| What: /sys/devices/system/memory/memoryX/removable |
| Date: June 2008 |
| Contact: Badari Pulavarty <pbadari@us.ibm.com> |
| Description: |
| The file /sys/devices/system/memory/memoryX/removable |
| indicates whether this memory block is removable or not. |
| This is useful for a user-level agent to determine |
| identify removable sections of the memory before attempting |
| potentially expensive hot-remove memory operation |
