Hello,

I am trying to check how option --clocksource works.


bash# fio --name job1 --size 10m --clocksource 2
        valid values: gettimeofday Use gettimeofday(2) for timing
                    : clock_gettime Use clock_gettime(2) for timing
                    : cpu        Use CPU private clock

fio: failed parsing clocksource=2

bash# fio --name job1 --size 10m --clocksource gettimeofday(2)
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `('

Below command works fine.
bash# fio --name job1 --size 10m --clocksource gettimeofday

It runs without error but quiet not sure how to see the effect of this
option. also tried other options - clock_gettime, cpu gettimeofday and
dont see any difference.

Also is there any error in documentation passing gettimeofday(2)
throws parse error.

Thanks and Regards,
Mohan
