From 3b64cecd5c2923c9f448c44fd0decb39d2e65791 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: ed Date: Sun, 28 Sep 2008 20:15:45 +0000 Subject: Several documentation fixups related to device minor/major numbers: - Document the minor(3), major(3) and makedev(3) macro's. They also apply to umajor() and uminor() in the kernel, but hopefully we'll sort that out one day. - Briefly dev2unit() inside the make_dev(9) manual page, since this is now the preferred macro to obtain character device unit numbers inside the kernel. - Remove the device_ids(9) manual page. It contains highly inaccurate information, such as a description of the nonexistent major(). --- ObsoleteFiles.inc | 6 ++++++ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+) (limited to 'ObsoleteFiles.inc') diff --git a/ObsoleteFiles.inc b/ObsoleteFiles.inc index ec37d0b..31904e3 100644 --- a/ObsoleteFiles.inc +++ b/ObsoleteFiles.inc @@ -14,6 +14,12 @@ # The file is partitioned: OLD_FILES first, then OLD_LIBS and OLD_DIRS last. # +# 20080928: removal of inaccurate device_ids(9) manual page +OLD_FILES+=usr/share/man/man9/device_ids.9.gz +OLD_FILES+=usr/share/man/man9/major.9.gz +OLD_FILES+=usr/share/man/man9/minor.9.gz +OLD_FILES+=usr/share/man/man9/umajor.9.gz +OLD_FILES+=usr/share/man/man9/uminor.9.gz # 20080917: removal of manpage for axed kernel primitive suser(9) OLD_FILES+=usr/share/man/man9/suser.9.gz OLD_FILES+=usr/share/man/man9/suser_cred.9.gz -- cgit v1.1
