Subject: [PATCH] cacheflush.2: Update SYNOPSIS for glibc wrapper
Date: Sat, 16 Jan 2021 15:56:33 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210116145632.7636-1-alx.manpages@gmail.com> (raw)

Glibc uses 'void *' instead of 'char *'.
And the prototype is declared in <sys/cacheflush.h>.

......

$ syscall='cacheflush';
$ ret='int';
$ find glibc/ -type f -name '*.h' \
  |xargs pcregrep -Mn "(?s)^[\w\s]*${ret}\s*${syscall}\s*\(.*?;";
glibc/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/nios2/sys/cachectl.h:27:
extern int cacheflush (void *__addr, const int __nbytes, const int __op) __THROW;
glibc/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/mips/sys/cachectl.h:35:
extern int cacheflush (void *__addr, const int __nbytes, const int __op) __THROW;
glibc/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arc/sys/cachectl.h:30:
extern int cacheflush (void *__addr, int __nbytes, int __op) __THROW;
glibc/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/csky/sys/cachectl.h:30:
extern int cacheflush (void *__addr, const int __nbytes,
		       const int __op) __THROW;
