or receive, if the latter only the port
argument is used.
+ external Prefix to specify loading an external
+ IO engine object file. Append the engine
+ filename, eg ioengine=external:/tmp/foo.o
+ to load ioengine foo.o in /tmp.
+
iodepth=int This defines how many io units to keep in flight against
the file. The default is 1 for each file defined in this
job, can be overridden with a larger value for higher
concurrency.
+iodepth_batch=int This defines how many pieces of IO to submit at once.
+ It defaults to the same as iodepth, but can be set lower
+ if one so desires.
+
+iodepth_low=int The low water mark indicating when to start filling
+ the queue again. Defaults to the same as iodepth, meaning
+ that fio will attempt to keep the queue full at all times.
+ If iodepth is set to eg 16 and iodepth_low is set to 4, then
+ after fio has filled the queue of 16 requests, it will let
+ the depth drain down to 4 before starting to fill it again.
+
direct=bool If value is true, use non-buffered io. This is usually
O_DIRECT.

The client number is printed, along with the group id and error of that
thread. Below is the io statistics, here for writes. In the order listed,
time from when IO leaves fio and when it gets completed.
The numbers follow the same pattern as the IO depths,
meaning that 2=1.6% means that 1.6% of the IO completed
- within 2 msecs, 16=12.8% means that 12.8% of the IO
- took more than 8 msecs, but less than (or equal to) 16 msecs.
+ within 2 msecs, 20=12.8% means that 12.8% of the IO
+ took more than 10 msecs, but less than (or equal to) 20 msecs.
After each client has been listed, the group statistics are printed. They
will look like this:
