211 sync_speed_max
212 This are similar to /proc/sys/dev/raid/speed_limit_{min,max}
213 however they only apply to the particular array.
214 If no value has been written to these, of if the word 'system'
215 is written, then the system-wide value is used. If a value,
216 in kibibytes-per-second is written, then it is used.
217 When the files are read, they show the currently active value
218 followed by "(local)" or "(system)" depending on whether it is
219 a locally set or system-wide value.

224 sectors in total that could need to be processed. The two
225 numbers are separated by a '/' thus effectively showing one
226 value, a fraction of the process that is complete.

228 sync_speed
229 This shows the current actual speed, in K/sec, of the current
230 sync_action. It is averaged over the last 30 seconds.
