This option is mandatory to support zoned block devices. For these
123
+
devices, the realtime subvolume must be backed by a zoned block
124
+
device and a regular block device used as the main device (for
125
+
metadata). If the zoned block device is a host-managed SMR hard-disk
126
+
containing conventional zones at the beginning of its address space,
127
+
XFS will use the disk conventional zones as the main device and the
128
+
remaining sequential write required zones as the backing storage for
129
+
the realtime subvolume.
