Subject: [PATCH v1 00/21] man/man2/*: Update history of syscalls H-M
Date: Mon, 26 Jan 2026 12:28:10 +0000 [thread overview]

Hi all,
This set updates the history of system calls H to M.
While I have been thorough with my research, I would encourage those
interested to double-check that my edits make sense given the listed
sources. Particularly for linkat(2), SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE, mkdirat(2),
and mincore(2), since they took significantly more time and research
than other functions.
