fanotify_mark.2, link.2, mount.2, umount.2, proc.5, cgroups.7, fanotify.7: Terminology clean-up: "mount point" ==> "mount"
...
Many times, these pages use the terminology "mount point", where
"mount" would be better. A "mount point" is the location at which
a mount is attached. A "mount" is an association between a
filesystem and a mount point.

elf.5: srcfix: Remove idiosyncratic mark-up
...
This page uses some idiosyncratic mark-up involving the use of
a groff register. The mark-up actually makes no difference to
the formatted result, but does cause man2html(1) to emit error
messages, since it does not understand the mark-up. So, remove
that mark-up.

Various pages: Use .nf/.fi in SYNOPSIS
...
The majority of pages use .nf/.fi in SYNOPSIS, but there are
still many that don't and use .br to achieve newlines. Fix many
of those. This brings greater consistency to the pages, which
eases editing and may ease future scripted edits to the pages.
Many of these changes were script-assisted, with some additional
manual edits.

filesystems.5: wfix: ntfs: remove FAT comparison
...
The main point I was driving at with this patch was to fix
"Microsoft Window's FAT filesystems" (i.e., FAT filesystems which
belong to Microsoft Windows, which is decidedly wrong).
FAT32 first shipped with MS-DOS 7.1, as part of Windows 95 OSR2,
but it's a (relatively) simple logical extension of the previous
FATx filesystems (16 and 12 as we know and love them today, I
don't think the PC ever saw 8), hence the "VFAT" driver name ‒
calling FAT-anything a Windows filesystem would be a flat-out lie,
calling it a Microsoft filesystem would be, uh, facetious.
NTFS (as part of Windows NT), on the other hand, is wholly
different WRT the scope and feature-set (it does borrow some
layouting from FAT, but reading NTFS as FAT doesn't get you very
far, or much).
The replacing bit is also questionable, especially in a.d. 2020:
while it is true that you cannot install NT on FAT (after a
certain point? my memory ain't what it used to be), and must
therefore replace your existing FAT partitions with NTFS during
upgrades; Windows NT 4.0, the last product to be NT-branded came
out in 1996, i.e. you could not install Windows on FAT (and,
therefore, upgrade it to NTFS, replacing it) during my entire
lifetime.
Indeed, in $(date +%Y) we live in a post-NTFS world ‒ putting NTFS
in the same class as FAT beyond "is a filesystem" is a joke.

proc.5: Document inaccurate RSS due to SPLIT_RSS_COUNTING
...
[mtk: Manually applied patch, because of conflicts with other
merged changes; also added an edit suggested by Jann; see the
thread at
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-man/20201012114940.1317510-1-jannh@google.com/ ]
Since 34e55232e59f7b19050267a05ff1226e5cd122a5 (introduced back in
v2.6.34), Linux uses per-thread RSS counters to reduce cache
contention on the per-mm counters. With a 4K page size, that means
that you can end up with the counters off by up to 252KiB per
thread.
Example:
$ cat rsstest.c
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <err.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <signal.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <sys/eventfd.h>
#include <sys/prctl.h>
void dump(int pid) {
char cmd[1000];
sprintf(cmd,
"grep '^VmRSS' /proc/%d/status;"
"grep '^Rss:' /proc/%d/smaps_rollup;"
"echo",
pid, pid
);
system(cmd);
}
int main(void) {
eventfd_t dummy;
int child_wait = eventfd(0, EFD_SEMAPHORE|EFD_CLOEXEC);
int child_resume = eventfd(0, EFD_SEMAPHORE|EFD_CLOEXEC);
if (child_wait == -1 || child_resume == -1) err(1, "eventfd");
pid_t child = fork();
if (child == -1) err(1, "fork");
if (child == 0) {
if (prctl(PR_SET_PDEATHSIG, SIGKILL)) err(1, "PDEATHSIG");
if (getppid() == 1) exit(0);
char *mapping = mmap(NULL, 80 * 0x1000, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE,
MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
eventfd_write(child_wait, 1);
eventfd_read(child_resume, &dummy);
for (int i=0; i<40; i++) mapping[0x1000 * i] = 1;
eventfd_write(child_wait, 1);
eventfd_read(child_resume, &dummy);
for (int i=40; i<80; i++) mapping[0x1000 * i] = 1;
eventfd_write(child_wait, 1);
eventfd_read(child_resume, &dummy);
exit(0);
}
eventfd_read(child_wait, &dummy);
dump(child);
eventfd_write(child_resume, 1);
eventfd_read(child_wait, &dummy);
dump(child);
eventfd_write(child_resume, 1);
eventfd_read(child_wait, &dummy);
dump(child);
eventfd_write(child_resume, 1);
exit(0);
}
