Update documentation for memory.max to clarify that the reported value is in multiples of the system page_size. The following example demonstrates this behavior: # cd /sys/fs/cgroup/ # cat cgroup.subtree_control cpu io memory pids # mkdir mem # cd mem # echo 8000000 > memory.max # cat memory.max 7995392 # getconf PAGESIZE 65536 # echo $((8000000/65536*65536)) 7995392 Signed-off-by: Vishal Chourasia <vishalc@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- Documentation/admin-guide/cgroup-v2.rst | 3 +++ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+) diff --git a/Documentation/admin-guide/cgroup-v2.rst b/Documentation/admin-guide/cgroup-v2.rst index 1a16ce68a4d7..577d05c03ffa 100644 --- a/Documentation/admin-guide/cgroup-v2.rst +++ b/Documentation/admin-guide/cgroup-v2.rst @@ -1316,6 +1316,9 @@ PAGE_SIZE multiple when read back.
