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, Juan Quintela quintela@fi.udc.es
