randrepeat=bool For random IO workloads, seed the generator in a predictable
way so that results are repeatable across repetitions.
+fadvise_hint=bool By default, fio will use fadvise() to advise the kernel
+ on what IO patterns it is likely to issue. Sometimes you
+ want to test specific IO patterns without telling the
+ kernel about it, in which case you can disable this option.
+ If set, fio will use POSIX_FADV_SEQUENTIAL for sequential
+ IO and POSIX_FADV_RANDOM for random IO.

size=siint The total size of file io for this job. This may describe
the size of the single file the job uses, or it may be
divided between the number of files in the job. If the
crc32 Use a crc32 sum of the data area and store
it in the header of each block.
+ null Only pretend to verify. Useful for testing
+ internals with ioengine=null, not for much
+ else.
+
This option can be used for repeated burn-in tests of a
system to make sure that the written data is also
correctly read back.
+verifysort=bool If set, fio will sort written verify blocks when it deems
+ it faster to read them back in a sorted manner. This is
+ often the case when overwriting an existing file, since
+ the blocks are already laid out in the file system. You
+ can ignore this option unless doing huge amounts of really
+ fast IO where the red-black tree sorting CPU time becomes
+ significant.

stonewall Wait for preceeding jobs in the job file to exit, before
starting this one. Can be used to insert serialization
points in the job file. A stone wall also implies starting
