+.BR listxattr ().


See man-pages(7):

        Any  reference  to  the  subject of the current manual page
        should be written with the name in bold followed by a  pair
        of parentheses in Roman (normal) font.  For example, in the
        fcntl(2) man page, references to the subject  of  the  page
        would  be  written as: fcntl().  The preferred way to write
        this in the source file is:

            .BR fcntl ()

Cheers,

Alex
