The following package has been upgraded in the Cygwin distribution:

* man-pages-linux	6.04

Documents the Linux kernel system calls and C library interfaces used
by programs, plus system and administrative utilities, devices, file
system, file, and data formats, and related information.

For more information, see the project home page:

	https://kernel.org/doc/man-pages/

As Cygwin has its own man pages with some conflicts, these man pages are
installed under /usr/share/man/man-pages-linux/, so by default searching
or viewing these pages requires the option:

	$ apropos -m|--systems man-pages-linux ...
	$ man -m|--systems man-pages-linux ...

Cygwin man pages are under the default system "man", so for convenience
both systems may be specified separated by comma e.g.

	$ man -m man,man-pages-linux ...

The path or option may also be added explicitly to a users MANPATH or
alias e.g.

	$ export MANPATH=$MANPATH:/usr/share/man/man-pages-linux

	$ alias apropos='apropos -m man,man-pages-linux'
	$ alias man='man -m man,man-pages-linux'

Add -a to show both Cygwin and Linux (and POSIX if companion package
man-pages-posix is also installed) manual pages.

For convenience and backward compatibility /usr/share/man/linux is
provided as a symlink. 

If you prefer to see Linux man pages over Cygwin man pages, then use
-m|--systems linux in the examples above, or add -m linux to a command.

Release 6 added some section 2 and 3 pages suffixed by const, head,
or type installed in the base section directories.

For recent changes, please see below, or after installation read
/usr/share/doc/man-pages-linux/Changes:


man-pages-6.04		2023-04-03

Newly documented interfaces in existing pages

* proc.5	- KPF_PGTABLE			(Linux 4.18)
* landlock.7	- LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_REFER	(Linux 5.19)
* udp.7		- UDP_GRO			(Linux 5.0)
		- UDP_SEGMENT			(Linux 4.18)

Global changes

*  Sections:
   -  Add HISTORY.
   -  HISTORY: Restore C89 references.
   -  Repurpose VERSIONS.
   -  Simplify STANDARDS.
   -  SYNOPSIS: Mark several functions as deprecated.

*  Build system:

   -  Support installing compressed pages (Z='.gz').
   -  Support installing link pages as symlinks (LINK_PAGES='symlink').

Changes to individual pages

The manual pages (and other files in the repository) have been improved
beyond what this changelog covers.  To learn more about changes applied
