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 http://www.bluestop.org/fio/ . Additionally the Windows client seems to be unable to read job files when connecting to the server: example.fio: [global] bs=256k direct=1 filename=tmp #fsync=1 ioengine=windowsaio iodepth=8 stonewall thread verify=crc32c-intel size=50M [sequentialwrite] do_verify=0 rw=write 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=127.0.0.1 .\example.fio writev is not implemented fio: failed reading job file .\example.fio The older 2.0.14 binary also has client issues on Windows: C:\Users>fio.exe --minimal example.fio 3;fio2.0.14;sequentialwrite;0;0;0;0;0;0;0;0;0.000000;0.000000;0;0;0.000000;0.000000;1.000000%=0;5.000000%=0;10.000000%=0;20.000000%=0;30.000000%=0;40.000000%=0;50.000000%=0;60.000000%=0;70.000000%=0;80.000000%=0;90.000000%=0;95.000000%=0;99.000000%=0;99.500000%=0;99.900000%=0;99.950000%=0;99.990000%=0;0%=0;0%=0;0%=0;0;0;0.000000;0.000000;0;0;0.000000%;0.000000;0.000000;51200;302958;1183;169;76;1140;128.305000;122.535943;259;6770;5736.430000;678.286887;1.000000%=1064;5.000000%=5600;10.000000%=5664;20.000000%=5664;30.000000%=5728;40.000000%=5728;50.000000%=5792;60.000000%=5856;70.000000%=5856;80.000000%=5920;90.000000%=6048;95.000000%=6112;99.000000%=6752;99.500000%=6752;99.900000%=6752;99.950000%=6752;99.990000%=6752;0%=0;0%=0;0%=0;361;6985;5864.735000;688.096080;0;0;0.000000%;0.000000;0.000000;0.000000%;0.000000%;0;0;0;0.5%;1.0%;2.0%;96.5%;0.0%;0.0%;0.0%;0.00%;0.00%;0.00%;0.00%;0.00%;0.00%;0.00%;0.50%;0.00%;0.00%;0.50%;1.50%;97.50%;0.00%;0.00%;0.00%;0.00%;0.00%;0.00%;0.00%;0.00%;0.00% C:\Users>fio.exe --client=127.0.0.1 example.fio fio: failed reading job file example.fio Does anyone have any ideas? -- Sitsofe -- 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
