As for devinfo.h, shouldn't it just include stdint.h, sys/types.h or
sys/param.h?
sys/types.h should suffice, even though POSIX says it should be in
inttypes.h:
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/basedefs/inttypes.h.html#tag_13_20
Kind of odd why they're redefined there (in sys/types.h) to be honest,
esp because POSIX doesn't say that they should be defined there.
Probably some pollution introduced that would widely break compiles
because sys/types.h is used everywhere, not inttypes.h.
What's the best way for me to help with this, PR-wise?
I would honestly not go create more PR fodder. Just find a (doc?)
developer with a commit bit who's interested in cleaning up
incorrectness.
I've inlined two patches below:
* The first one should correct the documentation for rman(9). I'm sure
there are problems with other headers, but I haven't checked yet. It
adds sys/types.h to the man page -- I'm not sure if inttypes.h would
be better (DragonFly just adds sys/param.h, FWIW).
* The second one makes devinfo.h include sys/types.h instead of
sys/_types.h -- I still think devinfo.h users should not need to
explicitly include whateverdefinesuint32_t.h, as this, IMHO, is an
implementation detail. It also adds the include to devinfo_var.h,
which, although not installed, should be self-contained. Feedback
very welcome.
As a sidenote, what is the purpose of having both types.h and _types.h?
Thanks!
