+Realtime Device Sysfs Options
+=============================
+
+When using a realtime sub-volume, the following sysfs options are supported:
+
+  /sys/fs/xfs/<dev>/rt_alloc_min
+  (Units: bytes  Min: 0  Default: 0  Max: INT_MAX)
+	When set, the file will be allocated blocks from the realtime device if the
+	initial allocation request size (in bytes) is equal to or above this value.
+	For XFS use-cases where appends are unlikely or not supported, this option
+	can be used to place smaller files on a the data device (typically an SSD),
+	while larger files are placed on the realtime device (typically an HDD).
+
+	Any files which have the realtime flag set by an ioctl call or realtime
+	inheritance flag on the directory will not be affected by this option.
+	Buffered, direct IO and pre-allocation are supported.
+
+	Setting the value to "0" disables this behavior.
