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.

521 This device-mapper target emulates a block device that has
522 additional per-sector tags that can be used for storing
523 integrity information.
524
525 This integrity target is used with the dm-crypt target to
526 provide authenticated disk encryption or it can be used
527 standalone.

537 This device-mapper target takes a host-managed or host-aware zoned
538 block device and exposes most of its capacity as a regular block
539 device (drive-managed zoned block device) without any write
540 constraints. This is mainly intended for use with file systems that
541 do not natively support zoned block devices but still want to
542 benefit from the increased capacity offered by SMR disks. Other uses
543 by applications using raw block devices (for example object stores)
544 are also possible.
