From dcad78507433a9a64b8b548b19e110933f8d939a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: DJ Delorie Date: Thu, 10 Oct 2024 17:16:35 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] manual: Document stdio.h functions that may be macros Glibc has two gnu-extension functions that are implemented as macros but not documented as such: fread_unlocked and fwrite_unlocked. Document them as such. Additionally, putc_unlocked and getc_unlocked are documented in POSIX as possibly being macros. Update the manual to add a warning about those also, depite glibc not implementing them as macros. --- manual/stdio.texi | 12 ++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 12 insertions(+) diff --git a/manual/stdio.texi b/manual/stdio.texi index 75aee8ab08..83f4f92e3f 100644 --- a/manual/stdio.texi +++ b/manual/stdio.texi @@ -929,6 +929,9 @@ Therefore, @var{stream} should never be an expression with side-effects. @safety{@prelim{}@mtsafe{@mtsrace{:stream}}@asunsafe{@asucorrupt{}}@acunsafe{@acucorrupt{}}} The @code{putc_unlocked} function is equivalent to the @code{putc} function except that it does not implicitly lock the stream. +Like @code{putc}, it may be implemented as a macro and may evaluate +the @var{stream} argument more than once.
