==================== Changes in man-pages-3.68 ====================
Released: 2014-05-28, Munich
New and rewritten pages
-----------------------
localedef.1
Marko Myllynen, Richard Braakman, Alastair McKinstry, Lars Wirzenius
New page for localedef(1)
Add new page based on Debian localedef(1) page.
Changes to individual pages
---------------------------
locale.1
Marko Myllynen
Provide a step-by-step example of how to use a custom locale
fork.2
Michael Kerrisk
ERRORS: add pid_max and threads-max to EAGAIN
And rewrite text to be the same as pthread_create(3).
proc.5
Michael Kerrisk
'pid_max' is a system-wide limit on number of threads and processes
Since PIDs > /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max are not allocated, this
file thus also imposes a system-wide limit on the number of
threads and processes.
capabilities.7
Michael Kerrisk
CAP_SYS_ADMIN allows overriding RLIMIT_NPROC
Michael Kerrisk
CAP_SYS_PTRACE allows process_vm_readv(2) and process_vm_writev(2)
inotify.7
Heinrich Schuchardt
Add example program
This example of the usage of the inotify API shows the
usage of inotify_init1(2) and inotify_add_watch(2) as well
as polling and reading from the inotify file descriptor.
locale.7
Marko Myllynen [Michael Kerrisk]
Document the LOCPATH environment variable
