Messages sorted by: [ date ] [ thread ] [ subject ] [ author ]

the "cache" part of the description is actually a wildcard,
as, in practice, this will use per-subsystem names:

/sys/kernel/slab/Acpi-Namespace/align
/sys/kernel/slab/Acpi-Operand/align
/sys/kernel/slab/Acpi-Parse/align
...
/sys/kernel/slab/zswap_entry/align
