Package: debian-kernel-handbook
Version: 1.0.15
Severity: normal

Hi,

On Chapter 6 of the Kernel Handbook[1], there's an example for a possible
content of /etc/modules:
loop max_int=32
sbp2

I understand that "max_int" is supposed to be a parameter to the loop module,
as explained in this Chapter. However, the modinfo command output shown
afterwards doesn't display this as a possible parameter, only "max_loop" and
"max_part".

I believe the example content of /etc/modules should be updated to reflect the
possible parameters displayed afterwards.


Best regards,
Luís Picciochi

I actually deleted the parameter from the example because systemd
doesn't support parameters here.

It is easier to write an incorrect program than to understand a correct
one.
