+    <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-udevd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> rules
+    to automatically apply I/O cost solutions to <filename>/sys/fs/cgroup/io.cost.*</filename>.</para>

+    <para>The qos and model values are calculated based on benchmarks collected on the

+    project and turned into a set of solutions that go from most to least isolated.
+    Isolation allows the system to remain responsive in face of high I/O load.
+    Which solutions are available for a device can be queried from the udev metadata attached to it. By
+    default the naive solution is used, which provides the most bandwidth.</para>
