heh, we've been playing game "who first mention it in public will implement it" ... you won! ;-) AFAIK we have: - 'perf test' for perf specific functionality - 'make -f tests/make' for building - build framework tests I 'try' to run those before sending anything out, but we dont have automated thing that would run it any time Arnaldo push new perf/core. The RedHat QE has some more perf tool tests. There was some movement to make those public, but not sure how it ended up.. ccing Michael Petlan for news on this ;-) jirka -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
