Hi,
From a few patches of Pali and their subsequent discussions,
For others, link to patch with code example:

And links to other discussions:

it was clear
that those types need to be documented (the most appropriate place being
system_data_types(7), with link pages termios-struct(3) and
termios2-struct(3)).
The most important part (the one we had problems with) being which headers
should be included for each type (and for each version of the type
(kernel/glibc)). That includes the recommended header, and other headers
that _shall_ also provide the type.
Is there someone that knows those types enough to write such documentation
and wants to do it? :)
Thanks,
Alex
