Dear All, The Linux Test Project test suite <http://www.linuxtestproject.org> has been released for the month of JULY 2007. The latest version of the test-suite contains 3000+ tests for the Linux OS and can be found at http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/ltp/ltp-full-20070731.tgz?download. Latest happenings in LTP can be found at http://ltp.sourceforge.net/wiki/ and http://ltp.sourceforge.net/wikiArchives.php. Our web site also contains other information such as: - A Linux test tools matrix - Technical papers - How To's on Linux testing - Code coverage analysis tool. Release Highlights: * Updation of OPEN_POSIX_TESTSUITE to version 1.5.2 , * KDUMP testcases getting more matured, * 'fsx-linux' testcase for "Distributed filesystem coherency" being made uniform across LTP, * Gcov-kernel patch for 2.6.22, and other updation for LCOV * Many more patches to fix Bugs/anomalies in various test cases Note(s) from the Maintainer: Work has been initiated to improve LTP log formats, fix false positives and add new test-cases to LTP. We are also in discussion to start *LTP-DASH-MM* tree within LTP, which would incorporate test-cases for newly developed/built Kernel features. The Idea is to merge the same test-cases into LTP once those features becomes part of the main kernel. Would request your suggestions on this too. We encourage the community to post results to ltp-results at lists.sf.net, and patches, new tests, bugs or comments/questions to ltp-list at lists.sf.net, http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=add&group_id=3382&atid=103382 (for New Bug(s)), http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=add&group_id=3382&atid=303382 (for New Patch(s)), http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=add&group_id=3382&atid=353382 (for New Feature Request(s)) Please also see the ChangeLog Below (JULY 2007): 1) Log Message: lcov: preparations for new release by "oberpapr at users.sourceforge.net" - updated CHANGES file - added compat-libtool + no-compat-libtool option - changed libtool default to on (due to popular request) - added checksum option - changed checksum default to off (to reduce cpu time + file size) - added geninfo_checksum option to lcovrc, deprecated geninfo_no_checksum - added geninfo_compat_libtool option to lcovrc - minor update of README file File(s) Affected: ltp/utils/analysis/lcov/CHANGES ltp/utils/analysis/lcov/README ltp/utils/analysis/lcov/lcovrc ltp/utils/analysis/lcov/bin/geninfo ltp/utils/analysis/lcov/bin/lcov 2) Log Message: update manpage by "oberpapr at users.sourceforge.net" File(s) Affected: ltp/utils/analysis/lcov/man/lcov.1 3) Log Message: "sachinp at in.ibm.com" has fixed a probe point definition from 'll_rw_lock' to 'll_rw_block' File(s) Affected: ltp/testcases/kdump/susetools/lkdtm_mod/lkdtm.c 4) Log Message: man page update by "oberpapr at users.sourceforge.net" File(s) Affected: ltp/utils/analysis/lcov/man/genhtml.1 ltp/utils/analysis/lcov/man/geninfo.1 ltp/utils/analysis/lcov/man/lcov.1 5) Log Message: lcov: another update in preparation for a new release by "oberpapr at users.sourceforge.net" File(s) Affected: ltp/utils/analysis/lcov/bin/lcov ltp/utils/analysis/lcov/man/lcovrc.5 ltp/utils/analysis/lcov/CHANGES ltp/utils/analysis/lcov/lcovrc 6) Log Message: fixed bug that would not delete .gcda files when using -z, by "oberpapr at users.sourceforge.net" File(s) Affected: ltp/utils/analysis/lcov/CHANGES ltp/utils/analysis/lcov/bin/lcov 7) Log Message: lcov: - add new option --initial to get zero coverage data from graph files by "oberpapr at users.sourceforge.net" File(s) Affected: ltp/utils/analysis/lcov/CHANGES ltp/utils/analysis/lcov/bin/geninfo ltp/utils/analysis/lcov/bin/lcov ltp/utils/analysis/lcov/man/geninfo.1 ltp/utils/analysis/lcov/man/lcov.1 8) Log Message: "carmelo.amoroso at st.com" fixed the anomaly when "SHLBA != getpagesize()", like in SH architecture File(s) Affected: ltp/testcases/kernel/mem/shmt/shmt09.c 9) Log Message: "hdeller at users.sf.net" fixed unitialized variable useage in "lseek09" testcase File(s) Affected: ltp/testcases/kernel/syscalls/lseek/lseek09.c 10) Log Message: "naveenspen at gmail.com" pointed out that syslog_cmd="/etc/init.d/syslog" should be used irrespective of any Distro File(s) Affected: ltp/testcases/kernel/syscalls/syslog/syslog01 ltp/testcases/kernel/syscalls/syslog/syslog02 ltp/testcases/kernel/syscalls/syslog/syslog03 ltp/testcases/kernel/syscalls/syslog/syslog04 ltp/testcases/kernel/syscalls/syslog/syslog05 ltp/testcases/kernel/syscalls/syslog/syslog06 ltp/testcases/kernel/syscalls/syslog/syslog07 ltp/testcases/kernel/syscalls/syslog/syslog08 ltp/testcases/kernel/syscalls/syslog/syslog09 ltp/testcases/kernel/syscalls/syslog/syslog10 11) Log Message: "rsalveti at linux.vnet.ibm.com" pointed out to have same "fsx-linux" testcase for "fs", "ltp-aiodio" and "nfs" File(s) Affected: ltp/testcases/kernel/io/ltp-aiodio/fsx-linux.c ltp/testcases/network/nfs/fsx-linux/fsx-linux.c 12) Log Message: Randy Dunlap writes: Fix printf format warnings File(s) Affected: ltp/testcases/network/stress/ns-tools/Makefile ltp/testcases/network/stress/ns-tools/ns-igmp_querier.c ltp/testcases/network/stress/ns-tools/ns-mcast_join.c ltp/testcases/network/stress/ns-tools/ns-mcast_receiver.c ltp/testcases/network/stress/ns-tools/ns-tcpserver.c 13) Log Message: getsockopt() takes a socklen_t, not an int, as its optlen File(s) Affected: ltp/testcases/network/stress/ns-tools/ns-tcpclient.c ltp/testcases/network/stress/ns-tools/ns-tcpserver.c ltp/testcases/network/stress/ns-tools/ns-udpserver.c 14) Log Message: cleanup file File(s) Affected: ltp/testcases/kernel/syscalls/gethostid/gethostid01.c 15) Log Message: back out uclinux changes to something that doesnt spit warnings as reported by Randy Dunlap File(s) Affected: ltp/testcases/kernel/syscalls/gethostid/gethostid01.c 16) Log Message: fixup gcc warnings by removing silly pieces of code File(s) Affected: ltp/testcases/kernel/mem/mtest06/mmap1.c ltp/testcases/kernel/mem/mtest06/mmap2.c ltp/testcases/kernel/mem/mtest06/mmap3.c ltp/testcases/kernel/mem/mtest06/shmat1.c 17) Log Message: Randy Dunlap writes: Convert mmap1 to use standard test results output format.
