Description Paulo Andrade 2022-09-22 13:13:43 UTC

char *cap_to_text(cap_t caps, ssize_t * length_p);
...
cap_to_text() converts ... cap_p ...
... he location pointed to by len_p ...

should change either the prototype or the description to use either
cap_p or caps, as well as len_p or length_p.

That last comment was clearly some location phishing attempt. I'll mark the comment as private.
