Krzysztof Konopko 1391278030 proc.5: Simplify the example of printing out environ 
The binutils package contains a very handy utility to

provided as an example for printing out /proc/[pid]/environ.

Justin Lebar 04dcb3c8f8 proc.5: statm's "shared" field refers to pages backed by files 
I noticed that statm's "shared" field doesn't match the sum of
all the "shared" entries in smaps [1].

The kernel docs explain that statm's "shared" field is "number of
pages that are shared (i.e. backed by a file)" [2].  smaps appears
to call a page shared if it's mapped by at least two processes,
which explains this discrepancy.

I'm not a kernel hacker, but it appears to me they do mean "i.e."
and not "e.g." in the statm description: In
fs/proc/task_mmu.c::task_statm, I see

    *shared = get_mm_counter(mm, MM_FILEPAGES);

Here's a patch which updates the man page to match the (hopefully
correct) kernel docs.

This is more consistent with the term "mounts namespace"
used in the 2008 ACM SIGOPS paper, "Virtual servers

(I avoided the "s", because using the plural strikes me
as klunky English, and anyway we don't talk about
the "PIDs namespace" or the "networks namespace", etc..)
