625 | What: noswapaccount kernel command line parameter | ||
626 | When: 2.6.40 | ||
627 | Why: The original implementation of memsw feature enabled by | ||
628 | CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR_SWAP could be disabled by the noswapaccount | ||
629 | kernel parameter (introduced in 2.6.29-rc1). Later on, this decision | ||
630 | turned out to be not ideal because we cannot have the feature compiled | ||
631 | in and disabled by default and let only interested to enable it | ||
632 | (e.g. general distribution kernels might need it). Therefore we have | ||
633 | added swapaccount[=0|1] parameter (introduced in 2.6.37) which provides | ||
634 | the both possibilities. If we remove noswapaccount we will have | ||
635 | less command line parameters with the same functionality and we | ||
636 | can also cleanup the parameter handling a bit (). | ||
