Author: jilles Date: Wed Jul 3 22:04:35 2013 New Revision: 252622 URL: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/252622 Log: MFC r248774: accept(2): Mention inheritance of O_ASYNC and signal destination. While almost nobody uses O_ASYNC, and rightly so, the inheritance of the related properties across accept() is a portability issue like the inheritance of O_NONBLOCK.
