            Bug ID: 197755
           Summary: geli_swap_flags is obsolete
           Product: Documentation
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: Documentation
          Assignee: freebsd-doc at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: lists at nerdbynature.de

Chapter 18.13 ("Encrypting Swap") of the FreeBSD handbook[0] mentions that
geli_swap_flags can be used to alter default settings for encrypted swap
devices. This flag has been made obsolete with commit r252310 [1] and during
bootup (10.1-RELEASE) the following is printed now:

 /etc/rc: WARNING: $geli_swap_flags is obsolete.  Ignored.

So, if geli_swap_flags is really obsolete it should be removed from the
documentation. But I wonder if it's still possible to change certain settings
for encrypted swap devices.

Thanks,
C.
