Hi,
Just in time for Christmas, I've spun a new release. You might have
noticed that it has a different numbering than expected. The previous
release was 2.2.13, so this should have been 2.2.14. But I've decided to
switch to a simpler versioning scheme, so we'll just bump the Y of the
X.Y numbering going forward.
As usual, report any weirdness in testing this newer release.
Happy Holidays!
Shortlog of the release can be found here:
http://brick.kernel.dk/snaps/fio-2.3.shortlog.txt
Notable new features is a rewrite of the client/server message handling,
so it should be more stable now. It should also be a bit more fault
tolerant, it can recover from certain lost messages. It also supports
transmitting of the logs now, so you don't have to grab those from the
server side. If you use fio in client/server mode, testing would be great.
There's a rewrite of the hdfs IO engine.
And there's support for a new job primitive, 'wait_for'. This is a bit
more flexible than 'stonewall' in that you can wait for specific jobs,
instead of just inserting a barrier in your job file.
