Visit our website ( http://ltp.sourceforge.net ) to download the latest version of the test suite, and for information on test results on pre-release, release candidate and stable releases of the kernel. There is also a list of test cases that are expected to fail, please find the list at http://ltp.sourceforge.net/expected-errors.php. Highlights ---------- - LTP's Kernel Code Coverage website for 2.5.X kernel is live http://ltp.sf.net/coverage/coverage-2.5.26/index.html - Kernel code coverage tools are available on CVS under module utils - Automated test frame work to extract, build and install various Linux tests are available on CVS under module utils - Database stress tool 'dbgrinder' is available on cvs under ltp/utils/database We encourage the community to post results, patches or new tests on our mailing list and use the CVS bug tracking facility to report problems that you might encounter with the test suite. More details are available at our web-site. Change Log ---------- * New Additions --------------- - Added new test-cases for link07,fcntl22,link06 ( Group Bull ) - Added Linux kernel scheduler latency tester ( Davide Libenzi ) - Database test tool 'dbgrinder' ( James Kenefick ) * Fixes ------- - Several fixes for 64-bit ( Gerhard Tonn ) - fstat05,llseek fixes for MIPS ( Carsten Langgaard ) - Fixed check in getgroups03 that was causing failures if 'nobody' isn't in any secondary groups ( Paul Larson ) - Fix sendfile02 to work with the new 2.5 kernels which no longer allow it to fall back on write ( Paul Larson ) - Changed the hard-coded ip address to 127.0.0.1 in recvfrom01-sctp-udp-ipv6 ( Robbie Williamson ) - Added instance and time command line options in runalltests.sh ( Jeff Martin ) - Fixed the algorithm description for fork07,fork12 Reduced the output of fork07 to a finite amount ( Nathan Straz ) - Added fork12 to runtest/crashme.
