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.

config IOSCHED_ROW
	tristate "ROW I/O scheduler"
	default y
	---help---
	  The ROW I/O scheduler gives priority to READ requests over the
	  WRITE requests when dispatching, without starving WRITE requests.
	  Requests are kept in priority queues. Dispatching is done in a RR
	  manner when the dispatch quantum for each queue is calculated
	  according to queue priority.
	  Most suitable for mobile devices.

config IOSCHED_SIO
	tristate "Simple I/O scheduler"
	default y
	---help---
	  The Simple I/O scheduler is an extremely simple scheduler,
	  based on noop and deadline, that relies on deadlines to
	  ensure fairness. The algorithm does not do any sorting but
	  basic merging, trying to keep a minimum overhead. It is aimed
	  mainly for aleatory access devices (eg: flash devices).

choice
	prompt "Default I/O scheduler"
	default DEFAULT_CFQ
	help
	  Select the I/O scheduler which will be used by default for all
	  block devices.

	config DEFAULT_DEADLINE
		bool "Deadline" if IOSCHED_DEADLINE=y

	config DEFAULT_CFQ
		bool "CFQ" if IOSCHED_CFQ=y

    config DEFAULT_ROW
        bool "ROW" if IOSCHED_ROW=y

    config DEFAULT_SIO
        bool "SIO" if IOSCHED_SIO=y

	config DEFAULT_NOOP
		bool "No-op"

endchoice

config DEFAULT_IOSCHED
	string
	default "deadline" if DEFAULT_DEADLINE
	default "cfq" if DEFAULT_CFQ
    default "row" if DEFAULT_ROW
    default "sio" if DEFAULT_SIO
	default "noop" if DEFAULT_NOOP
