10335debeeSAlexey Dobriyan	  Btrfs is a new filesystem with extents, writable snapshotting,
11335debeeSAlexey Dobriyan	  support for multiple devices and many more features.
12335debeeSAlexey Dobriyan
13335debeeSAlexey Dobriyan	  Btrfs is highly experimental, and THE DISK FORMAT IS NOT YET
14335debeeSAlexey Dobriyan	  FINALIZED.  You should say N here unless you are interested in
15335debeeSAlexey Dobriyan	  testing Btrfs with non-critical data.

17335debeeSAlexey Dobriyan	  To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here. The
18335debeeSAlexey Dobriyan	  module will be called btrfs.

20335debeeSAlexey Dobriyan	  If unsure, say N.

39c975dd46SStefan Behrens	  Adds code that examines all block write requests (including
40c975dd46SStefan Behrens	  writes of the super block). The goal is to verify that the
41c975dd46SStefan Behrens	  state of the filesystem on disk is always consistent, i.e.,
42c975dd46SStefan Behrens	  after a power-loss or kernel panic event the filesystem is
43c975dd46SStefan Behrens	  in a consistent state.

45c975dd46SStefan Behrens	  If the integrity check tool is included and activated in
46c975dd46SStefan Behrens	  the mount options, plenty of kernel memory is used, and
47c975dd46SStefan Behrens	  plenty of additional CPU cycles are spent. Enabling this
