Hi,

The problem with waitpid when trying to connect to an fio in server mode
as mentioned in http://www.spinics.net/lists/fio/msg02319.html from
August still seems to be here with the prebuilt 2.1.1 Windows binaries
on=EF=BF=BDhttp://www.bluestop.org/fio/ . Additionally the Windows client s=
eems
to be unable to read job files when connecting to the server:

example.fio:
[global]
bs=3D256k
direct=3D1
filename=3Dtmp
#fsync=3D1
ioengine=3Dwindowsaio
iodepth=3D8
stonewall
thread
verify=3Dcrc32c-intel
size=3D50M
[sequentialwrite]
do_verify=3D0
rw=3Dwrite

PS C:\Users> & 'C:\Program Files\fio\fio.exe' --server
fio: server listening on 0.0.0.0,8765
fork is not implemented
waitpid is not implemented
fio: waitpid: Function not implemented
waitpid is not implemented

PS C:\Users> & 'C:\Program Files\fio\fio.exe' --client=3D127.0.0.1 .\exampl=
e.fio
writev is not implemented
fio: failed reading job file .\example.fio

The older 2.0.14 binary also has client issues on Windows:

Does anyone have any ideas?
