| Provide block layer support for the kernel. | |
| Disable this option to remove the block layer support from the | |
| kernel. This may be useful for embedded devices. | |
| If this option is disabled: | |
| - block device files will become unusable | |
| - some filesystems (such as ext3) will become unavailable. | |
| Also, SCSI character devices and USB storage will be disabled since | |
| they make use of various block layer definitions and facilities. | |
| Say Y here unless you know you really don't want to mount disks and | |
| suchlike. | |

| select BLK_CGROUP_RWSTAT | |
| help | |
| Block layer bio throttling support. It can be used to limit | |
| the IO rate to a device. IO rate policies are per cgroup and | |
| one needs to mount and use blkio cgroup controller for creating | |
| cgroups and specifying per device IO rate policies. | |
| See Documentation/admin-guide/cgroup-v1/blkio-controller.rst for more information. | |
| config BLK_DEV_THROTTLING_LOW | |
| bool "Block throttling .low limit interface support (EXPERIMENTAL)" | |
| depends on BLK_DEV_THROTTLING | |
| help | |
| Add .low limit interface for block throttling. The low limit is a best | |
| effort limit to prioritize cgroups. Depending on the setting, the limit | |
| can be used to protect cgroups in terms of bandwidth/iops and better | |
| utilize disk resource. | |
| Note, this is an experimental interface and could be changed someday. | |
| config BLK_WBT | |
| bool "Enable support for block device writeback throttling" | |
| help | |
| Enabling this option enables the block layer to throttle buffered | |
| background writeback from the VM, making it more smooth and having | |
| less impact on foreground operations. The throttling is done | |
| dynamically on an algorithm loosely based on CoDel, factoring in | |
| the realtime performance of the disk. | |
| config BLK_WBT_MQ | |

| help | |
| Enabling this option enables the .latency interface for IO throttling. | |
| The IO controller will attempt to maintain average IO latencies below | |
| the configured latency target, throttling anybody with a higher latency | |
| target than the victimized group. | |
| Note, this is an experimental interface and could be changed someday. | |
| config BLK_CGROUP_FC_APPID | |
| bool "Enable support to track FC I/O Traffic across cgroup applications" | |
| depends on BLK_CGROUP && NVME_FC | |
| help | |
| Enabling this option enables the support to track FC I/O traffic across | |
| cgroup applications. It enables the Fabric and the storage targets to | |
| identify, monitor, and handle FC traffic based on VM tags by inserting | |
| application specific identification into the FC frame. | |

| Enabling this option enables the .weight interface for cost | |
| model based proportional IO control. The IO controller | |
| distributes IO capacity between different groups based on | |
| their share of the overall weight distribution. | |
| config BLK_CGROUP_IOPRIO | |
| bool "Cgroup I/O controller for assigning an I/O priority class" | |
| depends on BLK_CGROUP | |
| help | |
| Enable the .prio interface for assigning an I/O priority class to | |
| requests. The I/O priority class affects the order in which an I/O | |
| scheduler and block devices process requests. Only some I/O schedulers | |
| and some block devices support I/O priorities. | |

| help | |
| Include block layer debugging information in debugfs. This information | |
| is mostly useful for kernel developers, but it doesn't incur any cost | |
| at runtime. | |
| Unless you are building a kernel for a tiny system, you should | |
| say Y here. | |

| Locking ranges for SED devices using the Opal protocol. | |
| config BLK_INLINE_ENCRYPTION | |
