Seems BFQ should be part of one of the main patterns?

http://algo.ing.unimo.it/people/paolo/disk_sched/

It claims some distro's are defaulting to BFQ as their i/o scheduler.

"BFQ is the default I/O scheduler in Manjaro, Mageia, OpenMandriva, Sabayon, Arch Linux ARM (for Marvell Kirkwood) and ROSA, as well as in the Zen Kernel, the pf-kernel, CyanoGenMod for several devices, and many kernels for smartphones. In addition, BFQ is optionally available in Arch, openSUSE, PCLinuxOS and Gentoo."

Indeed, there's a BFQ OBS repo from Takashi: https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:tiwai:bfq

But be aware, that there's a lot of discssion around BFQ upstream at the mement.

It will probably not get merged in it's current form.
