config IOSCHED_NOOP
bool
default y
---help---
The no-op I/O scheduler is a minimal scheduler that does basic merging
and sorting. Its main uses include non-disk based block devices like
memory devices, and specialised software or hardware environments
that do their own scheduling and require only minimal assistance from
the kernel.
config IOSCHED_DEADLINE
tristate "Deadline I/O scheduler"
default y
---help---
The deadline I/O scheduler is simple and compact. It will provide
CSCAN service with FIFO expiration of requests, switching to
a new point in the service tree and doing a batch of IO from there
in case of expiry.
config IOSCHED_CFQ
tristate "CFQ I/O scheduler"
default y
---help---
The CFQ I/O scheduler tries to distribute bandwidth equally
among all processes in the system. It should provide a fair
and low latency working environment, suitable for both desktop
and server systems.
This is the default I/O scheduler.
config CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED
bool "CFQ Group Scheduling support"
depends on IOSCHED_CFQ && CGROUPS
select BLK_CGROUP
default n
---help---
Enable group IO scheduling in CFQ.
config DEBUG_CFQ_IOSCHED
bool "Debug CFQ Scheduling"
depends on CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED
select DEBUG_BLK_CGROUP
default n
---help---
Enable CFQ IO scheduling debugging in CFQ. Currently it makes
blktrace output more verbose.

Select the I/O scheduler which will be used by default for all
block devices.
