Subject: Suggestion for clarifications on "man 5 proc" page regarding /proc/[pid]/self race conditions
Date: Tue, 12 Dec 2023 09:47:58 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <e170ffa6-986a-4e55-9d44-27d7d7520151@horse64.org> (raw)

Dear Alejandro Colomar,

I hope I'm emailing this to the correct place, I found this contact 
information on https://man7.org/mtk/contact.html regarding man page 
feedback:

I'm suggesting that the "man 5 proc" page is expanded with a section 
clarifying /proc/[pid]/self race conditions, I described details and 
even made a text suggestion here:

https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1216352

(The text suggestion might be wrong, however, since I don't actually 
know what the exact technical state of this is.)

Regards,

ellie
