Justin Lebar 04dcb3c8f8 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.

The default setting of 1 in/proc/sys/fs/protected_hardlinks
and /proc/sys/fs/protected_symlinks caused one too many
breakages for Linus's taste, so commit 561ec64ae67e changed
the default for both files to 0.

Mark R Bannister 79e2fba2d9 nsswitch.conf.5: Significant rewrites and improvements 
This patch applies to nsswitch.conf.5 in man-pages-3.36.

My changes almost completely rewrite large sections of the
man page. They are needed to add clarity, correct grammar,
reduce confusion, and bring up-to-date with the latest glibc.
I have checked the man page against the nss source code in
glibc 2.14.90.

Historical notes are demoted to the footer.

The rewrite makes the man page much clearer to
understand, more authoratitive, and easier to read.

(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.)

All definitions of the Epoch have been refactored to the following:

  1970-01-01 00:00:00 +0000 (UTC)

That form is more consistent, logical, precise, and internationally
recognizable than the other variants.

Also, some wording has been altered as well.
