Bug#553413: proc(5): Add field numbers
tags 553413 fixed-upstream thanks I've now myself made all of these changes, at the same time as I made some other changes in proc(5). I omitted this piece of the downstream patch: @@ -1195,16 +1195,16 @@ .in +4n .nf -cache buffer size in KB -capacity number of sectors -driver driver version -geometry physical and logical geometry -identify in hexadecimal -media media type -model manufacturer's model number -settings drive settings -smart_thresholds in hexadecimal -smart_values in hexadecimal +(1) cache buffer size in KB +(2) capacity number of sectors +(3) driver driver version +(4) geometry physical and logical geometry +(5) identify in hexadecimal +(6) media media type +(7) model manufacturer's model number +(8) settings drive settings +(9) smart_thresholds in hexadecimal +(10) smart_values in hexadecimal .fi .in That piece didn't make sense, since those items are files, not fields. I also omitted the slabinfo piece, since really the place for those details is in the slabinfo(5) page, which is itself seriously out of date (see FIXMEs in the page source).
