Package: manpages-dev
Version: 5.02-1
Severity: normal

Example:

       AT_PLATFORM
              A  pointer  to a string that identifies the hardware platform 
that the program is run‐
              ning on.  The dynamic linker uses this in the interpretation of 
rpath values.


does tell it is a pointer.

It is important as the signature is generic:

       unsigned long getauxval(unsigned long type);


Do the same for:


       AT_BASE_PLATFORM
              A string identifying the real platform; may differ from 
AT_PLATFORM (PowerPC only).

       AT_EXECFN
              Pathname used to execute program.


Cheers,
Witold
