Also included are the locking comments you requested and some other cleanups. Please let me know what comments you have. Vincent Fu (4): fio: add function to check for serialize_overlap with offload submission fio: enable cross-thread overlap checking with processes fio: document locking for overlap checking in offload mode docs: serialize_overlap=1 with io_submit_mode=offload no longer requires threads HOWTO | 2 +- backend.c | 21 +++++++++++++-------- fio.1 | 2 +- fio.h | 5 +++++ io_u_queue.c | 19 +++++++++++++++---- io_u_queue.h | 4 ++-- ioengines.c | 9 ++++++++- lib/memalign.c | 16 ++++++++++++---- lib/memalign.h | 5 +++-- rate-submit.c | 8 ++++++++ t/dedupe.c | 12 ++++++------ 11 files changed, 74 insertions(+), 29 deletions(-) -- 2.17.1
