Hi! I'm considering making sashimi of prctl(2), similar to what I did recently to proc(5). Another precedent is in ioctl(2). I'm still unsure about the naming scheme. I've thought of the following (using prctl(PR_CAP_AMBIENT, ...) for the example): - prctl_cap_ambient(2) - prctl_PR_CAP_AMBIENT(2) - prctl_CAT_AMBIENT(2)
From these, my favourite is the second one. Here's another one: - PR_CAP_AMBIENT(2)
The upper-/lower-case mix shouldn't be a problem, since man(1) is case- insensitive (mostly). Any opinions on this or other aspects of the split? Have a lovely day! Alex -- <https://www.alejandro-colomar.es/>
