config MARS
	tristate "storage system MARS (EXPERIMENTAL)"
	default n
	---help---
	Experimental storage System. Only compile as a module!

config MARS_BIGMODULE
	tristate "compile all MARS modules into a single kernel module"
	depends on MARS
	default m
	select MARS_HAVE_BIGMODULE
	---help---
	Normally ON. Switch off only for EXPERIMENTS!

config MARS_MEM_RETRY
	bool "make MARS memory allocation more robust"
	depends on MARS
	default y
	---help---
	Normally ON. Switch only off for systems having very low memory.

config MARS_LOGFILE
	string "full path to the logfile"
	depends on MARS
	default "/mars/log.txt"
	---help---
	Path to the logfile where all MARS messages go to.
	The logfile must already exist in order to be appended.
	Logiles can be rotated by renaming them and creating
	a new empty file in place of the old one.
	When none exists, messages are either reported to syslog when
	CONFIG_MARS_USE_SYSLOG	is set, or else MARS will be qiet.

config MARS_USE_SYSLOG
	bool "use syslog for messages"
	depends on MARS
	default n
	---help---
	Normally OFF.
	When switched on (and no logfile exists), the syslog
	may get flooded by printk() messages, leading to performance
	problems if remote syslog forwarding is enabled (and possibly
	in other cases). Thus we recommend to prefer file logging.
	When this option is off, the logfile will be used (if one exists).

config MARS_SCAN_INTERVAL
	int "re-scanning of symlinks in /mars/ (in seconds)"
	depends on MARS
	default 5
	---help---
	May influence the system load; dont use too low nubmers.

config MARS_PROPAGATE_INTERVAL
	int "network propagation delay of changes in /mars/ (in seconds)"
	depends on MARS
	default 5
	---help---
	May influence the system load; dont use too low nubmers.

config MARS_FAST_TRIGGER
	bool "fast internal triggering"
	depends on MARS
	default y
	---help---
	Normally ON. Switch off in case of endless trigger loops

config MARS_NETIO_TIMEOUT
	int "timeout for remote IO operations (in seconds)"
	depends on MARS
	default 30
	---help---
	In case of network hangs, don't wait forever, but rather
	abort with -ENOTCONN
	when == 0, wait forever (may lead to hanging operations
	similar to NFS hard mounts)

config MARS_MEM_PREALLOC
	bool "avoid memory fragmentation by preallocation"
	depends on MARS
	default y
	---help---
	Normally ON. Switch off only for EXPERIMENTS!

#config MARS_HUNG
#	bool "hangup on kernel stacktrace (EXPERIMENTAL!!!)"
#	depends on MARS && MARS_BIGMODULE!=m
#	default n
#	---help---
#	Normally OFF. Switch on only for EXPERIMENTS!

config MARS_LOGROT
	bool "allow logrotate during operation"
	depends on MARS
	default y
	---help---
	Normally ON. Switch off only for EXPERIMENTS!

config MARS_MIN_SPACE
	bool "check for filesystem overflow in /mars"
	depends on MARS
	default y
	---help---
	Normally ON. Switch off only for EXPERIMENTS!

config MARS_MIN_SPACE_BASE
	int "free space in /mars/ (hard limit in gigabytes)"
	depends on MARS && MARS_MIN_SPACE
	default 8
	---help---
	when this limit is exceeded, all write requests to /mars/
	will stop. This affects not only write IO to /dev/mars/*,
	but also logfile transfers etc.
	In order to retain full operations, you _need_ to implement
	your own monitoring which _must_ warn you long before this
	hard limit catches you.

config MARS_MIN_SPACE_PERCENT
	int "free space in /mars/ (hard limit in percent)"
	depends on MARS && MARS_MIN_SPACE
	default 0
	---help---
	this limit is in addition to CONFIG_MARS_MIN_SPACE_BASE.

config MARS_PREFER_SIO
	bool "prefer sio bricks instead of aio"
	depends on MARS
	default n
	---help---
	Normally OFF for production systems.
	Only use as alternative for testing.
