- tristate "RAID-6 mode"
- depends on BLK_DEV_MD
- ---help---
- A RAID-6 set of N drives with a capacity of C MB per drive
- provides the capacity of C * (N - 2) MB, and protects
- against a failure of any two drives. For a given sector
- (row) number, (N - 2) drives contain data sectors, and two
- drives contains two independent redundancy syndromes. Like
- RAID-5, RAID-6 distributes the syndromes across the drives
- in one of the available parity distribution methods.
-
- RAID-6 requires mdadm-1.5.0 or later, available at:
-
- ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/raid/mdadm/
-
- If you want to use such a RAID-6 set, say Y. To compile
- this code as a module, choose M here: the module will be
- called raid6.
