Nikola Forró 85a7acd768 nsswitch.conf.5: Update NSS compatibility mode description
From the current description of NSS compatibility mode it seems
that /etc/passwd is the only file where special entries are
permitted.  But "compat" service can also be specified for group
and shadow databases, so this needs to be changed.

The list of special entries is for passwd database only, group
and shadow databases are not mentioned.  Because group database
does not support netgroup special entries and it deals with
groups, not users, it is better to make a separate list
of entries for it.

It is true that the default source for the compat pseudo-databases
is "nis", but it can be overridden by any NSS service, not just
"nisplus". Even "compat" itself can be specified as the source for
the pseudo-databases, but doing that of course leads to infinite
recursion, so it makes sense to disallow that.

The information was obtained from glibc source code, namely from
the following files:
nis/nss_compat/compat-pwd.c
nis/nss_compat/compat-grp.c
nis/nss_compat/compat-spwd.c

Ross Zwisler db02982a48 core.5: Add info about DAX coredump filtering flags
Kernel 4.4 added two new core dump filtering flags,
MMF_DUMP_DAX_PRIVATE and MMF_DUMP_DAX_SHARED.

These flags allow us to explicitly filter DAX mappings.
This is desirable because DAX mappings, like hugetlb
mappings, have the potential to be very large.

This is not mentioned anywhere. Users can assume that the file
being read is something like /etc/$DATABASE, but that's not
always the case. It's better to explicitly specify which
file is read for each respective database.  The list of
files was acquired from glibc source code.
