Fixes PR 35265, although I did not use the patch provided therein.
* Change the default pattern. Samba is trying to cheat by
special casing IOZONE.tmp, and the pattern of 0xA5.
* Make the default pattern random, and based on Iozone version.
This is to prevent the hack from Richard Sharpe (in Samba)
from special casing Iozone, and lying to the user.
* bug fix in pattern gen.
* Add -+Z old data set mode.
* Add -+X constant data for short circuit testing only.
* Multi-node changes for new options. (-+Z and -+X)
* Add -+K flag for Sony.
* Move -+K outside of Windows only.
* Simplify percentage calculation
* Add error checking for -f and -F in the wrong modes.
* Bug fix for pbuffer allocation on remote clients.
* Check for max_rec_size when using ranges. -r -r -r
* Fix for Debian user bug. -r 1m -n 1m -g 2m gave bogus error.
* Bug fix for -k used in conjunction with -t and content validation.

-+d mode.
Improve speed of -+d without losing uniqueness of bytes.

Make CPU utilization use doubles everywhere.
Add support for CPU utilization while in distributed mode.
Make all times relative so multi node can do CPU usage.
Remove unused variables.
Zero compute_val inside of loops.

Improve resolution of get_resolution().
and portability stuff:
Added -z option. This is to be used with the -a option. It
provides more complete testing for small record sizes
when the file sizes are very large.
Added -y and -q to set record size range
Added command line to output
Put auto cross over back to 16 Meg
Add labels to the latency/offset output files.
Prevent mixed modes. Auto and throughput.
Added support for the Plus extended options.
Added support for -+u option. Cpu utilization.
Added network testing mode. -+m (Experimental) Tested: Linux, HP-UX
Added -xflag support for distributed mode.
Handle interrupts when in distributed mode.
Disable CPU utilization in distributed mode.

Add protocol version checking for distributed messages.
Add -+d file I/O diagnostic mode.
Fix some compiler warnings and implement the -+x option for
setting the multiplier used for file and record size incrementing.
Reduce the message traffic due to master's distribution of STOP. Only
one STOP distribution is needed. More can lead to socket buffer overflows.
Add -+p percentage read option.
Improve the mixed mode distribution algorithm.
Introduce -+r for O_RSYNC.
Add speed check code.
Increase maximum threads/procs to 256
Add contribs and -+t to help splash screen.

I have patched the source however, to allow use of the pread/prwite
tests, via the -E extension mode. Also, the benchmark target has been fixed.
package uninstalled, with the exceptionof lmbench. Make non-batch
targets for all the benchmarks, and create a results target which
places all the results in /tmp for easier collection.
