18 This driver lets you combine several hard disk partitions into one
19 logical block device. This can be used to simply append one
20 partition to another one or to combine several redundant hard disks
21 into a RAID1/4/5 device so as to provide protection against hard
22 disk failures. This is called "Software RAID" since the combining of
23 the partitions is done by the kernel. "Hardware RAID" means that the
24 combining is done by a dedicated controller; if you have such a
25 controller, you do not need to say Y here.

NeilBrownd9f691c2012-08-02 08:35:43 +1000375 A dm target that supports RAID1, RAID10, RAID4, RAID5 and RAID6 mappings
NeilBrown9d09e662011-01-13 20:00:02 +0000376
377 A RAID-5 set of N drives with a capacity of C MB per drive provides
378 the capacity of C * (N - 1) MB, and protects against a failure
379 of a single drive. For a given sector (row) number, (N - 1) drives
380 contain data sectors, and one drive contains the parity protection.
381 For a RAID-4 set, the parity blocks are present on a single drive,
382 while a RAID-5 set distributes the parity across the drives in one
383 of the available parity distribution methods.
384
385 A RAID-6 set of N drives with a capacity of C MB per drive
386 provides the capacity of C * (N - 2) MB, and protects
387 against a failure of any two drives. For a given sector
388 (row) number, (N - 2) drives contain data sectors, and two
389 drives contains two independent redundancy syndromes. Like
390 RAID-5, RAID-6 distributes the syndromes across the drives
391 in one of the available parity distribution methods.
