>Description: The man page for wait includes the sentence: For wait(), wait3(), and wait4() functions, the single wpid argument specifies the set of child processes for which to wait. wait() and wait3() however do not take a wpid argument. >How-To-Repeat: man 2 wait >Fix: I am reasonably certain that this sentence was meant to read: was meant to refer to waitpid() and wait4() only. For waitpid() and wait4() functions, the wpid argument specifies the set of child processes for which to wait. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: _______________________________________________ freebsd-doc@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-doc To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-doc-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
