Summary0000597: exit() incorrectly claims that the exit code is masked by 0377
DescriptionUsing waitid(), the whole sizeof int may be passed as exit code,
the current text claims that it is masked by 0377.
Desired ActionChage the text:

The value of status may be 0, EXIT_SUCCESS, EXIT_FAILURE, [CX] [Option Start] or any other value, though only the least significant 8 bits (that is, status & 0377) shall be available to a waiting parent process. [Option End]

to:

The value of status may be 0, EXIT_SUCCESS, EXIT_FAILURE, [CX] [Option Start] or any other value, though if not using waitid() to wait for the process, only the least significant 8 bits (that is, status & 0377) shall be available to a waiting parent process. [Option End]
TagsNo tags attached.
