The value must be positive. Negative values are only a auto assigned by
the kernel when you don't specify a priority.

Title:
Swapon does not respect fstab negative priorities order
Status in util-linux package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
uname -a
Linux msi-ge60-ubuntu 4.2.0-18-generic #22-Ubuntu SMP Fri Nov 6 18:25:50 UTC
2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
sudo swapon --summary
Filename Type Size
Used Priority
/dev/sdc2 partition 50331644
0 -1
/dev/sda6 partition 50331644
0 -2
However, in /etc/fstab:
# swap was on /dev/sda6 during installation
UUID=4870beef-bb2c-40c1-91da-f1444f90c51b none
swap sw,nofail,pri=-1 0 0
# swap on SSD Samsung /dev/sdc2
UUID=fa2b8ce4-6ce7-4fb2-ac12-475264bed20f none
swap sw,nofail,pri=-2 0 0
Does the fact that sdc2 is a SSD makes swapon override the fstab priorities?
It is suspicious that swapon prints sdc2 first in the summary. despite the
following facts:
- sdc2 priority is -2 in fstab
- sdc2 is declared after sda2 in fstab
- sdc2 is after sda2 in alphabetical order
