            Bug ID: 70141
           Summary: getxattr(2): #include <attr/xattr.h> problem
           Product: Documentation
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: man-pages
          Assignee: documentation_man-pages-ztI5WcYan/vQLgFONoPN62D2FQJk+8+b@public.gmane.org
          Reporter: libnoon-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org
        Regression: No

Hello,

On the getxattr(2) manual page [1], it is indicated that the includes should be

#include <sys/types.h>
#include <attr/xattr.h>

However, on my system [2], the compiler (g++) cannot find <attr/xattr.h>.

#include <attr/xattr.h>
fatal error: attr/xattr.h: No such file or directory

There are only two xattr.h files on my system (according to locate(1)):

/usr/include/linux/xattr.h
/usr/include/sys/xattr.h

It appears that replacing <attr/xattr.h> with <sys/xattr.h> fixes my
compilation problem.

I guess the manual page needs to be fixed?

Thanks!

Best regards
Fabrice
