Bruce Fields] Don't mention "classical BSD" in discussion of fcntl()/flock in= teraction The noninteraction of flock(2) and fcntl(2) locks does not seem to be classical BSD semantics (at least, checking the 4.4BSD sources suggest that the lock types do interact, although there have been other systems also where fcntl() and flock() locks do not interact). So, fix the text discussing "classical BSD" lock semantics. getunwind.2 Michael Kerrisk [Yuri Kozlov] Fix description of return value s/size of unwind table/size of the unwind data/ mount.2 Eric W.
