From: Philippe Proulx Date: Wed, 10 Mar 2021 03:38:35 +0000 (-0500) Subject: tracef.3.txt/tracelog.3.txt: always take variadic variants into account X-Git-Tag: v2.13.0-rc1~320 X-Git-Url: https://git.lttng.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d6208c2d79b114af0c7ab1ea78240b2d11081066;p=lttng-ust.git tracef.3.txt/tracelog.3.txt: always take variadic variants into account This patch makes the `tracef.3.txt` and `tracelog.3.txt` manual page sources always mention the variadic variant where the non-variadic variant is mentioned for consistency. This patch also changes the `va_list` type from the "SYNOPSIS" sections as vtracef() and vtracelog() are macros. The type of the `ap` parameter (`va_list`) is given in the "DESCRIPTION" sections.
