.TP
+.BI file_append \fR=\fPbool
+Perform IO after the end of the file. Normally fio will operate within the
+size of a file. If this option is set, then fio will append to the file
+instead. This has identical behavior to setting \fRoffset\fP to the size
+of a file. This option is ignored on non-regular files.
+.TP
.BI blocksize \fR=\fPint[,int] "\fR,\fB bs" \fR=\fPint[,int]
Block size for I/O units. Default: 4k. Values for reads, writes, and trims
can be specified separately in the format \fIread\fR,\fIwrite\fR,\fItrim\fR
