From 79c3fabf03a3a817db4b8e078b9c373083a2efda Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chris Hofstaedtler Date: Wed, 22 Oct 2025 17:55:33 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] swapon: (man page) use "defaults" (plural) A lot of documentation on the Internet seems to assume "defaults" is the /correct/ default value when no other options are intended. Documentation/example.files/fstab does not have an entry for swap, but it shows "defaults" for other file systems. It seems prudent to align on a single variant, at least in the documentation, even if both are accepted by swapon.
