                Maximum number of free pages to keep in each block
                backend buffer.

Date:           March 2013

Contact:        Roger Pau Monné <roger.pau@citrix.com>
Description:
                Maximum number of grants to map persistently in
                blkback. If the frontend tries to use more than
                max_persistent_grants, the LRU kicks in and starts
                removing 5% of max_persistent_grants every 100ms.

What:           /sys/module/xen_blkfront/parameters/max
Date:           June 2013
KernelVersion:  3.11
Contact:        Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@oracle.com>
Description:
                Maximum number of segments that the frontend will negotiate
                with the backend for indirect descriptors. The default value
                is 32 - higher value means more potential throughput but more
                memory usage. The backend picks the minimum of the frontend
                and its default backend value.

bcache-tools now ships udev rules, and bcache devices are known to the kernel
