Hello, Junchang,

Glad it worked out for you!

Note that the DIY toolset (http://diy.inria.fr/) has things that
automatically exercise litmus tests on real hardware.  See the
CodeSamples/formal directory in the perfbook archive, and especially
its herd and litmus subdirectories, for some example uses.
(And kudos to Akira for setting this up!)

						Thanx, Paul
