Reference this new section from the O_PATH documentation.
And document the functions openat, openat64, fstatat, fstatat64.
(The safety assessment for fstatat was already obsolete because
current glibc assumes kernel support for the underlying system
call.)

The purpose of this patch is to add some system calls that (1) aren't
otherwise documented, and (2) are merely redirected to the kernel, so
can refer to their documentation; and define a standard way of doing
so in the future. A more detailed explaination of how system calls
are wrapped is added along with reference to the Linux Man-Pages
project.
Default version of man-pages is in configure.ac but can be overridden
by --with-man-pages=X.Y

POSIX.1-2024 (now official) specifies tm_gmtoff and tm_zone.
This is a good time to update the manual’s “Date and Time”
chapter so I went through it, fixed some outdated
stuff that had been in there for decades, and improved it to match
POSIX.1-2024 better and to clarify some implementation-defined
behavior. Glibc already conforms to POSIX.1-2024 in these matters, so
this is merely a documentation change.
* manual/examples/strftim.c: Use snprintf instead of now-deprecated
function asctime. Check for localtime failure. Simplify by using
puts instead of fputs. Prefer ‘buf, sizeof buf’ to less-obvious
‘buffer, SIZE’.
* manual/examples/timespec_subtract.c: Modernize to use struct
timespec not struct timeval, and rename from timeval_subtract.c.
All uses changed. Check for overflow. Do not check for negative
return value, which ought to be OK since negative time_t is OK.
Use GNU indenting style.
* manual/time.texi:
Document CLOCKS_PER_SEC, TIME_UTC, timespec_get, timespec_getres,
strftime_l.
Document the storage lifetime of tm_zone and of tzname.
Caution against use of tzname, timezone and daylight, saying that
these variables have unspecified values when TZ is geographic.
This is what glibc actually does (contrary to what the manual said
before this patch), and POSIX is planned to say the same thing
<https://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1816>.
Also say that directly accessing the variables is not thread-safe.
Say that localtime_r and ctime_r don’t necessarily set time zone
state. Similarly, in the tzset documentation, say that it is called
by ctime, localtime, mktime, strftime, not that it is called by all
time conversion functions that depend on the time zone.
Say that tm_isdst is useful mostly just for mktime, and that
other uses should prefer tm_gmtoff and tm_zone instead.
Do not say that strftime ignores tm_gmtoff and tm_zone, because
it doesn’t do that.
Document what gmtime does to tm_gmtoff and tm_zone.
Say that the asctime, asctime_r, ctime, and ctime_r are now deprecated
and/or obsolescent, and that behavior is undefined if the year is <
1000 or > 9999. Document strftime before these now-obsolescent
functions, so that readers see the useful function first.
Coin the terms “geographical format” and “proleptic format” for the
two main formats of TZ settings, to simplify exposition. Use this
wording consistently.
Update top-level proleptic syntax to match POSIX.1-2024, which glibc
already implements. Document the angle-bracket quoted forms of time
zone abbreviations in proleptic TZ. Say that time zone abbreviations
can contain only ASCII alphanumerics, ‘+’, and ‘-’.
Document what happens if the proleptic form specifies a DST
abbreviation and offset but omits the rules. POSIX says this is
implementation-defined so we need to document it. Although this
documentation mentions ‘posixrules’ tersely, we need to rethink
‘posixrules’ since I think it stops working after 2038.
Clarify wording about TZ settings beginning with ‘;’.
Say that timegm is in ISO C (as of C23).
Say that POSIX.1-2024 removed gettimeofday.
Say that tm_gmtoff and tm_zone are extensions to ISO C, which is
clearer than saying they are invisible in a struct ISO C enviroment,
and gives us more wiggle room if we want to make them visible in
strict ISO C, something that ISO C allows.
Drop mention of old standards like POSIX.1c and POSIX.2-1992 in the
text when the history is so old that it’s no longer useful in a
general-purpose manual.
Define Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), time zone, time zone ruleset,
and POSIX Epoch, and use these phrases more consistently.
Improve TZ examples to show more variety, and to reflect current
practice and timestamps. Remove obsolete example about Argentina.
Add an example for Ireland.
Don’t rely on GCC extensions when explaining ctime_r.
Do not say that difftime produces the mathematically correct result,
since it might be inexact.
For clock_t don’t say “as in the example above” when there is no
such example, and don’t say that casting to double works “properly
and consistently no matter what”, as it suffers from rounding and
overflow.
Don’t say broken-down time is not useful for calculations; it’s
merely painful.
Say that UTC is not defined before 1960.
Rename Time Zone Functions to Time Zone State. All uses changed.
Update Internet RFC 822 → 5322, 1305 → 5905. Drop specific years of
ISO 8601 as they don’t matter.
Minor style changes: @code{"..."} → @t{"..."} to avoid overquoting in
info files, @code → @env for environment variables, Daylight Saving
Time → daylight saving time, white space → whitespace, prime meridian
→ Prime Meridian.
"number of arguments, from zero to five" is wrong, because on Linux maximal number
of arguments is 6, not 5. Also, maximal number of arguments is kernel-dependent,
so let's not include it here at all.
Moreover, "Each kind of system call has a definite number of arguments" is questionable.
Think about SYS_open on Linux, which takes 2 or 3 arguments. Or SYS_clone on Linux x86_64, which
takes 2 to 5 arguments. So I propose to fully remove this sentence.

