201da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  logical block device. This can be used to simply append one
211da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  partition to another one or to combine several redundant hard disks
221da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  into a RAID1/4/5 device so as to provide protection against hard
231da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  disk failures. This is called "Software RAID" since the combining of
241da177e4SLinus Torvalds	  the partitions is done by the kernel. "Hardware RAID" means that the

6173b1a94c8SDamien Le Moal	  This device-mapper target takes a host-managed or host-aware zoned
6183b1a94c8SDamien Le Moal	  block device and exposes most of its capacity as a regular block
6193b1a94c8SDamien Le Moal	  device (drive-managed zoned block device) without any write
6203b1a94c8SDamien Le Moal	  constraints. This is mainly intended for use with file systems that
6213b1a94c8SDamien Le Moal	  do not natively support zoned block devices but still want to
6223b1a94c8SDamien Le Moal	  benefit from the increased capacity offered by SMR disks. Other uses
6233b1a94c8SDamien Le Moal	  by applications using raw block devices (for example object stores)
6243b1a94c8SDamien Le Moal	  are also possible.

6273b1a94c8SDamien Le Moal	  be called dm-zoned.
