Michael Kerrisk c4e7b71426 getpeername.2, getsockname.2, getsockopt.2, recv.2, send.2, shutdown.2, sockatmark.3, socket.7, udplite.7: SYNOPSIS: Rename socket file descriptor argument to 'sockfd'
Many sockets man pages use the name 'sockfd' already.
For consistency, changes the others to do so as well.

Many pages still mention use of the obsolete sysctl(2) system
call, or used the term "sysctls"; rewrite these mentions to
instead be in terms of /proc interfaces.

Michael Kerrisk d4c8c97c31 s/PF_/AF_/ for socket family constants. Reasons: the AF_ and
PF_ constants have always had the same values; there never has
been a protocol family that had more than one address family,
and POSIX.1-2001 only specifies the AF_* constants.
