Reproducing CrystalDiskMark tests with fio - fixes for https://unix.stackexchange.com/revisions/480191/9

# This script is based on https://unix.stackexchange.com/revisions/480191/9 .
# The following changes proved to be necessary to make it work on CentOS 7:
#  * removed disk info (model, size) - not very useful, might not work in many cases.
#  * using "bw" instead of "bw_bytes" to support fio version 3.1 (those availible through yum @base)
#  * escaping exclamation mark in sed command
#  * the ".fiomark.txt" is not auto-removed 

LOOPS=5 #How many times to run each test
SIZE=1024 #Size of each test, multiples of 32 recommended for Q32 tests to give the most accurate results.
WRITEZERO=0 #Set whether to write zeroes or randoms to testfile (random is the default for both fio and crystaldiskmark); dd benchmarks typically only write zeroes which is why there can be a speed difference.

QSIZE=$(($SIZE / 32)) #Size of Q32Seq tests

I've tried to reproduce CrystalDiskMark's interface and its behavior with Qt and fio. If you're interested, please take a look at my repo.

In my gist, I've updated this script to use jq tool for json parsing:

QUERY='def read_bw(name): [.jobs[] | select(.jobname==name+"read").read.bw] | add / 1024 | floor;
       def read_iops(name): [.jobs[] | select(.jobname==name+"read").read.iops] | add | floor;
       def write_bw(name): [.jobs[] | select(.jobname==name+"write").write.bw] | add / 1024 | floor;
       def write_iops(name): [.jobs[] | select(.jobname==name+"write").write.iops] | add | floor;
       def job_summary(name): read_bw(name), read_iops(name), write_bw(name), write_iops(name);
       job_summary("Seq"), job_summary("512k"), job_summary("SeqQ32T1"),
       job_summary("4k"), job_summary("4kQ32T1"), job_summary("4kQ8T8")'
read -d '\n' -ra V <<< "$(jq "$QUERY" "$TARGET/.fiomark.txt")"

I think this makes it much more maintainable and should solve problems like:
553046/1024: syntax error in expression (error token is "553046/1024")

@BobbyWibowo
It is failing because fio is returning two rows that match the bw pattern (bw and bw_bytes) for the --rw=read command. We need to exclude those results, using something like grep -v '_'.

@qqgg231
Your issue must be being caused by a newer version of fio than this script originally worked with, as I'm experiencing the same issue. I had to break the executions of fio into multiple commands.

Here is an updated version of this script that accounts for both of my above statements (tested in CentOS 7 minimal with vim, fio and df installed): https://gist.github.com/BAGELreflex/c04e7a25d64e989cbd9376a9134b8f6d

just using "grep -w bw" fixes the problem.

I got these errors on almost everytime try to assign READ values:
