Disable this option to remove the block layer support from the kernel. This may be useful for embedded devices. If this option is disabled: - block device files will become unusable - some filesystems (such as ext3) will become unavailable. Also, SCSI character devices and USB storage will be disabled since they make use of various block layer definitions and facilities. |

Enable block devices of size 2TB and larger. This option is required to support the full capacity of large (2TB+) block devices, including RAID, disk, Network Block Device, Logical Volume Manager (LVM) and loopback. For example, RAID devices are frequently bigger than the capacity of the largest individual hard drive. This option is not required if you have individual disk drives which total 2TB+ and you are not aggregating the capacity into a large block device (e.g. using RAID or LVM). If unsure, say N. |

Saying Y here will enable generic SG (SCSI generic) v4 support for any block device. Unlike SG v3 (aka block/scsi_ioctl.c drivers/scsi/sg.c), SG v4 can handle complicated SCSI commands: tagged variable length cdbs with bidirectional data transfers and generic request/response protocols (e.g. Task Management Functions and SMP in Serial Attached SCSI). If unsure, say N. |

config BLK_DEV_INTEGRITY bool "Block layer data integrity support" ---help--- Some storage devices allow extra information to be stored/retrieved to help protect the data. The block layer data integrity option provides hooks which can be used by filesystems to ensure better data integrity. Say yes here if you have a storage device that provides the T10/SCSI Data Integrity Field or the T13/ATA External Path Protection. If in doubt, say N. |
