Subject: [PATCH 22/79] block: rnull: add no_sched module parameter and configfs attribute
Date: Mon, 16 Feb 2026 00:35:09 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260216-rnull-v6-19-rc5-send-v1-22-de9a7af4b469@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260216-rnull-v6-19-rc5-send-v1-0-de9a7af4b469@kernel.org>
Add support for disabling the default IO scheduler by adding:
- no_sched module parameter to control scheduler selection at device
creation.
- no_sched configfs attribute (ID 11) for runtime configuration.
- Use of NO_DEFAULT_SCHEDULER flag when no_sched is enabled.
This allows bypassing the default 'mq-deadline' scheduler and using 'none'
instead, which can improve performance for certain workloads. The flag
selection logic is updated to use compound assignment operators for better
readability.
