That part I had seen before, but I also expected something like this: + Fix broken overflow check in posix_fallocate + * sysdeps/posix/posix_fallocate.c (posix_fallocate): + Fix parenthesization typo. + * sysdeps/posix/posix_fallocate64.c (__posix_fallocate64_l64): + Likewise.
Nowadays the "Likewise" style is considered old-fashioned in the other projects I hang out in. Although it's fine and is still used on occasion, it feels a bit like writing "whereas" or "henceforth". I don't know whether the newer style has been formally documented anywhere, but it's quite common and it is terser.
