13 Disable this option to remove the block layer support from the
14 kernel. This may be useful for embedded devices.
15
16 If this option is disabled:
17
18 - block device files will become unusable
19 - some filesystems (such as ext3) will become unavailable.
20
21 Also, SCSI character devices and USB storage will be disabled since
22 they make use of various block layer definitions and facilities.

37 Saying Y here will enable generic SG (SCSI generic) v4 support
38 for any block device.
39
40 Unlike SG v3 (aka block/scsi_ioctl.c drivers/scsi/sg.c), SG v4
41 can handle complicated SCSI commands: tagged variable length cdbs
42 with bidirectional data transfers and generic request/response
43 protocols (e.g. Task Management Functions and SMP in Serial
44 Attached SCSI).

86 ---help---
87 Block layer bio throttling support. It can be used to limit
88 the IO rate to a device. IO rate policies are per cgroup and
89 one needs to mount and use blkio cgroup controller for creating
90 cgroups and specifying per device IO rate policies.

98 Add .low limit interface for block throttling. The low limit is a best

100 can be used to protect cgroups in terms of bandwidth/iops and better
101 utilize disk resource.

108 Enabling this option allows you to specify the partition layout from
109 the kernel boot args. This is typically of use for embedded devices
110 which don't otherwise have any standardized method for listing the
111 partitions on a block device.

118 Enabling this option enables the block layer to throttle buffered
119 background writeback from the VM, making it more smooth and having
120 less impact on foreground operations. The throttling is done
121 dynamically on an algorithm loosely based on CoDel, factoring in
122 the realtime performance of the disk.

127 ---help---
128 Enabling this option enables the .latency interface for IO throttling.
129 The IO controller will attempt to maintain average IO latencies below
130 the configured latency target, throttling anybody with a higher latency
131 target than the victimized group.
