-To enabled zswap, the "enabled" attribute must be set to 1 at boot time.  e.g.
-zswap.enabled=1
+Zswap is disabled by default but can be enabled at boot time by setting
+the "enabled" attribute to 1 at boot time. ie: zswap.enabled=1.  Zswap
+can also be enabled and disabled at runtime using the sysfs interface.
+An example command to enable zswap at runtime, assuming sysfs is mounted
+at /sys, is:
+
+echo 1 > /sys/modules/zswap/parameters/enabled
+
+When zswap is disabled at runtime it will stop storing pages that are
+being swapped out.  However, it will _not_ immediately write out or fault
+back into memory all of the pages stored in the compressed pool.  The
+pages stored in zswap will remain in the compressed pool until they are
+either invalidated or faulted back into memory.  In order to force all
+pages out of the compressed pool, a swapoff on the swap device(s) will
+fault back into memory all swapped out pages, including those in the
+compressed pool.
