            Bug ID: 217164
           Summary: proc(5) man page says that VmallocUsed is not
                    calculated, but it is calculated for me
           Product: Documentation
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: man-pages
          Assignee: documentation_man-pages@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
          Reporter: konrad@borowski.pw
        Regression: No

https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man5/proc.5.html says the following:

              VmallocUsed %lu
                     Amount of vmalloc area which is used.  Since Linux
                     4.4, this field is no longer calculated, and is
                     hard coded as 0.  See /proc/vmallocinfo.

However, this was changed in 5.3 in
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/97105f0ab7b877a8ece2005e214894e93793950c.
