location should point there. So if it's mounted in /huge,
you would use mem=mmaphuge:/huge/somefile.
+iomem_align=int This indiciates the memory alignment of the IO memory buffers.
+ Note that the given alignment is applied to the first IO unit
+ buffer, if using iodepth the alignment of the following buffers
+ are given by the bs used. In other words, if using a bs that is
+ a multiple of the page sized in the system, all buffers will
+ be aligned to this value. If using a bs that is not page
+ aligned, the alignment of subsequent IO memory buffers is the
+ sum of the iomem_align and bs used.
+
hugepage-size=int
Defines the size of a huge page. Must at least be equal
to the system setting, see /proc/meminfo. Defaults to 4MiB.
pre_read=bool If this is given, files will be pre-read into memory before
starting the given IO operation. This will also clear
the 'invalidate' flag, since it is pointless to pre-read
- and then drop the cache.
+ and then drop the cache. This will only work for IO engines
+ that are seekable, since they allow you to read the same data
+ multiple times. Thus it will not work on eg network or splice
+ IO.
unlink=bool Unlink the job files when done. Not the default, as repeated
runs of that job would then waste time recreating the file
before quitting on a block verification failure. If this
option is set, fio will exit the job on the first observed
failure.
+
+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,
+ causing fio to offload the duty of verifying IO contents
+ to one or more separate threads. If using this offload
+ option, even sync IO engines can benefit from using an
+ iodepth setting higher than 1, as it allows them to have
+ IO in flight while verifies are running.
+
+verify_async_cpus=str Tell fio to set the given CPU affinity on the
+ async IO verification threads. See cpus_allowed for the
+ format used.
stonewall Wait for preceeding jobs in the job file to exit, before
starting this one. Can be used to insert serialization
