[PATCH v3 3/3] Documentation/cgroup-v2: clarify that zswap.writeback is ignored if zswap is disabled

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



As discussed in [1], zswap-related settings natually
lose their effect when zswap is disabled, specifically
zswap.writeback here. Be explicit about this behavior.
