Summary0000154: waitid() WCONTINUED and WSTOPPED descriptions need clarification
DescriptionThe descriptions of the WCONTINUED and WSTOPPED flags on the waitid()
page are not as clear as they could be. The suggested changes make the
descriptions consistent with those of WCONTINUED and WUNTRACED on the
wait() page, updated to take account of the WNOWAIT flag.
Desired Action
At line 69071 change:

    WCONTINUED  Status shall be returned for any child that was stopped
                and has been continued.

to:

    WCONTINUED  Status shall be returned for any continued child process
                whose status either has not been reported since it
                continued from a job control stop or has been reported
                only by calls to waitid() with the WNOWAIT flag set.

At line 69078 change:

    WSTOPPED    Status shall be returned for any child that has stopped
                upon receipt of a signal.

to:

    WSTOPPED    Status shall be returned for any child that has stopped
                upon receipt of a signal, and whose status either has
                not been reported since it stopped or has been reported
                only by calls to waitid() with the WNOWAIT flag set.
