The latest version of the test-suite contains 3000+ tests for the Linux OS and can be found at http://ltp.sourceforge.net/. Latest happenings in LTP can also be found at: http://ltp.sourceforge.net/wiki/, http://ltp.sourceforge.net/wikiArchives.php, and, IRC: irc.freenode.org #ltp. 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: * Integration of remap_file_pages [remap_file_page01 & remap_file_pages02] syscall test case to LTP, * OPEN_POSIX_TESTSUITE updation, * Enhancing LTP Infrastructure for Better/more stress generation options, * Fix for executing lot of Test Cases for running on NFS, * Changes in lots of MACROS to higher Kernel compatibilities, * Making lcov 1.6 compatible with gcov/gcc 4.1.0 Note(s) from the Maintainer: We had couple of discussions regarding the new formats to make the LTP output more meaningful. Hope we can see both the XML and HTML version of LTP output in coming months. We are also stressing on improving the LTP infrastructure itself, to make testing more meaningful and effective. We have started with integrating the various existing stress generation capability to LTP runall. We can expect more such improvements in those areas. LTP-KDUMP will also see more automation and support for community Distros like OpenSuse and Ubuntu in future. We would encourage the community to post results to ltp-results@lists.sf.net, patches, new tests, bugs or comments/questions to ltp-list@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 Attached (OCTOBER 2007): Happy testing, Regards-- Subrata, --=-cNJigG+Q3ilcvyMXowUf Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=Oct-2007_Changelog.txt Content-Type: text/plain; name=Oct-2007_Changelog.txt; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit 1) Log Message: lcov: workaround for gcc 4.1.0 .gcno file oddness by Peter Oberparleiter (oberpapr@users.sourceforge.net) scott.heavner@philips.com wrote: I'm trying to use lcov 1.6 with gcov/gcc 4.1.0.