The warning is confusing to those who do not understand the context,
and the warning is easy to misunderstand:
A reader needs to know that it was written by someone who is generally
skeptical of government influence and control, otherwise it reads as
an affirmation of the U.S. government's role as the ultimate editor of
the manual. This is precisely the opposite of what the warning
intends to convey. (Reportedly, it criticizes that several
U.S. administrations have tried to restrict the medical advice that
U.S.-funded health care workers can provide abroad, considering that
censorship.)
The warning is also misleading on a technical level. A reader who
makes the connection to pregnancy termination will get the wrong
impression that calling the abort function will terminate subprocesses
of the current process, but this is not what generally happens.
Finally, for both GNU and the FSF, it is inappropriate to use female
reproductive health as mere joke material, since these organizations
do not concern themselves with such issues otherwise, and the warning
is purportedly about something else entirely.
This reinstates commit 340d9652b9
("manual/startup.texi (Aborting a Program): Remove inappropriate
joke."), effectively reverting the revert in commit
ffa81c22a3 ("Revert:").

* manual/startup.texi (Aborting a Program): Remove inappropriate joke.
This complies with the decision of the project leader and primary and
ultimate maintainer, who partially delegated maintainership to myself
and others under certain constraints.
This is also in line with the community-agreed procedures.
It is obvious that we didn't have consensus on a decision to install
that patch, since both sides are still arguing over it.
As for the decision to reverse the deletion, if we even need one to
counter a move that did not have consensus, although nobody else offered
to install the reversal and restore the status prior to the fait
accompli, and some explicitly refused to do so themselves, nobody
objected when I offered to do so. Therefore, by the same reasoning that
led to the mistaken installation of the patch, and after a much longer
wait for objections, I understand there is consensus on my reverting it.
The Summary is now generated from @standards, and syntax-checking is
performed. If invalid @standards syntax is detected, summary.pl will
fail, reporting all errors. Failure and error reporting is disabled
for now, however, since much of the manual is still incomplete
wrt. header and standards annotations.
Note that the sorting order of the Summary has changed; summary.pl
respects the locale, like summary.awk did, but the use of LC_ALL=C is
introduced in the Makefile. Other notable deviations are improved
detection of the annotated elements' names, which are used for
sorting, and improved detection of the @node used to reference into
the manual. The most noticeable difference in the rendered Summary is
that entries may now contain multiple lines, one for each header and
standard combination.
summary.pl accepts a `--help' option, which details the expected
syntax of @standards. If errors are reported, the user is directed to

[BZ 15846] As discussed in the recent thread on my $EXEC_ORIGIN patch
and in BZ 15846, getauxval() presently has no unambiguous way of
reporting an error condition. It currently returns zero on error, but
this may also be a valid result for some auxv entries. As there is no
clear invalid result for all current and future auxv entries, this patch
sets errno (following a suggestion in the BZ entry).
This version of the patch also adds documentation and tests for the
value-not-found conditions in getauxval().
