================================================
``sd_bench`` SD card or mount point bench test
================================================
Performs bench mark testing on SD card or other mount points using the file system layer.
A single test run.
- Sequentially writes blocks of bytes to a test file on the device until the test duration elapses.
- Optionally, the number of bytes written are read back and verified.
The following runtime options are available::
sdbench: [-b] [-r] [-d] [-k] [-s] [-a] [-v]
-b Block size per write (1-65536), default 512
-r Number of runs (1-10000), default 5
-d Max duration of a test (ms) (1-60000), default 2000
-k Keep test file when finished, default false
-s Call fsync after each block, false calls fsync
only at the end of each run, default false
-a Test performance on aligned data, default false
-v Verify data and block number, default true
An example of a completed test::
nsh> sdbench
Using block size = 512 bytes, sync = false

Avg : 652.6 KB/s, 3.999 MB and verified
The following Kconfig options can be used to configure the application at compile time.
- ``CONFIG_TESTING_SD_BENCH`` - Enable the SD benchmark testing utility.
- ``CONFIG_TESTING_SD_BENCH_PROGNAME`` - The name of the program registered with nsh.
- ``CONFIG_TESTING_SD_BENCH_PRIORITY`` - The priority of the task.
- ``CONFIG_TESTING_SD_BENCH_STACKSIZE`` - The stacksize of the task.
- ``CONFIG_TESTING_SD_BENCH_DEVICE`` - The mountpoint to run sdbench on.
