Description Cameron Norman 2015-01-02 19:00:23 UTC 
I found no documentation for the hidepid mount option (only applicable to procfs). I think the procfs manpage would be a good place to put this information. Unfortunately I did not find the info, so I have no patch. Maybe when I get in the mood to go through the kernel mailing list looking or the final version of the patch :)
Comment 1 Michael Kerrisk 2015-05-05 14:00:39 UTC 
There is some documentation in the kernel source file 
Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt, and I've reworked that text into the proc(5).

Thanks for the report.
