1. so I tried to find out which subsystem the swap space comes under.. when I googled for list of subsystems Linux architecture, no luck. Between, I found out that kernel map, which gives me kind of subsystems/modules. Is there any documentation/links for list of subsystems on Linux?!?! 2. it looks like swap space itself a separate subsystem/module. I thought to subscribe to some lkml dl for swap, but I am not finding any DL at all. Please suggest.

Btrfs was the only one fs which got this below issue or any other fs also? 2. The other way around - is there any FS which is best suitable (best performance) for swap file? 2. Is this issue still there or the wiki isn't updated? *https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/swap <https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/swap>* *Warning:* Btrfs <https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Btrfs> does not support swap files. Failure to heed this warning may result in file system corruption. While a swap file may be used on Btrfs when mounted through a loop device, this will result in severely degraded swap performance. Any suggestions, links, documentations please. Best regards Sekar
