That would be my preference. Have a BFQ-variant for blk-mq as an option (default to off unless opted in by the driver or user), and not other scheduler for blk-mq. Don't bother with bfq for non blk-mq. It's not like there is any advantage in the legacy-request device even for slow devices, except for the option of having I/O scheduling. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-block" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
