Based on a patch by Bjarni Ingi Gislason.

According to SI, ""The numerical value always precedes the unit,
and a space is always used to separate the unit from the number
[...] The only exceptions to this rule are for the unit symbols
for degree, minute, and second for plane angle."

Paul Eggert 72942d65ad tzfile.5: Sync from tzdb upstream 
This makes tzfile.5 a copy of the tzdb version, except that the
tzdb version's first line is replaced by man-pages boilerplate.
The new version documents version 3 format, among other things.
Also, it removes the "Summary of the timezone information file
format" section, which should no longer be needed due to
improvements in the the part of the man page.

Marko Myllynen a581f7593b locale.5: Refer to existing locales for encoding details 
Mike Fabian and Rafał Luzynski were recently named as glibc
localedata maintainers [1] and after that there's been active
development on this front, including discussion whether it would
be ok to use ASCII or some other encoding as values for actual
locate data.

Since I don't think it would make sense to try to have different
explanation for each glibc version on the locale(5) man page, I'm
proposing that we apply the below patch so that we refer to
existing locale definition files in general and not spell out the
exact format or any certain locale as a definitive guideline.

If the situation changes in the future or new a new convention
meant to last forever is created then perhaps Mike and Rafał can
provide an update then as needed.

Carlos O'Donell dd9454a654 resolv.conf.5: Timeout does not map to resolver API calls 
I'm posting this patch to clarify the timeout behaviour because
there have been developers who expect this timeout to mean
something it is not.

The timeout (and by proxy attempts) does not map to resolver API
calls.  For example a single call to getent might involve multiple
resolution requests to the resolvers listed in resolv.conf and
each request will use TIMEOUT and be attempted at least ATTEMPT
times. A developer using the resolver API cannot easily compute
any given timeout because the implementation may change e.g. A and
AAAA queries made in parallel.  A system administrator uses this
setting to ensure there is a desirable timeout on any request to
any of the nameservers listed in resolv.conf, but no guarantees
exist beyond that.

Document the Elf{32,64}_Nhdr structure, the sections/segments that
contain notes, and how to interpret them.  I've been lazy and only
included the GNU extensions here, especially as others are not
defined in the elf.h header file as shipped by glibc.

I've mostly used binutils, glibc, breakpad, and the GABI ELF spec
as sources of data for these fields.

Mike Frysinger 2b3122418d proc(5): Clarify the root symlink and mount namespaces 
If the target process is in a different mount namespace, the root
symlink actually shows that view of the filesystem.  As an example:

    /* Terminal 1 */
    $ unshare -Urnm
    # mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /etc
    # mount --bind /bin /dev
    # echo $$
    17168

    /* Terminal 2 */
    # ls /etc                       # Normal view of /etc files.
    # ls /proc/17168/root/etc       # Empty view of the tmpfs.
    # ls /dev                       # Normal view of /dev files.
    # ls /proc/17168/root/dev       # Contents of /bin files.

Marko Myllynen bf56400c13 locale.5: Adjust conformance 
Since we now know that glibc does not support all the keywords
mentioned in ISO/IEC TR 14652 [1] and in general glibc aims to
be conforming to POSIX first and foremost, I think it's best
just to drop the reference to ISO/IEC TR 14652 from the man page.

1) http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/SC22/WG20/docs/n972-14652ft.pdf

After this I think the locale related man pages are finally as
complete as they need to be.

- mention script
- section/section-symbol are not used, only mentioned in the ISO TR
- Fix int_currency_symbol -> int_curr_symbol typo
- few formatting fixes

Marko Myllynen 8f2929107b locale.5, repertoiremap.5: Clarify keyword syntax 
All the glibc locale/repertoiremap files use the format described
in the patch. The fix is trivial (and adds an example just in
case), I presume these were copypasted from charmaps.5 page, all
the glibc charmaps use slightly different format for keywords
(I'll send a separate patch to address charmaps.5 next).

Marko Myllynen c9aec10afb locale.5: Complete LC_COLLATE 
Here's the first attempt to (almost) complete the locale.5 manual
page by documenting all (but perhaps one) of the missing
LC_COLLATE keywords.

I think the LC_COLLATE section is still not enough to be used as
the only source when writing collation rules from scratch but
perhaps that's not even needed, it could be also thought that
the section 5 pages merely describe the format used in the files.
Naturally more information could be added later on top of this
patch.

Few notes:

- AFAICS coll_weight_max is not used anywhere in glibc
- I'm not aware of any C library implementation on Linux (for
  which this manual page would be relevant) which would
  implement the POSIX options not supported by glibc
- the glibc specific script keyword could still be documented

Michael Kerrisk 2c8e09b4ff elf.5: Fix description of STV_PROTECTED 
Quoting Mike:

gabi says:
https://refspecs.linuxbase.org/elf/gabi4+/ch4.symtab.html
A symbol defined in the current component is protected if it is
visible in other components but not preemptable, meaning that
any reference to such a symbol from within the defining component
must be resolved to the definition in that component, even if
there is a definition in another component that would preempt by
the default rules. A symbol with STB_LOCAL binding may not have
STV_PROTECTED visibility. If a symbol definition with
STV_PROTECTED visibility from a shared object is taken as
resolving a reference from an executable or another shared object,
the SHN_UNDEF symbol table entry created has STV_DEFAULT
visibility.

solaris/oracle says:
https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E26502_01/html/E26507/chapter6-79797.html
A symbol that is defined in the current component is protected
if the symbol is visible in other components, but cannot be
preempted. Any reference to such a symbol from within the defining
component must be resolved to the definition in that component.
This resolution must occur, even if a symbol definition exists in
another component that would interpose by the default rules.
A symbol with STB_LOCAL binding will not have STV_PROTECTED
visibility.

but i think this ibm article is probably the most understandable:
https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/aix/library/au-aix-symbol-visibility/
The symbol is visible outside the current executable or shared
object, but it may not be overridden. In other words, if a
protected symbol in a shared library is referenced by an other
code in the shared library, the other code will always reference
the symbol in the shared library, even if the executable defines
a symbol with the same name.
