266 | 266 | \item Important extensions of IEEE Std 1003.1-1990 (they are part of IEEE Std |
267 | 267 | 1003.1, 2004 Edition): |
268 | 268 | \begin{itemize} |
269 | | -\item \emph{IEEE Std 1003.1b-1993 Realtime Extension}, informally known as |
270 | | -POSIX.4, because that was its original naming before renumbering. |
271 | | -Most of this extension is optional, therefore the claim ``system supports |
272 | | -POSIX.1b'' gives even worse testimony that ``system is POSIX compatible'', i.e. |
273 | | -practically zero. The only mandatory part of POSIX.4 is a simple addendum to |
274 | | -signals compared to POSIX1990. It is therefore always necessary to state |
275 | | -what exactly out of POSIX.4 is implemented -- e.g. shared memory, semaphores, |
276 | | -real-time signals, memory locking, asynchronous I/O, timers, etc. |
| 269 | +\item \emph{IEEE Std 1003.1b-1993 Realtime Extension}, informally also known as |
| 270 | +POSIX.4, because that was its original naming before renumbering. Most of this |
