I/O scheduling
Input/output (I/O) scheduling is the method that computer operating systems use to decide in which order I/O operations will be submitted to storage volumes.
See Jens Axboe and I/O scheduling
Io uring
io_uring (previously known as aioring) is a Linux kernel system call interface for storage device asynchronous I/O operations addressing performance issues with similar interfaces provided by functions like / or / etc.
IOPS
Input/output operations per second (IOPS, pronounced eye-ops) is an input/output performance measurement used to characterize computer storage devices like hard disk drives (HDD), solid state drives (SSD), and storage area networks (SAN).
KernelTrap
KernelTrap was a computing news website which covered topics related to the development of free and open source operating system kernels, and especially, the Linux kernel.

See Jens Axboe and Linux kernel
Mmap
In computing, mmap(2) is a POSIX-compliant Unix system call that maps files or devices into memory.
Noop scheduler
The NOOP scheduler is the simplest I/O scheduler for the Linux kernel.
See Jens Axboe and Noop scheduler
