\fIupper\fR may contain a suffix as described above. If an option allows two
sets of ranges, they are separated with a `,' or `/' character. For example:
`8\-8k/8M\-4G'.
+.TP
+.I float_list
+List of floating numbers: A list of floating numbers, separated by
+a ':' charcater.

.TP
.BI name \fR=\fPstr
Unless \fBnrfiles\fR and \fBfilesize\fR options are given, this amount will be
divided between the available files for the job. If not set, fio will use the
full size of the given files or devices. If the the files do not exist, size
-must be given.
+must be given. It is also possible to give size as a percentage between 1 and
+100. If size=20% is given, fio will use 20% of the full size of the given files
+or devices.
.TP
.BI fill_device \fR=\fPbool "\fR,\fB fill_fs" \fR=\fPbool
Sets size to something really large and waits for ENOSPC (no space left on

.TP
+.B rdma
+The RDMA I/O engine supports both RDMA memory semantics (RDMA_WRITE/RDMA_READ)
+and channel semantics (Send/Recv) for the InfiniBand, RoCE and iWARP protocols.
+.TP
.B external
Loads an external I/O engine object file. Append the engine filename as
`:\fIenginepath\fR'.
this parameter is given, a new offset will be chosen without looking at past
I/O history. This parameter is mutually exclusive with \fBverify\fR.
.TP
-.B softrandommap
+.BI softrandommap \fR=\fPbool
See \fBnorandommap\fR. If fio runs with the random block map enabled and it
fails to allocate the map, if this option is set it will continue without a
random block map. As coverage will not be as complete as with random maps, this
use.
.RE
.TP
-.BI iomem_align \fR=\fPint
+.BI iomem_align \fR=\fPint "\fR,\fP mem_align" \fR=\fPint
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 \fBiodepth\fR
the alignment of the following buffers are given by the \fBbs\fR used. In
\fBverify_backlog_batch\fR is larger than \fBverify_backlog\fR, some blocks
will be verified more than once.
.TP
-.B stonewall
+.B stonewall "\fR,\fP wait_for_previous"
Wait for preceding jobs in the job file to exit before starting this one.
\fBstonewall\fR implies \fBnew_group\fR.
.TP

.BI gid \fR=\fPint
Set group ID, see \fBuid\fR.
+.TP
+.BI clat_percentiles \fR=\fPbool
+Enable the reporting of percentiles of completion latencies.
+.TP
+.BI percentile_list \fR=\fPfloat_list
+Overwrite the default list of percentiles for completion
+latencies. Each number is a floating number in the range (0,100], and
+the maximum length of the list is 20. Use ':' to separate the
+numbers. For example, --percentile_list=99.5:99.9 will cause fio to
+report the values of completion latency below which 99.5% and 99.9% of
+the observed latencies fell, respectively.
.SH OUTPUT
While running, \fBfio\fR will display the status of the created jobs. For
