The Open Group company review.
Bug 1320: /\n/ can match newline Accept as Marked
https://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1320
This item is tagged for TC3-2008.
Change:
Except for the '~' and "!~" operators, and in the gsub, match,
split, and sub built-in functions, ERE matching shall be based
on input records; that is, record separator characters ...
to:
When ERE matching is performed against input records; that is,
the match is against $0 and the current value of $0 resulted
from processing an input record, record separator characters
...
Change:
For the '~' and "!~" operators, and in those four built-in
functions, ERE matching shall be based on text strings; that
is, any character ...
to:
When ERE matching is not performed against input records, it
shall be based on text strings; any character ...
Bug 1323: st_nlink is the number of hard links in the file system Accept as
Marked
https://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1323
This item is tagged for TC3-2008.
On page 392 line 13342 section <sys/stat.h> add a new paragraph:
The st_nlink value shall be the number of hard links to the
file within the file system in which the file resides.
Note: The number of links to the file that can be found by
traversing the file hierarchy can differ from st_nlink. For
example, it can be less than st_nlink if a link to the file
cannot be reached because it is below a directory that has been
overlaid with a mount point for a different file system, and
it can be greater than st_nlink on implementations that allow
a file system (or part of one) to be duplicated at additional
mount points.
Bug 1324: sem_open() should not req uire the same name to map to the same
virtual address OPEN
https://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1324
We need suggested wording. sem_close() would need to be updated as
well. We'll return to this once someone has proposed wording, or
if we catch up on all the other bugs.
