| 6 | help |
| 7 | This option enables a generic filesystem caching manager that can be |
| 8 | used by various network and other filesystems to cache data locally. |
| 9 | Different sorts of caches can be plugged in, depending on the |
| 10 | resources available. |

| 18 | help |
| 19 | This option causes statistical information to be gathered on local |
| 20 | caching and exported through file: |
| 21 | |
| 22 | /proc/fs/fscache/stats |
| 23 | |
| 24 | The gathering of statistics adds a certain amount of overhead to |
| 25 | execution as there are a quite a few stats gathered, and on a |
| 26 | multi-CPU system these may be on cachelines that keep bouncing |
| 27 | between CPUs. On the other hand, the stats are very useful for |
| 28 | debugging purposes. Saying 'Y' here is recommended. |

| 36 | This permits debugging to be dynamically enabled in the local caching |
| 37 | management module. If this is set, the debugging output may be |
| 38 | enabled by setting bits in /sys/modules/fscache/parameter/debug. |
