can specify a number of files by separating the names with a
':' colon. So if you wanted a job to open /dev/sda and /dev/sdb
as the two working files, you would use
- filename=/dev/sda:/dev/sdb. On Windows, disk devices are accessed
- as \\.\PhysicalDrive0 for the first device, \\.\PhysicalDrive1
- for the second etc.
- Note: Windows and FreeBSD prevent write access to areas of the disk
- containing in-use data (e.g. filesystems).
- If the wanted filename does need to include a colon, then escape that
- with a '\' character.
- For instance, if the filename is "/dev/dsk/foo@3,0:c",
- then you would use filename="/dev/dsk/foo@3,0\:c".
- '-' is a reserved name, meaning stdin or stdout. Which of the
- two depends on the read/write direction set.

opendir=str Tell fio to recursively add any file it can find in this

and is large enough for the specified write phase, nothing
will be done.
-end_fsync=bool If true, fsync file contents when the job exits.
+end_fsync=bool If true, fsync file contents when a write stage has completed.
fsync_on_close=bool If true, fio will fsync() a dirty file on close.
This differs from end_fsync in that it will happen on every
