-\fBcmdprio_percentage\fR is set, this defaults to the highest priority

Set the I/O priority value to use for I/Os that must be issued with a
-priority when \fBcmdprio_percentage\fR is set. If not specified when
-\fBcmdprio_percentage\fR is set, this defaults to 0. Linux limits us to
-a positive value between 0 and 7, with 0 being the highest. A single
-value applies to reads and writes. Comma-separated values may be specified
-for reads and writes. See man \fBionice\fR\|(1). Refer to an appropriate
-manpage for other operating systems since the meaning of priority may differ.

+.BI (io_uring,libaio)cmdprio_bssplit \fR=\fPstr[,str]
+To get a finer control over I/O priority, this option allows specifying
+the percentage of IOs that must have a priority set depending on the block
+size of the IO. This option is useful only when used together with the option
+\fBbssplit\fR, that is, multiple different block sizes are used for reads and
+writes. The format for this option is the same as the format of the
+\fBbssplit\fR option, with the exception that values for trim IOs are
+ignored. This option is mutually exclusive with the \fBcmdprio_percentage\fR
+option.

.BI (io_uring)fixedbufs
If fio is asked to do direct IO, then Linux will map pages for each IO call, and
Stall the job for the specified period of time after an I/O has completed before issuing the
next. May be used to simulate processing being done by an application.
When the unit is omitted, the value is interpreted in microseconds. See

.BI thinktime_spin \fR=\fPtime
Only valid if \fBthinktime\fR is set - pretend to spend CPU time doing
The default is `complete', which triggers \fBthinktime\fR when fio completes
\fBthinktime_blocks\fR blocks. If this is set to `issue', then the trigger happens
at the issue side.

+.BI thinktime_iotime \fR=\fPtime
+Only valid if \fBthinktime\fR is set - control \fBthinktime\fR interval by time.
+The \fBthinktime\fR stall is repeated after IOs are executed for
+\fBthinktime_iotime\fR. For example, `\-\-thinktime_iotime=9s \-\-thinktime=1s'
+repeat 10-second cycle with IOs for 9 seconds and stall for 1 second. When the
+unit is omitted, \fBthinktime_iotime\fR is interpreted as a number of seconds.
+If this option is used together with \fBthinktime_blocks\fR, the \fBthinktime\fR
+stall is repeated after \fBthinktime_iotime\fR or after \fBthinktime_blocks\fR
+IOs, whichever happens first.

.BI rate \fR=\fPint[,int][,int]
Cap the bandwidth used by this job. The number is in bytes/sec, the normal
entry as well as the other data values. Defaults to 0 meaning that
offsets are not present in logs. Also see \fBLOG FILE FORMATS\fR section.
.TP
+.BI log_prio \fR=\fPbool
+If this is set, the iolog options will include the I/O priority for the I/O
+entry as well as the other data values. Defaults to 0 meaning that
+I/O priorities are not present in logs. Also see \fBLOG FILE FORMATS\fR section.
+.TP
.BI log_compression \fR=\fPint
If this is set, fio will compress the I/O logs as it goes, to keep the
memory footprint lower. When a log reaches the specified size, that chunk is
from the start of the file for that particular I/O. The logging of the offset can be
toggled with \fBlog_offset\fR.

-`Command priority` is 0 for normal priority and 1 for high priority. This is controlled
-by the ioengine specific \fBcmdprio_percentage\fR.
+If \fBlog_prio\fR is not set, the entry's `Command priority` is 1 for an IO executed
+with the highest RT priority class (\fBprioclass\fR=1 or \fBcmdprio_class\fR=1) and 0
+otherwise. This is controlled by the \fBprioclass\fR option and the ioengine specific
+\fBcmdprio_percentage\fR \fBcmdprio_class\fR options. If \fBlog_prio\fR is set, the
+entry's `Command priority` is the priority set for the IO, as a 16-bits hexadecimal
+number with the lowest 13 bits indicating the priority value (\fBprio\fR and
+\fBcmdprio\fR options) and the highest 3 bits indicating the IO priority class
+(\fBprioclass\fR and \fBcmdprio_class\fR options).
