Subject: fixes for lockf.3
Date: Wed, 4 Jul 2012 19:50:09 -0500 (GMT+5)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120705005009.23975.qmail@kosh.dhis.org> (raw)

In lockf(3), the description of EDEADLK says that it can occur with the
T_LOCK operation. That should be F_LOCK. The presence of the T makes it look
like maybe F_TLOCK was intended, but that would be wrong. Only the blocking
F_LOCK operation can cause EDEADLK.

Also, I was looking through Changes.old for the last few versions, and
noticed that fcntl.h was misspelled fntl.h a couple of times.
