https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D260793 --- Comment #6 from Mark Johnston <markj@FreeBSD.org> --- (In reply to Peter Much from comment #5) If trimonce is not set, then savecore will most likely be able to recover a kernel dump from a dump (swap) device, after which it clears metadata on the device. This clearing is what prevents the swap pager from being able to exclusively "claim" a device. The kernel has no idea whether swapon intend= s to trim the device or not. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
