| Marcin, |
| |
| Re-distribution is permitted as long as the copyright is |
| maintained and the source code is not changed. I do not |
| see a problem with your mods to enable fileop for Linux-arm, |
| as these mods have been returned to the Iozone folks, |
| and they have been accepted for inclusion in the next |
| release :-) |
| |
| Thank you for your contribution, |
| Don Capps |
