I pulled the latest linuxppc_2_4_devel, ported gemini to it, and ran
an overnight test with:
NFS mounted root filesystem
while (true) do make clean; make -j8 zImage; done
crashme +2000 666 100 8:00:00 2
Flood ping in and out
On a dual 7410 Gemini with 1 GB RAM. Used all but 70MB of memory. No
hangs.
The weird thing is that crashme was supposed to run for 8 hours but
it's been running for over 14 hours now. Any ideas?
Also, I don't think this was a particularly good test of highmem since
I don't think many bounce buffers were used, or that the kernel had
much reason to map/unmap many highmem pages. Unfortunately, my SCSI
controller isn't working quite right and I can't test with a hard disk
as a result. Any ideas for stressing the system harder?
