Tom Chen :
Hi,
I am new to Sun's NIC driver test suite. I check the website
http://opensolaris.org/os/community/device_drivers/projects/nicdrvtest/
and find that there are two test suites. One is under "Quick Start" which is pretty easy to setup, another is under "How to build and use" which involves manually installing some testing packages.
I am wondering what's the differenc between them?
Tom
The core test content is the same, actually the auto_nicdrv in Quick
Start is a script wrapper for NICDRV package, used to help setup NICDRV
environment including installing the dependent packages, installing
NICDRV package and configuring some network environment. In general, the
auto_nicdrv helps to complete the work in the configuration phase of the
NICDRV package.
The README in "How to build and use" is used to introduce how to use
NICDRV package, as you said, some manual work may be done by auto_nicdrv
in Quick Start.
One thing should be noted is the latest version of auto_nicdrv will be
released a little later than NICDRV package.
Thanks,
Robin
