[PATCH 3/5] docs: sysctl/fs: merge the aio sections

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

 



There are two sections documenting aio-nr and aio-max-nr, merge them.
I kept the second explanation of aio-nr, which seems clearer to me,
along with the effects of the values from the first section.
