Michael Kerrisk 37d12157fd namespaces.7: Note exception to permissions needed when writing to uid_map/gid_lmap
Quoting mail with Eric Biederman:

>>> So, by the way, I added this sentence to the page:
>>>
>>>         In   order   to   write   to   the   /proc/[pid]/uid_map
>>>         (/proc/[pid]/gid_map) file,  a  process  must  have  the

>>>         of the process pid.
>>>
>>> Is that correct?
>>
>> Yes.

At the time of clone() or unshare() that creates a new user namespace,
the kuid and the kgid of the process does not change.

setuid and setgid fail before any mappings are set up.

Therefore the caller is allowed to map any single uid to the uid of the
caller in the parent user namespace.  Likewise the caller is allowed to
map any single gid to the gid of the caller in the parent user

Sorin Dumitru eb67122e5f packet.7: Fix include file
It looks like most of the socket options from this man pages
are not defined in <netpacket/packet.h>. They are defined in
<linux/if_packet.h> so we should include that one.

Note from mtk: it looks like <netpacket/packet.h> was based
on some ancient version of <linux/if_packet.h> that has not
been updated. Since linux/if_packet.h is under the "uapi" tree
the proposed patch seems the bext fix.

* Events that can be generated only for the watched directory.
* Events that can be generated only for objects that are inside
  the watched directory.
* Events that can be generated both for the watched directory
  and for objects inside the directory.

So, mark these three classes more clearly in the list of inotify
events.

Heinrich Schuchardt ec976a53a3 inotify.7: BUGS: Note possible bug triggered by watch descriptor reuse
Watch descriptor IDs are returned by inotify_add_watch().
When calling inotify_rm_watch() an IN_IGNORE is placed on the
inotify queue pointing to the ID of the removed watch.

inotify_add_watchi() should not return a watch descriptor ID for
which events are still on the queue but should return an
unused ID.

Unfortunately, the existing Kernel code does not provide such a
guarantee.

Actually, in rare cases watch descriptor IDs are returned by
inotify_add_watch() for which events are still on the inotify
queue.

See https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77111

Marko Myllynen 79172100b6 unicode.7: Update to reflect past developments
The unicode(7) page will look more modern with few small changes:

- drop old BUGS section, editors cope with UTF-8 ok these days,
  and perhaps the state-of-the-art is better described elsewhere
  anyway than in a man page
- drop old suggestion about avoiding combined characters
- refer to LANANA for Linux zone, add registry file reference
- drop a reference to an inactive/dead mailing list
- update some reference URLs
