Hi Jens,

'strace -f' running on a freshly built fio 1.28

It runs somewhat slowly but I just get lots of reads & writes like these

[pid  6597] gettimeofday({1245679454, 899777}, NULL) = 0
[pid  6597] lseek(8, 419278848, SEEK_SET) = 419278848

[pid  6597] write(8, "+\265bB\305\243g+\214\313\313\377\20H\237\356\266
\326X\335<\37\317K\207\317,/\335J\206\267\33"..., 4096) = 4096
[pid  6597] gettimeofday({1245679454, 900244}, NULL) = 0
[pid  6597] lseek(8, 419282944, SEEK_SET) = 419282944

[pid  6597] gettimeofday({1245679454, 900985}, NULL) = 0
[pid  6597] write(8, "+\265bB\305\243g+\214\313\313\377\20H\237\356\266

[pid  6597] gettimeofday({1245679454, 901171}, NULL) = 0
[pid  6597] lseek(8, 419291136, SEEK_SET) = 419291136
[pid  6597] gettimeofday({1245679454, 901309}, NULL) = 0
[pid  6597] gettimeofday({1245679454, 901379}, NULL) = 0
[pid  6597] gettimeofday({1245679454, 901460}, NULL) = 0
[pid  6597] read(8, "+\265bB\305\243g+\214\313\313\377\20H\237\356\266
\326X\335<\37\317K\207\317,/\335J\206\267\33"..., 4096) = 4096


where pid 6597 is job f1

I'll rebuild my kernel from the latest git, and check that.

regards
Richard
