It's a bit fuzzy, because the situation with the tmpfs(5) manpage is a bit unclear right now (#951598 and #951596). However, the "upstream" (as in "linux kernel") documentation is here: http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man5/tmpfs.5.html and says: The default, when neither size nor nr_blocks is specified, is size=50%. > > It seems there's no way to do that delegation in setup-storage(8) > > right now: if I use `-` as a <sizespec>, I get the following error: > What exactly do you want to delegate? The size= setting. I want to be able to just use the defaults without overriding the configuration of the linux kernel module. a. -- If Christ were here there is one thing he would not be -- a Christian. - Mark Twain
