man-pages-3.36 is released

I've released man-pages-3.36. The release tarballs are once more available on kernel.org. The browsable online pages can be found on man7.org. The Git repository for man-pages is once more available on kernel.org (and for the time being at least, also remains available on Github).

The most notable changes in man-pages-3.36 are as follows:

  • A new sendmmsg(2) man page adds documentation of the sendmmsg() system call, which was added in Linux 3.0.
  • The fallocate(2) man page adds documentation of the FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE operation, which was added in Linux 2.6.38.
  • The feature_test_macros(7) man page adds documentation of the _ISOC11_SOURCE feature test macro, which is added in the upcoming glibc 2.16.
