 <salt>
     The hexadecimal encoding of the salt value.
 
+<#opt_params>
+    Number of optional parameters. If there are no optional parameters,
+    the optional paramaters section can be skipped or #opt_params can be zero.
+    Otherwise #opt_params is the number of following arguments.

+    Example of optional parameters section:
+        1 ignore_corruption
+
+ignore_corruption
+    Log corrupted blocks, but allow read operations to proceed normally.
+
+restart_on_corruption
+    Restart the system when a corrupted block is discovered. This option is
+    not compatible with ignore_corruption and requires user space support to
+    avoid restart loops.
