The test modules are regular kernel modules that can be loaded with modprobe slab_test or so. The initialization function of the module will then run the test and fail so that the module is not loaded. The output of the test results will be written to the system log. This is a rough draft. I have used these in the past to benchmark page allocator, slab allocator and vmstat performance. -- 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/
