IIUC it should read

      -A      This option causes swapctl to read the /etc/fstab file for
              devices and files with a ``sw'' or ``dp'' type, and adds all
              ``sw'' type entries as swap devices and a ``dp'' type entry
              as the dump device.

instead.

BTW, SWAP_DUMPOFF should probably be documented in swapctl(2).
