Description:
		This is the smallest unit the storage device can write
		without resorting to read-modify-write operation.  It is
		usually the same as the logical block size but may be
		bigger.  One example is SATA drives with 4KB sectors
		that expose a 512-byte logical block size to the

		This is the smallest unit a physical storage device can
		write atomically.  It is usually the same as the logical
		block size but may be bigger.  One example is SATA
		drives with 4KB sectors that expose a 512-byte logical
		block size to the operating system.  For stacked block
		devices the physical_block_size variable contains the
		maximum physical_block_size of the component devices.

What:		/sys/block/<disk>/queue/minimum_io_size

Contact:	Martin K. Petersen <martin.petersen@oracle.com>
Description:
		Storage devices may report a preferred minimum I/O size,
		which is the smallest request the device can perform
		without incurring a read-modify-write penalty.  For disk
		drives this is often the physical block size.  For RAID
		arrays it is often the stripe chunk size.
		Storage devices may report a granularity or preferred
		minimum I/O size which is the smallest request the
		device can perform without incurring a performance
		penalty.  For disk drives this is often the physical
		block size.  For RAID arrays it is often the stripe
		chunk size.  A properly aligned multiple of
		minimum_io_size is the preferred request size for
		workloads where a high number of I/O operations is
		desired.

What:		/sys/block/<disk>/queue/optimal_io_size
Date:		April 2009
Contact:	Martin K. Petersen <martin.petersen@oracle.com>
Description:
		Storage devices may report an optimal I/O size, which is
		the device's preferred unit of receiving I/O.  This is
		rarely reported for disk drives.  For RAID devices it is
		usually the stripe width or the internal block size.
		the device's preferred unit for sustained I/O.  This is
		rarely reported for disk drives.  For RAID arrays it is
		usually the stripe width or the internal track size.  A
		properly aligned multiple of optimal_io_size is the
		preferred request size for workloads where sustained
		throughput is desired.  If no optimal I/O size is
		reported this file contains 0.
