| 4 | Description: | ||
| 5 | The /sys/devices/system/memory contains a snapshot of the | ||
| 6 | internal state of the kernel memory blocks. Files could be | ||
| 7 | added or removed dynamically to represent hot-add/remove | ||
| 8 | operations. | ||

| 16 | Description: | ||
| 17 | The file /sys/devices/system/memory/memoryX/removable | ||
| 18 | indicates whether this memory block is removable or not. | ||
| 19 | This is useful for a user-level agent to determine | ||
| 20 | identify removable sections of the memory before attempting | ||
| 21 | potentially expensive hot-remove memory operation | ||
