numerical option parsing broken in engine options

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I was debugging some problems with parsing fio jobs, and found
options.c:fio_get_kb_base is broken for external engines... The
parameter
'data' is either 0, td, or td->eo.  If it's td->eo it's not really
going to work.

The cleaner fix is probably to unwind passing 'data' so far down the
stack, but it
touches a lot of functions, so I thought I'd send this out now.

unsigned int fio_get_kb_base(void *data)
{
        struct thread_options *o = data;
        unsigned int kb_base = 0;

        if (o)
                kb_base = o->kb_base;
        if (!kb_base)
                kb_base = 1024;

        return kb_base;
}


If I replace
   if(o)
by
     if (o && (data - (void *) threads) % sizeof(threads[0]) == 0)

then it behaves as I expect when engine options use the 'k', etc.
