Hi Michael,
Here's a first patch set adding a new LIBRARY section
to man2 and man3 pages (I started with man2).
It is based on (mostly cloned from) FreeBSD's man pages,
as I liked that section from them.
It normalizes the information we had in comments in
NOTES or SYNOPSIS or DESCRIPTION.
Or in most pages we didn't even have it, as we assume that 'cc' already
handles '-lc' by deafult.
Patch 20/45 was removed on purpose due to a mistake.
Cheers,
Alex

I'm not sure about these, my understanding is that the primary purpose
of section 2 is syscalls, userspace-kernel interface, and not their
libc wrappers. Even intro(2) states that it is Linux-specific:
“Section 2 of the manual describes the Linux system calls. A system
call is an entry point into the Linux kernel.” Tying it to libc feels
like a bit of a stretch, even though it is the exceedingly common
interface for invoking them.

Thanks for pointing that out. I had some doubts about this in the
beginning. I started writing something like "Linux kernel - GNU C
library" meaning that it's not only a thing of glibc but also the
kernel. But no one replied my RFCs... :/
In the end I simplified it to Standard C library (as FreeBSD does),
because I wasn't convinced of the syntax I had used. And also, since a
man page being in section 2 already implies that it is implemented in
the kernel, I didn't want to be repetitive, and just point what the user
has to link to to make a program work.
There are some system calls that are wrapped by other libraries, such as
keyctl(2) by libkeyutils, and those get a different LIBRARY (you can
check patch 02/45).
But if you think there's a better way to express this, please propose it.
Thanks!
Alex.

Apologies on my part—I read the list only occasionally.

The issue here is that FreeBSD has a bit of a different approach,
where libc and kernel are parts of the whole operating systems and
quite tied together, so there's no (assumption about) multiple libc
implementations like in Linux (it is possible, but meaningless—libc is
a part of OS already, after all), so calling syscalls without libc is
much more unusual than in Linux (where it is sometimes even required,
for example, to do weird stuff on x32, for which libc, and even its
syscall() implementation, could stand in the way).

After some thinking, I think it's okay; I re-read some “C
library/kernel differences”, and those are clearly written with the
assumption that the described call is invoked via its libc wrapper;
notes about the absence of a glibc wrapper for some other syscalls
hint at the same expectation.

but as you say, man-pages already assume use of the glibc (or other
libraries') wrappers almost everywhere; and I think doing otherwise
would overcomplicate it.
Thanks for reviewing my patches!!

Not sure what value "libc, -lc" to the man pages. I think having a
standardized section for functions that require libraries other than
libc is fine, so you remember when you need -lm or -lrt (although IIRC
recently a few of these were folded in libc, at least for glibc). But
-lc feels kind of redundant. Does that mean you need to add -lc in
your Makefile? Some people might interpret it as such.
I think no library section = no special library required might be clearer.
Also, on FreeBSD it's quite obvious you're talking about THE library.
But on Linux, you have glibc, musl libc, diet libc... Is the plan to
document requirements for all of these? E.g link with -lm on musl
libc, no special flags on glibc..?
Thanks,
Stefan.

I think, the split is codified in the standards[1][2][3][4][5] (so,
-lm/-lrt are expected to be supported by the compiler, per my
understanding, and providing the necessary -l* option will always
work, because it's codified in C standard, contrary to not providing
one) and the fact that glibc provides libm/librt symbols in -lc is
more akin to a bit of convenience (for application or glibc
developers, not sure which ones), and not something one should rely
upon.

Thanks for the references!
With those, I'll do a second round of changes (after all of the man[23]
pages are changed to use LIBRARY, which is the first round), checking
that the info in LIBRARY is accurate, and possibly documenting also the
standard if we were documenting a glibc extension. Now I'll assume the
man pages are correct, and only move around the info.
Cheers,
Alex

I think libc provides libm/librt as library files; the linker just
finds them in /usr/lib, /usr/lib64 or whatever other folder they are
installed into. So I would say it's not "supported by the compiler"
technically, but by libc.

That's assuming that the libraries adhere to those standards, I'm not
sure if that's the situation. There are also functions like backtrace
(https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/backtrace.3.html) which are
extensions, and some might not be implemented in other libraries
besides glibc. Maybe the Linux man-pages should mention glibc
explicitly instead of a rather ambiguous libc? And then details about
the other libs can be added, wherever they differ.
Thanks,
Stefan.

The C standard does not specify compiler invocations.
POSIX specifies some of these libraries and says that you have to link
with, e.g., -lm if you use math functions. It also says that the
same functions may be available without -lm.
But some of these libraries are not in POSIX. dlopen, for example,
should be usable without -ldl according to POSIX, but in glibc before
2.34, it is not.
And yes, in glibc 2.34, there are libdl.a etc. files, so that the old
-ldl etc. options still work.
Thanks,
Florian
