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.

* Remove nop argument from HP macros.
* Remove nop DT macro.
* Replace LP macro with more commonly-used PP macro.

The above do not change the output whatsoever (confirmed with -Z).

* Use .I macro instead of font escapes, obtaining italic correction.

To see the above distinction, use -Tps, -Tpdf, or similar before and
after the change.

Carlos O'Donell dd9454a654 resolv.conf.5: Timeout does not map to resolver API calls

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.

Mike Frysinger 9c72e3cad8 elf(5): document notes
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.
