fill_device=bool Sets size to something really large and waits for ENOSPC (no
space left on device) as the terminating condition. Only makes
sense with sequential write. For a read workload, the mount
- point will be filled first then IO started on the result.

blocksize=int
bs=int The block size used for the io units. Defaults to 4k. Values
option is set, fio will exit the job on the first observed
failure.
+verify_dump=bool If set, dump the contents of both the original data
+ block and the data block we read off disk to files. This

+ corruption occurred. On by default.

verify_async=int Fio will normally verify IO inline from the submitting
thread. This option takes an integer describing how many
async offload threads to create for IO verification instead,
