I agree with Dave that this is confusing as hell. So what does vm_debug (without any options means). I assume it's NOP and all debugging is enabled and that is the default. What if I want to disable _only_ the page struct poisoning. The weird lookcing `-' will disable all other options that we might gather in the future. Why cannot you simply go with [no]vm_page_poison[=on/off]? -- Michal Hocko SUSE Labs _______________________________________________ Linux-nvdimm mailing list Linux-nvdimm@lists.01.org https://lists.01.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-nvdimm
