+ tristate "Block Devices Snapshots Module (blksnap)"
+ help
+ Allow to create snapshots and track block changes for block devices.
+ Designed for creating backups for block devices. Snapshots are
+ temporary and are released when backup is completed. Change block
+ tracking allows to create incremental or differential backups.

+ default y
+ help
+ The difference storage for a snapshot can be a regular file or a
+ block device. We can work with a block device through the interface
+ of a regular file. However, direct management of I/O units should
+ allow for higher performance.

+ default n
+ help
+ Theoretical asynchronous algorithm for processing I/O units should
+ have higher performance. However, an attempt to confirm this on test
+ runs did not bring any results.
