/VISUAL
The user's preferred utility to edit text files.
but doesn't say whether the pathnames must be absolute or they can
be resolved using $PATH, or whether they can have options.
Note that at least for SHELL, this is not specified by POSIX.
This issue was raised in the Austin Group mailing-list, and the
answer is that "what constitutes a valid value for a platform
should be documented" [1].
Since OpenSSH assumes that $SHELL is an absolute pathname (when
set), it is supposed that the documentation should be:
SHELL The absolute pathname of the user's login shell.
For PAGER, POSIX says: "Any string acceptable as a command_string
operand to the sh -c command shall be valid."
For EDITOR, it does not need to be an absolute pathname since
POSIX gives the example:
EDITOR=vi fc
and since it is specified as "the name of a utility", It assumes
that arguments (options) must not be provided. Page 3013 about
"more", it is said: "If the last pathname component in EDITOR is
either vi or ex, [...]", thus again, it is assumed to be a
pathname.
For VISUAL, POSIX says: "Determine a pathname of a utility to
invoke when the visual command [...]", thus it is also a pathname.
It is not clear whether the pathname must be absolute, but for
consistency with EDITOR, it will be resolved using $PATH.

When I inherited man-pages in 2004, it was a hodge-podge mix of
American vs British spelling. My native spelling is the latter,
but I value consistency and felt that things needed to be
standardized on one or other, and in computing, American is the
norm so that is what I settled on.
Among the changes was the substitution of various instances
of "acknowledgement" for "acknowledgment". The latter spelling is
not one I care for, but I believed it to be the American norm.
Alex Colomar proposed a patch to change the spelling back
to "acknowledgement", and some discussion and investigation
ensued, whereby I learned the following:
* The situation is not clear cut.
* Historically, "acknowledgment" was the norm in British English,
but was eclipsed by "acknowledgement" some decades ago.
* Even in American English, "acknowledgment" is not universal,
and "acknowledgement" has become more common in recent decades
(although it still remains minority usage) [2].
* The BSD license uses "acknowledgement" even though it was
(presumably) written in California.
* The POSIX standard uses "acknowledgement".
* The Debian BTS uses "acknowledgement".
* Looking at a corpus of manual pages from various systems
that I have assembled over the years, "acknowledgement" seems
a little more common than "acknowledgment".
Summary: the situation is not clear cut, but let's follow BSD,
POSIX, and the personal preference of the man-pages maintainers.

Rationale:
$ man 7 man-pages 2>/dev/null | sed -n /Paragraphs/,/^$/p
Paragraphs should be separated by suitable markers (usually
either .PP or .IP). Do not separate paragraphs using blank
lines, as this results in poor rendering in some output
formats (such as PostScript and PDF).
Fix:
$ sed -i -e '1,/^\.EX/s/^$/.PP/' -e '/^\.EE/,/^\.EX/s/^$/.PP/' man?/*
And then some manual adjustments.

Rather than mention these pages under the discussion of one
version of the standard, move that text to the end of the page,
where it is probably a little more obvious.

CAP_BPF, CAP_PERFMON, and CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE have all been
added to split out the power of CAP_SYS_ADMIN into weaker pieces.
Group all of these capabilities together in the list under
CAP_SYS_ADMIN, to make it clear that there is a pattern to these
capabilities.

After forking slist.3, list.3, tailq.3, stailq.3 & circleq.3
in the previous commits,
this page no longer belongs in Section 3 of the manual pages.
According to its contents, the most suitable section is Section 7.
Because of legacy reasons, a link queue.3 -> queue(7)
would be appropriate.

POSIX.1-2001
Paul Eggert commented on a patch that proposed to note the
POSIX.2001 details:
No actual POSIXish implementation ever made it a
real-floating type, though, and that point should be made
lest some conscientious programmer worry about a nonexistent
porting issue.
We opted to drop the patch, but in case someone else points out
this POSIX.1-2001 difference in the future, let's leave a comment
in the page source.
