Other man pages mention when SIGPIPE is sent on EPIPE.
The sendfile man pages could also include such a note as it will also generate the signal.

Verified that SIGPIPE is generated with a small test tool, looked at the man pages with the man command.

  1. In general, this looks good. I have one small question which you can feel free to ignore.

  2. usr/src/man/man3ext/sendfile.3ext (Diff revision 1)
     
     
    The write(2) manual page also mentions 'The process dies unless special provisions were taken to catch or ignore the signal.' Should we also mention that here?
