| 13 | Btrfs is a new filesystem with extents, writable snapshotting, | |
| 14 | support for multiple devices and many more features. | |
| 15 | ||
| 16 | Btrfs is highly experimental, and THE DISK FORMAT IS NOT YET | |
| 17 | FINALIZED. You should say N here unless you are interested in | |
| 18 | testing Btrfs with non-critical data. | |
| 19 | ||
| 20 | To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here. The | |
| 21 | module will be called btrfs. | |
| 22 | ||
| 23 | If unsure, say N. | |

| 30 | POSIX Access Control Lists (ACLs) support permissions for users and | |
| 31 | groups beyond the owner/group/world scheme. | |

| 33 | To learn more about Access Control Lists, visit the POSIX ACLs for | |
| 34 | Linux website <http://acl.bestbits.at/>. | |

| 36 | If you don't know what Access Control Lists are, say N | |

| 39 | bool "Btrfs with integrity check tool compiled in (DANGEROUS)" | |
| 40 | depends on BTRFS_FS | |
| 41 | help | |
| 42 | Adds code that examines all block write requests (including | |
| 43 | writes of the super block). The goal is to verify that the | |
| 44 | state of the filesystem on disk is always consistent, i.e., | |
| 45 | after a power-loss or kernel panic event the filesystem is | |
| 46 | in a consistent state. | |
| 47 | ||
| 48 | If the integrity check tool is included and activated in | |
| 49 | the mount options, plenty of kernel memory is used, and | |
| 50 | plenty of additional CPU cycles are spent. Enabling this | |
| 51 | functionality is not intended for normal use. | |
| 52 | ||
| 53 | In most cases, unless you are a btrfs developer who needs | |
| 54 | to verify the integrity of (super)-block write requests | |
| 55 | during the run of a regression test, say N |
