+A \fBzoned_abs\fR distribution works exactly like the\fBzoned\fR, except that
+it takes absolute sizes. For example, let's say you wanted to define access
+according to the following criteria:

+For both \fBzoned\fR and \fBzoned_abs\fR, fio supports defining up to 256
+separate zones.
+.P
+Similarly to how \fBbssplit\fR works for setting ranges and percentages
of block sizes. Like \fBbssplit\fR, it's possible to specify separate
zones for reads, writes, and trims. If just one set is given, it'll apply to
all of them.
