+dm-delay
+========
+
+Device-Mapper's "delay" target delays reads and/or writes
+and maps them to different devices.
+
+Parameters:
+    <device> <offset> <delay> [<write_device> <write_offset> <write_delay>]
+
+With separate write parameters, the first set is only used for reads.
+Delays are specified in milliseconds.
+
+Example scripts
+===============
+[[
+#!/bin/sh
+# Create device delaying rw operation for 500ms
+echo "0 `blockdev --getsize $1` delay $1 0 500" | dmsetup create delayed
+]]
+
+[[
+#!/bin/sh
+# Create device delaying only write operation for 500ms and
+# splitting reads and writes to different devices $1 $2
+echo "0 `blockdev --getsize $1` delay $1 0 0 $2 0 500" | dmsetup create delayed
+]]
