It is annoying when we have dead links on fd.o. Add project='man-pages|die-net|archlinux' to <citerefentry>-ies. In generated html, add external links to http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man, http://linux.die.net/man/, https://www.archlinux.org/. By default, pages in sections 2 and 4 go to man7, since Michael Kerrisk is the autorative source on kernel related stuff. The rest of links goes to linux.die.net, because they have the manpages. Except for the pacman stuff, since it seems to be only available from archlinux.org. Poor gummiboot gets no link, because gummitboot(8) ain't to be found on the net. According to common wisdom, that would mean that it does not exist. But I have seen Kay using it, so I know it does, and deserves to be found. Can somebody be nice and put it up somewhere?

<para>The value of the parameter is copied into the memory area

containing the message and may be changed after this call. If

<parameter>type</parameter> is <literal>h</literal> (UNIX file

descriptor), it is always "consumed" by this call, and either

successfully appended to the message or closed.</para>

<para>For types <literal>s</literal>, <literal>o</literal>, and

<literal>g</literal>, the parameter <parameter>p</parameter> is

interpreted as a pointer to a <constant>NUL</constant>-terminated
|
||
character sequence. As a special case, a <constant>NULL</constant>
|
||
pointer is interpreted as an empty string. The string should be
|
||
valid Unicode string encoded as UTF-8. In case of the two latter
|
||
types, the additional requirements for a D-Bus object path or
|
||
type signature should be satisfied. Those requirements should be
|
||
verified by the recepient of the message.
