Hi,

 From a few patches of Pali and their subsequent discussions,
For others, link to patch with code example:

And links to other discussions:

it was clear
that those types need to be documented (the most appropriate place being
system_data_types(7), with link pages termios-struct(3) and
termios2-struct(3)).

The most important part (the one we had problems with) being which headers
should be included for each type (and for each version of the type
(kernel/glibc)).  That includes the recommended header, and other headers
that _shall_ also provide the type.

Is there someone that knows those types enough to write such documentation
and wants to do it? :)

Thanks,

Alex
