Yes, that's true.  What I'm meaning is that in the context of
man-pages, I don't want to create a multitude of separate man-pages,
one for each /proc file (greater than a certain size).  As an interim
measure, I suppose that I could create a man link (.so) file that
links the nsame numa_maps.5 to proc.5, so that if someone types "man
numa_maps" they'll at least land on the page (proc(5)) that explains
numa_maps(?).

As I said, I think the ideal solution would probably be a numa(7) page
that includes information on numa_maps in addition to other overview
details on NUMA.  One day...

Cheers,

Michael
