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 Axboe492af632009-10-03 09:37:51 +020019 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.

77 The Kyber I/O scheduler is a low-overhead scheduler suitable for
