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

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.

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

570	---help---
571	  This device-mapper target takes two devices, one device to use
572	  normally, one to log all write operations done to the first device.
573	  This is for use by file system developers wishing to verify that
574	  their fs is writing a consistent file system at all times by allowing
575	  them to replay the log in a variety of ways and to check the
576	  contents.

592	  This device-mapper target emulates a block device that has
593	  additional per-sector tags that can be used for storing
594	  integrity information.
595
596	  This integrity target is used with the dm-crypt target to
597	  provide authenticated disk encryption or it can be used

607	---help---
608	  This device-mapper target takes a host-managed or host-aware zoned
609	  block device and exposes most of its capacity as a regular block
610	  device (drive-managed zoned block device) without any write
611	  constraints. This is mainly intended for use with file systems that
612	  do not natively support zoned block devices but still want to
613	  benefit from the increased capacity offered by SMR disks. Other uses
614	  by applications using raw block devices (for example object stores)
615	  are also possible.

626	---help---
627	  This device-mapper target takes a device and keeps a log of all
628	  changes using free blocks identified by issuing a trim command.
629	  This can then be restored by running a command line utility,
630	  or committed by simply replacing the target.
