Subject: docs: cgroup-v2: fix misc.events key format description
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

In misc cgroup, misc.events does not output a simple "max" key. Instead,
each registered misc resource outputs a separate key suffixed with ".max"
(i.e., "<res>.max").
Update the documentation to clarify that the entry key is "<res>.max".

+===============
+dm-queue-length
+===============
+
+dm-queue-length is a path selector module for device-mapper targets,
+which selects a path with the least number of in-flight I/Os.
+The path selector name is 'queue-length'.
+
+Table parameters for each path: [<repeat_count>]
+
+::
+
+	<repeat_count>: The number of I/Os to dispatch using the selected
+			path before switching to the next path.
+			If not given, internal default is used. To check
+			the default value, see the activated table.
+
+Status for each path: <status> <fail-count> <in-flight>
+
+::
+
+	<status>: 'A' if the path is active, 'F' if the path is failed.
+	<fail-count>: The number of path failures.
+	<in-flight>: The number of in-flight I/Os on the path.
+
+
+Algorithm
+=========
+
+dm-queue-length increments/decrements 'in-flight' when an I/O is
+dispatched/completed respectively.
+dm-queue-length selects a path with the minimum 'in-flight'.
+
+
+Examples
+========
+In case that 2 paths (sda and sdb) are used with repeat_count == 128.
+
+::
+
+  # echo "0 10 multipath 0 0 1 1 queue-length 0 2 1 8:0 128 8:16 128" \
+    dmsetup create test
+  #
+  # dmsetup table
+  test: 0 10 multipath 0 0 1 1 queue-length 0 2 1 8:0 128 8:16 128
+  #
+  # dmsetup status
+  test: 0 10 multipath 2 0 0 0 1 1 E 0 2 1 8:0 A 0 0 8:16 A 0 0
