As a user-visible issue it requires a bug, and I've filed one for you. https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17965 Please review the contribution checklist: https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Contribution%20checklist > --- > ChangeLog | 5 +++++ > manual/time.texi | 4 ++-- > 2 files changed, 7 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/ChangeLog b/ChangeLog > index cc8f509..42f50c5 100644 > --- a/ChangeLog > +++ b/ChangeLog > @@ -1,3 +1,8 @@ > +2015-02-12 Rüdiger Sonderfeld <ruediger@c-plusplus.net> > + > + * manual/time.texi (Elapsed Time): tv_sec is of type time_t in > + both struct timeval and struct timespec. > + > 2015-02-12 Adhemerval Zanella <azanella@linux.vnet.ibm.com> > > * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/htm.h [TABORT]: Fix encoding for > diff --git a/manual/time.texi b/manual/time.texi > index 8a5f94e..a7bf156 100644 > --- a/manual/time.texi > +++ b/manual/time.texi > @@ -104,7 +104,7 @@ > declared in @file{sys/time.h} and has the following members: > > @table @code > -@item long int tv_sec > +@item time_t tv_sec > This represents the number of whole seconds of elapsed time. > > @item long int tv_usec > @@ -123,7 +123,7 @@ > declared in @file{time.h} and has the following members: > > @table @code > -@item long int tv_sec > +@item time_t tv_sec > This represents the number of whole seconds of elapsed time. > > @item long int tv_nsec >

Is that why my patch is rejected Carlos? https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-02/msg00008.html Sorry, I'm new here. I did read the checklist. It didn't sound like my patch required a bug. Are all changes to the manual considered "user-visible"? I'm not sure what that term encompasses. Thank you, William
I don't think we should require bugs filed for changes to the manual.

It simply hasn't been reviewed. Nobody rejected your patch. If it had been rejected the patcwork instances should have been udpated to reflect that: https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Patch%20Review%20Workflow > Sorry, I'm new here. I did read the checklist.

You're right, it is kind of useless process isn't it.
I guess it depends on how big the manual change is.
For these small fixes it's pretty trivial to see we don't need a bug filed.
It does nicely inflate our fixed bug counts though :}
Cheers,
Carlos.

Agreed. I think the expectation to file bugs should only be for issues
that were bugs in installed code, not documentation, that were
user-visible in releases. Not for new features, not for documentation
issues, not for non-user-visible issues such as cleanups or testsuite
defects (as opposed to user-visible bugs that happened to be shown up by a
testsuite failure). (It can still be useful to file bugs in some such
cases - for example, to record that a well-defined cleanup is desired but
you're not working on it - but not required for cleanups, manual issues
etc. if you're sending the patch and taking charge of pinging it until it
gets in.)
