Hi. I'm now trying to run multi-threaded log replay, and noticed all threads are accessing same sector on a disk. Of course, this is an expected behavior of "replay". But since I also wanted to have each thread accessing different parts of the disk to increase a load, but still following the access pattern of the original, I added "replay_rebase" option to shift offset of IO request for each thread. Althrough there's "1/2" in the subject, this patch is complete by itself. Next one (2/2) is related, but handles different issue.
