What does the “persistent” in GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX do?





.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}

I was editing my Grub file to disable the splash screen, and I saw this line



GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="persistent"


What does this command do? Google doesn't help, talking about USB persistance without mentionning Grub itself, and Grub documentation only says that GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX is used for recovery options.
