Right. It adds the efd_mask structure. As far as I understand how it
works is that the actual user-space definition of the structure should
be provided by glibc (sys/eventfd.h), right?
If so, should the man page be updated now? If so, it may result in the
situation where the man page describes a structure that's not available
in the user space yet.
Is there a formal process to do this kind of kernel+glibc+docs changes?
