[PATCH 1/2] md: Add configurability for consistency check feature

From: Ralph Mueck <hidden>
Date: 2014-03-17 15:00:40
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: software raid (multiple disks) support, the rest · Maintainers: Song Liu, Yu Kuai, Linus Torvalds

This patch adds sysfs configurability for the md level-1 RAID
consistency check.
The feature introduces a new attribute in sysfs named "safe_read".
To toggle consistency checks on/off, simply echo safe_read in
/sys/block/md*/md/safe_read.
