16config BLK_DEV_MD
17	tristate "RAID support"
18	---help---
19	  This driver lets you combine several hard disk partitions into one
20	  logical block device. This can be used to simply append one
21	  partition to another one or to combine several redundant hard disks
22	  into a RAID1/4/5 device so as to provide protection against hard
23	  disk failures. This is called "Software RAID" since the combining of
24	  the partitions is done by the kernel. "Hardware RAID" means that the
25	  combining is done by a dedicated controller; if you have such a
26	  controller, you do not need to say Y here.
27
28	  More information about Software RAID on Linux is contained in the
29	  Software RAID mini-HOWTO, available from
30	  <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. There you will also learn

41	  arrays as part of its boot process.
42
43	  If you don't use raid and say Y, this autodetection can cause
44	  a several-second delay in the boot time due to various

68	  partitions into one logical device in such a fashion as to fill them
69	  up evenly, one chunk here and one chunk there. This will increase
70	  the throughput rate if the partitions reside on distinct disks.

86	  A RAID-1 set consists of several disk drives which are exact copies
87	  of each other.  In the event of a mirror failure, the RAID driver
88	  will continue to use the operational mirrors in the set, providing
89	  an error free MD (multiple device) to the higher levels of the

542	  Enables Android Verified Boot platform-specific error
543	  behavior. In particular, it will modify the vbmeta partition

565	  This device-mapper target creates a device that supports an arbitrary
566	  mapping of fixed-size regions of I/O across a fixed set of paths.
567	  The path used for any specific region can be switched dynamically
568	  by sending the target a message.

578	---help---
579	  This device-mapper target takes two devices, one device to use
580	  normally, one to log all write operations done to the first device.
581	  This is for use by file system developers wishing to verify that
582	  their fs is writing a consistent file system at all times by allowing
583	  them to replay the log in a variety of ways and to check the
584	  contents.
585

587	  be called dm-log-writes.

599	  This device-mapper target emulates a block device that has
600	  additional per-sector tags that can be used for storing
601	  integrity information.
602
603	  This integrity target is used with the dm-crypt target to
604	  provide authenticated disk encryption or it can be used
605	  standalone.

612	depends on BLK_DEV_DM
613	depends on BLK_DEV_ZONED
614	---help---
615	  This device-mapper target takes a host-managed or host-aware zoned
616	  block device and exposes most of its capacity as a regular block
617	  device (drive-managed zoned block device) without any write
618	  constraints. This is mainly intended for use with file systems that
619	  do not natively support zoned block devices but still want to
620	  benefit from the increased capacity offered by SMR disks. Other uses
621	  by applications using raw block devices (for example object stores)
622	  are also possible.
623
624	  To compile this code as a module, choose M here: the module will
625	  be called dm-zoned.

632	select DM_BUFIO
633	---help---
634	  This device-mapper target takes a device and keeps a log of all
635	  changes using free blocks identified by issuing a trim command.
636	  This can then be restored by running a command line utility,
637	  or committed by simply replacing the target.
638
639	  If unsure, say N.
