9	  The no-op I/O scheduler is a minimal scheduler that does basic merging
10	  and sorting. Its main uses include non-disk based block devices like
11	  memory devices, and specialised software or hardware environments
12	  that do their own scheduling and require only minimal assistance from
13	  the kernel.

15config IOSCHED_DEADLINE

17	default y
18	---help---
19	  The deadline I/O scheduler is simple and compact. It will provide
20	  CSCAN service with FIFO expiration of requests, switching to
21	  a new point in the service tree and doing a batch of IO from there
22	  in case of expiry.

24config IOSCHED_CFQ
25	tristate "CFQ I/O scheduler"
26	default y
27	---help---
28	  The CFQ I/O scheduler tries to distribute bandwidth equally
29	  among all processes in the system. It should provide a fair
30	  and low latency working environment, suitable for both desktop
31	  and server systems.
32
33	  This is the default I/O scheduler.
