The latest version of the testsuite contains 2000+ tests for the Linux OS. Our web site also contains other information such as: test results, a Linux test tools matrix, an area for keeping up with fixes for known blocking problems in the 2.5/2.6 kernel releases, technical papers and HowTos on Linux testing, and a code coverage analysis tool. Highlights: * Updated the LTP stress script to record 'iostat' statistics if needed. * Updated the SCTP tests to support the current SCTP 2.6 kernel code. * Added new NFS test, nfs04, to help test data integrity during copies across mounts. * Applied more bug fixes, patches, and code cleanups. 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.

( Marty Ridgeway ) - Fixed bugs in 'tar' shell tests. ( Glen Foster ) - Applied patch to 'doio' for machines that ( Jun Sun ) have virtually indexed cache and cache aliasing problems - Updated mem01 and mtest01 to execute on s390 ( Robbie Williamson ) better. - Added missing parenthesis to mmstress. ( Manoj Iyer ) - Added code to chown03 & fchown04 to set the ( Robbie Williamson ) environment variable, "change_owner", if it is not already set. - Set the clone stack size to 16384 for all ( Robbie Williamson ) clone() tests. - Applied IA64 specific patch to clone04. ( Jacky Malcles ) - Removed test8 from stat06 b/c it was not ( Robbie Williamson ) valid under the SUSv3. - Added some extra documentation to swapon02 ( Robbie Williamson ) on how to handle glibc 2.2.5. - Resolved bug #834027 with sync02. ( Robbie Williamson ) - Added option to log 'iostat' data during ( Robbie Williamson ) testing using "ltpstress.sh". - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
