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 patch isolates the since/version related fixes as requested.
This change introduces the following delta:
* The page states it was added in 2.6.32 but it is only added
2.6.33 (ref: http://kernelnewbies.org/Linux_2_6_33 )
* The MSG_WAITFORONE flag was in turn only added in 2.6.34

link.2, mkdir.2, mknod.2, open.2, rename.2, symlink.2, write.2, mkfifo.3: Document EDQUOT error
...
The return error EDQUOT is not documented in open(2), write(2),
symlink(2) etc..
Whether inodes or disk blocks are required for each function
is something I based on received wisdom and BSD documentation,
rather than tracing the code to the kernel. For symlink(2)
this certainly depends on the file system type.
This patch was previously sent to the linux-man mailing list
as an RFC in September 2010.
