Apologies on bumping the thread again, just wanted to also mention the man-pages project has also taken the new man page documenting the interface for glibc: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/docs/man-pages/man-pages.git/commit/?h=ioctl&id=e450bcf6e35a5c227c5e80cdb4e44bb89516a5ee Is there an equivalent documentation I should submit a similar change to that is musl specific? If so, please let me know and I'd be happy to do so. Thanks, Joe
