Subject: Differences between man-pages and libc manual safety markings
Date: Fri, 17 Oct 2014 15:26:18 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <544118FA.3070003@gmail.com> (raw)
Hello Haitao,
I was comparing some of the MT-Safety markings in man-pages versus the glibc
manual (https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_mono/libc.html)
I found four cases that seem to contradict. Are there errors in either
the man pages or in the glibc manual?
==
ctermid.3 MT-Unsafe race:ctermid/!s
glibc: MT-Safe
man-pages and glibc manual disagree (man-pages seems to be more
precise than glibc).
==
getcwd.3 MT-Safe env
glibc: MT-Safe
man-pages and glibc manual disagree on "env" (man-pages seems
to be more precise than glibc).
==
getlogin.3 MT-Unsafe race:cuserid/!string locale
glibc: MT-Unsafe race:getlogin race:utent sig:ALRM timer locale
man-pages and glibc manual disagree on "race:cuserid/!string" versus
"race:getlogin"
==
regex.3 MT-Safe env
glibc: MT-Safe locale
man-pages and glibc manual disagree on "env" versus "locale"
==
Cheers,
Michael
