FTL Testing

ICE3028: Embedded System Design, Fall 2019, Dongkun Shin ([email protected])


FTL Testing: FIO
• Check the device.
– lsblk

• Create a partition.
– fdisk /dev/sdh (your device in /dev)
– Run 'n' command and 'w' command

• Create a file system.


– mkfs –t ext4 /dev/sdh1 (your device partition in /dev)

• Mount the device.


– mount –t ext4 /dev/sdh1 /mnt

FTL Testing: FIO
• Install the FIO.
– sudo apt-get install fio
– Verify the installation with the fio command.

• Write a FIO script. [global]


ioengine=libaio
– vim test.fio directory=/mnt
rw=write
bs=32k
direct=1
size=1G
• Run the FIO.
[job]
– fio test.fio numjobs=1
