New: slabinfo description inaccurate (out of date?)
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16031
Summary: slabinfo description inaccurate (out of date?)
Product: Documentation
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Tree: Mainline
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P1
Component: man-pages
AssignedTo: documentation_man-pages-ztI5WcYan/[email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Regression: No
"man slabinfo" claims, for example, that the fifth column is "the number of pages with at least one active object", when /proc/slabinfo on my (2.6.32) machine uses it for number of objects per slab. Presumably the format it describes is outdated (example shows version 1.1, current is 2.1).
This is from Ubuntu (Lucid)'s 3.23-1.

--- Comment #1 from Jorge Nerín <[email protected]> --- As of man-pages 3.51 this is still the case, but perhaps the correct thing to do being it a kernel file should be to add a note directing users to read current /usr/src/linux/Documentation/vm/slub.txt and/or play with /usr/src/linux/tools/vm/slabinfo.c
