tzfile.5: Add information on version 2 format timezone files
...
Updated using information from the tzcode 2010l release at
ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub.
(It's an open question whether or not a version of tzfile.5
should live independently in man-pages. It was added to the
man-pages set many years ago. For now, I'll follow a
conservative course that causes least pain to downstream,
by continuing to maintain a separate copy in man-pages.)

elf.5: Document PN_XNUM extension
...
In linux-2.6.34-rc1, an ELF core extension was added; user-land tools
manipulating ELF core dump such as gdb and binutils has already been
modified before; so elf.5 needs to be modified accordingly.
You can follow information on the ELF extension via the LKML post:

Date Mon, 04 Jan 2010 10:06:07 +0900 (JST)
Subject [RESEND][mmotm][PATCH v2, 0/5] elf coredump: Add extended numbering support
This Linux-specific extension was added in kernel 2.6.34.

This is more consistent with the term "mounts namespace"
used in the 2008 ACM SIGOPS paper, "Virtual servers
and and checkpoint/restart in mainstream Linux".
(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..)

In recent times, a number of other namespace flags have been

the generic term "namespace" to refer to the particular
namespace controlled by CLONE_NEWNS; instead, use the
term "mount-point namespace".

Update /proc/[number]/cmdline description.
...
It used to be true that the command line arguments were
not accessible when the process had been swapped out.
In ancient kernels (circa 2.0.*) the problem was that the
kernel relied on get_phys_addr to access the user space buffer,
which stopped working as soon as the process was swapped out.
Recent kernels use get_user_pages for the same purpose and thus
they should not have that limitation.

Since linux 2.6.11, /proc/stat has an eighth value for cpu
...
lines: stolen time, which is the time spent in other operating
systems when running in a virtualized environment.

I noticed things to correct and to clarify in subsection
...
"/proc/filesystems" of proc.5:
- clarify filesystems listing: not only FS compiled
into the kernel, also FS kernel modules currently loaded
- add a reference to fs(5)
- add an explanation for FS marked with "nodev"
- s/mount(1)/mount(8)/, also corrected in section "SEE ALSO"
- clarify usage by mount: the current wording may lead to
think /proc/filesystems is always used by mount when no FS
is specified. So, usage of "may" which IMHO is more
appropriate + additionnal explanations
In mount(8) we can see:
If no -t option is given, or if the auto type is
specified, mount will try to guess the desired type.
If mount was compiled with the blkid library, the
guessing is done by this library. Otherwise, mount
guesses itself by probing the superblock; if that
does not turn up anything that looks familiar,
mount will try to read the file /etc/filesystems,
or, if that does not exist, /proc/filesystems.
All of the filesystem types listed there will be
tried, except for those that are labeled "nodev"
(e.g., devpts, proc and nfs). If /etc/filesystems
ends in a line with a single * only, mount will
read /proc/filesystems afterwards.
