There is actually already a timestamp there (sec + usec), and there's the notion of a generation number as well (it includes what number write this was). The structure looks like this: struct vhdr_meta { uint64_t offset; unsigned char thread; unsigned short numberio; unsigned long time_sec; unsigned long time_usec; }; Though the 'generation' number might have to be either used differently that it is now, or made into a different type. The meta verify is also the only one that isn't already 32 vs 64-bit agnostic. -- Jens Axboe -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe fio" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
