+Some of the pages in zswap are same-value filled pages (i.e. contents of the
+page have same value or repetitive pattern). These pages include zero-filled

+Same-value filled pages identification feature is enabled by default and can be
+disabled at boot time by setting the "same_filled_pages_enabled" attribute to 0,
+e.g. zswap.same_filled_pages_enabled=0. It can also be enabled and disabled at
