I/O
---

These tests, as usual, cause the most noticeable delays in keyboard response.  Keystrokes
are not lost, but I can type several things in vim and it takes a few seconds for them
to eventually blast on the display.  At one point I looked at "top" during one of these
pauses and saw kupdated and vim with D STAT.

growfiles -b -e 1 -i 0 -L 120 -u -g 4090 -T 100 -t 408990 -l -C 10 -c 1000 -S 10 -f Lgf02_

growfiles -b -e 1 -i 0 -L 120 -w -u -r 10-5000 -I r -T 10 -l -S 2 -f Lgf04_


This shows that all of the growfiles tests succeeded:

Memory
------
Near the end of ltp, this test runs twice:

Filling up 80%  of ram which is 1177360793d bytes
PASS ... 1177550848 bytes allocated.
cmdline="mtest01 -p80"

Both tests succeed at memory allocation.  Interestingly, the swpd vmstat column 
stays large after the tests completes:

Log notes
---------
/var/log/messages file shows:

Oct  5 23:16:29 rushmore modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module personality-1

Repeats 12 times for personalities 1-11 and 221
Note: 12 of 13 personality tests now PASS

Oct  5 23:16:48 rushmore modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module net-pf-0

I thought the net-pf-0 module might be enabled by CONFIG_RTNETLINK, but
perhaps it is something else:

root@rushmore:/usr/src/linux# grep NETLINK .config
CONFIG_NETLINK=y
CONFIG_RTNETLINK=y
CONFIG_NETLINK_DEV=y
root@rushmore:/usr/src/linux# ls -l /dev/tap0
