==================== Changes in man-pages-3.03 ====================


New and rewritten pages
-----------------------

getcpu.2
Andi Kleen, with some text and edits by mtk
Documents the getcpu(2) system call, introduced in Linux 2.6.19.

sched_getcpu.3
mtk
Documents sched_getcpu(3), a wrapper for getcpu(2), provided
since glibc 2.6.

Hidetoshi Seto and Li Zefan
A description of the cpuset file system, the mechanism introduced

Changes to individual pages
---------------------------

signal.7
mtk
Add a section describing system call restarting, and noting
which system calls are affected by SA_RESTART, and which
system calls are never restarted.
mtk
Describe the aberrant Linux behavior whereby a stop signal
plus SIGCONT can interrupt some system calls, even if no
signal handler has been established, and note the system
calls that behave this way.
