Block cgroup core can be built as module; however, it isn't too useful
as blk-throttle can only be built-in and cfq-iosched is usually the
default built-in scheduler. Scheduled blkcg cleanup requires calling
into blkcg from block core. To simplify that, disallow building blkcg
as module by making CONFIG_BLK_CGROUP bool.
If building blkcg core as module really matters, which I doubt, we can
revisit it after blkcg API cleanup.
-v2: Vivek pointed out that IOSCHED_CFQ was incorrectly updated to
depend on BLK_CGROUP. Fixed.

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.

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.

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.
