Subject: [PATCHv3 4/7] zram: describe device attrs in documentation
Date: Fri, 13 Mar 2015 19:29:22 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1426242565-2572-5-git-send-email-sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1426242565-2572-1-git-send-email-sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com>
Briefly describe exported device stat attrs in zram documentation.
We will eventually get rid of per-stat sysfs nodes and, thus,
clean up Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-block-zram file, which is
the only source of information about device sysfs nodes.
Add `num_migrated' description, since there is no independent
`num_migrated' sysfs node (and no corresponding sysfs-block-zram
entry), it will be exported via zram<id>/mm_stat file.
At this point we can provide minimal description, because
sysfs-block-zram still contains detailed information.
