I think there's room for both. Checksumming at the block level, below md
RAID so presumably in a DM target, could help avoid silent data
corruption in such a way that the md layer could reconstruct valid data.
Checksumming at the filesystem level doesn't give you reconstruction -
unless you add redundancy/RAID functions into the filesystem, which is a
whole other discussion.
Cheers,
John.
