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.

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.

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.

33 This is the default I/O scheduler.
