Memory test suite v0.0.4
------------------------
This intends to be a set of programs to test the memory management
system. I am releasing this version with the idea of gather more
programs for the suite. If you have some program to test the system,
please send it to me (quintela@fi.udc.es).
Thanks to Tom Hull and Arjan van de Ven for fixing the C++ warnings.
If you found values/combinations of tests for what the system
crash/Oops/whatever please report it to me. Then I can include it in
the tests and the people who tune the MM system can test it next time.
This version has:
An improved README
new shm test
removing several compilations warnings
added Tests file
Now RAMSIZE is a parameter that you can change at runtime
test <size in megabytes> (this patch has been done by
Marcelo Tosatti <marcelo@conectiva.com.br> and then
extended by me)
I have been having requests for people for the Linux Test Project
<http://oss.sgi.com/projects/ltp/> about merging the two test suites,
comments about that are welcome.
Any comments/suggestions/code are welcome.
<help wanted>
If some C++, thread guru wants to change shm-stress to use something
more portable than <asm/bitops.h>, help is welcome.
</help wanted>
This tests can be made possible thanks to the collaboration of:
Conectiva <http://www.conectiva.com/>
LFCIA (my University group) <http://www.lfcia.org>
that kindly donated to me an SMP machine.
Thanks for your time,
