Linux I/O Scheduler is a process of accessing the block I/O from storage volumes. I/O scheduling is sometimes called disk scheduling. Linux I/O scheduler works by managing a block device’s request queue. It selects the order of requests in the queue and at what time each request is sent to the block device. Linux I/O Scheduler manages the request queue with the goal of reducing seeks, which results in great extent for global throughput.
