Subject: [PATCH] ionice.1: clarify description of --classdata
Date: Fri,  3 Jun 2016 21:27:49 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1464989269-6761-1-git-send-email-danielsh@apache.org> (raw)

Before this patch, it wasn't clear whether '0' or '7' should be used to
specify "highest priority".  (The answer could have been inferred from
the 'Examples' section of the man page.)
