I've read here that ESP can host a netio server for testing wifi throughput. I'd very much like to try it out, but the force is not strong in this one... I can't figure out how to get it to work in my arduino sketch

I'm not sure if this is an arduino question, or compiler question, or a general C/C++ one, so I'm posting it here in hopes someone can at least point me in the right direction.

I'm using Arduino IDE 1.6.3 with ESP support, which I to this point thought linked the entire SDK (including liblwip.a where I found the only reference to netio), but i cannot use for example netio_init() in my code without getting an error at compilation/validation. Is there a magic button that I need to click to get it to work?

Go get the latest Arduino IDE and install it because the ESP library is loaded a different way and has been updated twice . Last 29/5/15 and it updates automatically.
There is a lot changed that didn't work before
Don't know if that will fix your problem but there will be a lot of stuff that works right for other things
