Seems to me that we should just reset back to zero, and not worry about the io_size at all. This is what is screwing things up, and I can't think of why we would attempt to be more clever in wrapping around. The below should do the trick. David, once appveyor finishes, you should be able to download the build here and re-test: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/axboe/fio/build/job/p0misp4ehe96ti7d/artifacts diff --git a/io_u.c b/io_u.c index 4246edff0b2f..aac74bf6f7ad 100644 --- a/io_u.c +++ b/io_u.c @@ -363,14 +363,7 @@ static int get_next_seq_offset(struct thread_data *td, struct fio_file *f, if (f->last_pos[ddir] >= f->io_size + get_start_offset(td, f) && o->time_based) { - struct thread_options *o = &td->o; - uint64_t io_size = f->io_size + (f->io_size % o->min_bs[ddir]); - - if (io_size > f->last_pos[ddir]) - f->last_pos[ddir] = 0; - else - f->last_pos[ddir] = f->last_pos[ddir] - io_size; - + f->last_pos[ddir] = 0; loop_cache_invalidate(td, f); } On 11/01/2017 10:44 AM, Jens Axboe wrote: > I just tried to reproduce on Linux, and I can.
