  Description     : DRBD kernel modules for Linux

DRBD is a block device which is designed to build high availability
clusters by providing a virtual shared device which keeps disks in
nodes synchronised using TCP/IP. This simulates RAID 1 but avoiding
the use of uncommon hardware (shared SCSI buses or Fibre Channel).
It is currently limited to fail-over HA clusters.

This package is useful for SDS solutions requiring a DRBD version more
recent than the one in the kernel (e.g. LINSTOR). There are two
advertised ways to currently install this package: using upstream's
PPA or upstream's Proxmox packages. As some packages in the archive
(such as Incus/sid) provide support for LINSTOR, not relying on
third-party packaging feels reasonable.

I currently am looking for a sponsor for this package, and would
appreciate a review of my work here:
