New and rewritten pages
-----------------------
getcpu.2
Andi Kleen, with some text and edits by mtk
Documents the getcpu(2) system call, introduced in Linux 2.6.19.
sched_getcpu.3

Documents sched_getcpu(3), a wrapper for getcpu(2), provided
since glibc 2.6.
cpuset.7
Paul Jackson, with review and editing by mtk, and comments by
Hidetoshi Seto and Li Zefan
A description of the cpuset file system, the mechanism introduced
kernel 2.6.12 for confining processes to designated processors
and nodes. (Becomes the fourth largest page in man-pages!)
Newly documented interfaces in existing pages
---------------------------------------------
readdir.3
mtk
Add documentation of readdir_r().
New links
---------
updwtmpx.3
Alain Portal
Link to updwtmp.3 (3.02 changelog wrongly said this had been done).
readdir_r.3
mtk
Link to readdir.3.

Changes to individual pages
---------------------------
accept.2
mtk
Small wording change.
io_getevents.2
mtk
ERRORS: Add EINTR error.
open.2
mtk
ERRORS: Add EINTR error.
sigaction.2
mtk
Note circumstances in which each SA_* flag is meaningful.
mtk
Describe POSIX specification, and Linux semantics for
SA_NOCLDWAIT when establishing a handler for SIGCHLD.
mtk
Add pointer under SA_RESTART to new text in signal(7)
describing system call restarting.
mtk
Other minor edits.
truncate.2
mtk
ERRORS: Added EINTR error.
A few minor rewordings.
wait.2
mtk
Remove statement that WUNTRACED and WCONTINUED only have effect
if SA_NOCLDSTOP has not been set for SIGCHLD. That's not true.
errno.3
mtk
Add a pointer to signal(7) for further explanation of EINTR.
getgrouplist.3
mtk
SEE ALSO: Add passwd(5).
readdir.3
mtk
Remove <sys/types.h> from SYNOPSIS; POSIX.1-2001 does not
require it.
Some minor rewordings.
sleep.3
mtk
RETURN VALUE: explicitly mention interruption by signal handler.
SEE ALSO: add signal(7).
usleep.3
mtk
POSIX.1-2001 also does not document EINVAL.

SEE ALSO: Add getpwent(3), getpwnam(3).
proc.5
mtk
Add pointer to description of /proc/PID/cpuset in cpuset(7).
signal.7
mtk
Add a section describing system call restarting, and noting
which system calls are affected by SA_RESTART, and which
system calls are never restarted.
mtk
Describe the aberrant Linux behavior whereby a stop signal
plus SIGCONT can interrupt some system calls, even if no
signal handler has been established, and note the system
calls that behave this way.
mtk
Note a few more architectures on which signal numbers are valid.
SEE ALSO: added a number of pages.
mtk
Update async-signal-safe function list for POSIX.1-2004 (which
adds sockatmark()).
