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"
	# If BLK_CGROUP is a module, CFQ has to be built as module.
	depends on (BLK_CGROUP=m && m) || !BLK_CGROUP || BLK_CGROUP=y
	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.

	  Note: If BLK_CGROUP=m, then CFQ can be built only as module.

config CFQ_GROUP_IOSCHED
	bool "CFQ Group Scheduling support"
	depends on IOSCHED_CFQ && BLK_CGROUP
	default n
	---help---
	  Enable group IO scheduling in CFQ.

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