What:	/proc/<pid>/oom_adj
When:	August 2012
Why:	/proc/<pid>/oom_adj allows userspace to influence the oom killer's
	badness heuristic used to determine which task to kill when the kernel
	is out of memory.

	The badness heuristic has since been rewritten since the introduction of
	this tunable such that its meaning is deprecated.  The value was
	implemented as a bitshift on a score generated by the badness()
	function that did not have any precise units of measure.  With the
	rewrite, the score is given as a proportion of available memory to the
	task allocating pages, so using a bitshift which grows the score
	exponentially is, thus, impossible to tune with fine granularity.

	A much more powerful interface, /proc/<pid>/oom_score_adj, was
	introduced with the oom killer rewrite that allows users to increase or
	decrease the badness score linearly.  This interface will replace
	/proc/<pid>/oom_adj.

	A warning will be emitted to the kernel log if an application uses this
	deprecated interface.  After it is printed once, future warnings will be
	suppressed until the kernel is rebooted.

Date:		January 2012
Contact:	Martin K. Petersen <martin.petersen@oracle.com>
Description:
		Some devices support a write same operation in which a
		single data block can be written to a range of several
		contiguous blocks on storage. This can be used to wipe
		areas on disk or to initialize drives in a RAID
		configuration. write_same_max_bytes indicates how many
		bytes can be written in a single write same command. If
		write_same_max_bytes is 0, write same is not supported
		by the device.
