Subject: [LTP] [PATCH 0/3] add CMA test
Date: Mon, 23 Apr 2012 12:31:53 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4F952F99.4010407@redhat.com> (raw)

CMA (cross memory attach) feature introduced 2 new syscalls:
process_vm_readv
process_vm_writev

commit fcf634098c00dd9cd247447368495f0b79be12d1
Author: Christopher Yeoh <cyeoh@au1.ibm.com>

Cross Memory Attach

"The basic idea behind cross memory attach is to allow MPI programs doing
intra-node communication to do a single copy of the message rather than
a double copy of the message via shared memory." [1]

This patch series is introducing the initial structure under syscalls/cma
and first test to check various errno codes as described in proposed man
page [2].
