+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"
+	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.
+
+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_BFQ
+	tristate "BFQ I/O scheduler"
+	default y
+	---help---
+	  The BFQ I/O scheduler tries to distribute bandwidth among
+	  all processes according to their weights.
+	  It aims at distributing the bandwidth as desired, independently of
+	  the disk parameters and with any workload. It also tries to
+	  guarantee low latency to interactive and soft real-time
+	  applications. If compiled built-in (saying Y here), BFQ can
+	  be configured to support hierarchical scheduling.
+
+config CGROUP_BFQIO
+	bool "BFQ hierarchical scheduling support"
+	depends on CGROUPS && IOSCHED_BFQ=y
+	default n
+	---help---
+	  Enable hierarchical scheduling in BFQ, using the cgroups
+	  filesystem interface.  The name of the subsystem will be
+	  bfqio.
+

+	prompt "Default I/O scheduler"

+	  Select the I/O scheduler which will be used by default for all
+	  block devices.
