11	 Provide block layer support for the kernel.
12
13	 Disable this option to remove the block layer support from the
14	 kernel. This may be useful for embedded devices.
15
16	 If this option is disabled:
17
18	   - block device files will become unusable
19	   - some filesystems (such as ext3) will become unavailable.
20
21	 Also, SCSI character devices and USB storage will be disabled since
22	 they make use of various block layer definitions and facilities.
23
24	 Say Y here unless you know you really don't want to mount disks and
25	 suchlike.

31	depends on !64BIT
32	default y
33	help
34	  Enable block devices or files of size 2TB and larger.
35
36	  This option is required to support the full capacity of large
37	  (2TB+) block devices, including RAID, disk, Network Block Device,
38	  Logical Volume Manager (LVM) and loopback.
39
40	  This option also enables support for single files larger than
41	  2TB.
42
43	  The ext4 filesystem requires that this feature be enabled in
44	  order to support filesystems that have the huge_file feature
45	  enabled.  Otherwise, it will refuse to mount in the read-write
46	  mode any filesystems that use the huge_file feature, which is
47	  enabled by default by mke2fs.ext4.
48
49	  The GFS2 filesystem also requires this feature.

61	  Saying Y here will enable generic SG (SCSI generic) v4 support
62	  for any block device.
63
64	  Unlike SG v3 (aka block/scsi_ioctl.c drivers/scsi/sg.c), SG v4
65	  can handle complicated SCSI commands: tagged variable length cdbs
66	  with bidirectional data transfers and generic request/response
67	  protocols (e.g. Task Management Functions and SMP in Serial
68	  Attached SCSI).
69
70	  This option is required by recent UDEV versions to properly
71	  access device serial numbers, etc.
72
73	  If unsure, say Y.

81	  normally need to manually enable this.

85config BLK_DEV_INTEGRITY
86	bool "Block layer data integrity support"
87	select CRC_T10DIF if BLK_DEV_INTEGRITY
88	---help---
89	Some storage devices allow extra information to be
90	stored/retrieved to help protect the data.  The block layer
91	data integrity option provides hooks which can be used by
92	filesystems to ensure better data integrity.
93
94	Say yes here if you have a storage device that provides the
95	T10/SCSI Data Integrity Field or the T13/ATA External Path
96	Protection.  If in doubt, say N.
97
98config BLK_DEV_ZONED
99	bool "Zoned block device support"
100	---help---
101	Block layer zoned block device support. This option enables
102	support for ZAC/ZBC host-managed and host-aware zoned block devices.
103
104	Say yes here if you have a ZAC or ZBC storage device.
105
106config BLK_DEV_THROTTLING
107	bool "Block layer bio throttling support"
108	depends on BLK_CGROUP=y
109	---help---
110	Block layer bio throttling support. It can be used to limit
111	the IO rate to a device. IO rate policies are per cgroup and
112	one needs to mount and use blkio cgroup controller for creating
113	cgroups and specifying per device IO rate policies.
114
115	See Documentation/cgroup-v1/blkio-controller.txt for more information.
116
117config BLK_DEV_THROTTLING_LOW
118	bool "Block throttling .low limit interface support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
119	depends on BLK_DEV_THROTTLING
120	---help---
121	Add .low limit interface for block throttling. The low limit is a best
122	effort limit to prioritize cgroups. Depending on the setting, the limit
123	can be used to protect cgroups in terms of bandwidth/iops and better
124	utilize disk resource.
125
126	Note, this is an experimental interface and could be changed someday.
127
128config BLK_CMDLINE_PARSER
129	bool "Block device command line partition parser"
130	---help---
131	Enabling this option allows you to specify the partition layout from
132	the kernel boot args.  This is typically of use for embedded devices
133	which don't otherwise have any standardized method for listing the
134	partitions on a block device.
135
136	See Documentation/block/cmdline-partition.txt for more information.
137
138config BLK_WBT
139	bool "Enable support for block device writeback throttling"
140	---help---
141	Enabling this option enables the block layer to throttle buffered
142	background writeback from the VM, making it more smooth and having
143	less impact on foreground operations. The throttling is done
144	dynamically on an algorithm loosely based on CoDel, factoring in
145	the realtime performance of the disk.
146
147config BLK_CGROUP_IOLATENCY
148	bool "Enable support for latency based cgroup IO protection"
149	depends on BLK_CGROUP=y
150	---help---
151	Enabling this option enables the .latency interface for IO throttling.
152	The IO controller will attempt to maintain average IO latencies below
153	the configured latency target, throttling anybody with a higher latency
154	target than the victimized group.
155
156	Note, this is an experimental interface and could be changed someday.
157
158config BLK_WBT_MQ
159	bool "Multiqueue writeback throttling"
160	default y
161	depends on BLK_WBT
162	---help---
163	Enable writeback throttling by default on multiqueue devices.
164	Multiqueue currently doesn't have support for IO scheduling,
165	enabling this option is recommended.
166
167config BLK_DEBUG_FS
168	bool "Block layer debugging information in debugfs"
169	default y
170	depends on DEBUG_FS
171	---help---
172	Include block layer debugging information in debugfs. This information
173	is mostly useful for kernel developers, but it doesn't incur any cost
174	at runtime.
175
176	Unless you are building a kernel for a tiny system, you should
177	say Y here.

188	Locking ranges for SED devices using the Opal protocol.
