man-pages-3.72 is released

I've released man-pages-3.72. The release tarball is available on kernel.org. The browsable online pages can be found on man7.org. The Git repository for man-pages is available on kernel.org.

This is a small release; the  more notable changes in man-pages-3.72 are the addition of three new pages by Peter Schiffer that document glibc commands used for memory profile and malloc tracing:

  • The new memusage(1) and memusagestat(1) pages document glibc commands of the same names that are used for memory profiling.
  • The new mtrace(1) page documents the glibc command that is used to process malloc tracing data files produced by mtrace(3).
