| 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. |

Jens Axboe | 492af63 | 2009-10-03 09:37:51 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 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. |
