writes, however a second range can be given after a comma.
See bs=.
+bssplit=str Sometimes you want even finer grained control of the
+ block sizes issued, not just an even split between them.
+ This option allows you to weight various block sizes,
+ so that you are able to define a specific amount of
+ block sizes issued. The format for this option is:
+
+ bssplit=blocksize/percentage:blocksize/percentage
+
+ for as many block sizes as needed. So if you want to define
+ a workload that has 50% 64k blocks, 10% 4k blocks, and
+ 40% 32k blocks, you would write:
+
+ bssplit=4k/10:64k/50:32k/40
+
+ Ordering does not matter. If the percentage is left blank,
+ fio will fill in the remaining values evenly. So a bssplit
+ option like this one:
+
+ bssplit=4k/50:1k/:32k/
+
+ would have 50% 4k ios, and 25% 1k and 32k ios. The percentages
+ always add up to 100, if bssplit is given a range that adds
+ up to more, it will error out.

blocksize_unaligned
bs_unaligned If this option is given, any byte size value within bsrange
may be used as a block range. This typically wont work with
sync Basic read(2) or write(2) io. lseek(2) is
used to position the io location.
+ psync Basic pread(2) or pwrite(2) io.

libaio Linux native asynchronous io.
posixaio glibc posix asynchronous io.
netsplice Like net, but uses splice/vmsplice to
map data and send/receive.

+ cpuio Doesn't transfer any data, but burns CPU
cycles according to the cpuload= and
cpucycle= options. Setting cpuload=85
will cause that job to do nothing but burn
(timestamp, block number etc.). The block
number is verified.
+ pattern Fill the IO buffers with a specific pattern,
+ that we can use to verify. Depending on the
+ width of the pattern, fio will fill 1/2/3/4
+ bytes of the buffer at the time. The pattern
+ cannot be larger than a 32-bit quantity. The
+ given pattern is given as a postfix to this
+ option, ala: verify=pattern:0x5a. It accepts
+ both hex and dec values.
+
null Only pretend to verify. Useful for testing
internals with ioengine=null, not for much
else.
size of header_interval. blocksize should divide this
evenly.
-verify_pattern=int If set, fio will fill the io buffers with this
- pattern. Fio defaults to filling with totally random
- bytes, but sometimes it's interesting to fill with a known
- pattern for io verification purposes. Depending on the
- width of the pattern, fio will fill 1/2/3/4 bytes of the
- buffer at the time. The verify_pattern cannot be larger than
- a 32-bit quantity.

verify_fatal=bool Normally fio will keep checking the entire contents
before quitting on a block verification failure. If this
option is set, fio will exit the job on the first observed
