Hi,
Is there a reason why there is a 32 bit size restriction on the
verify_pattern parameter.
I have the fio code changes to handle verify_pattern of size <= 512
bytes, Iam still testing it. But wanted to know if there was any
special reason for the restriction before I sent the patch out.
thanks

Go for it, it's not a design decision :-). So I'll happily take patches
to improve and extend it. Thanks!
