Description |
---|---|
tst=Cons1|Cons2|Cons3|Cons4| Cons5|Cons6| Cons7|Cons8| Cons9|Cons10| Cons11|Cons12| Cons12|Cons13| Cons14|Cons15| Cons16|Cons17 |
Range of choices available between cons1 through cons17 subtests. |
itm=number |
Sets the number of times the test is allowed to time out. Default is 1. Note that each timeout occurs after a greater amount of elapsed time than the previous one. That is, if the first timeout occurs after T units of time, the second occurs 2T after T, and the third occurs 3T after 2T. |
lck |
Locks Buffer in Memory. Default is not locked. Locking the buffer in memory will disable COMA (Cache Only Memory Architecture). |
a |
Enables atomic mode. Uses the atomic instruction swap |
b |
Enables byte mode. Uses byte instructions to load and store. |
c |
Generates a core file. Exits in case of unexpected signals. |
e |
Disables the external cache. |
h |
Prints usage message. |
loops=number |
Sets the number of loops for the iterations. Default is 5. |
memsize=memsize |
Selects the memory size, in Megabytes, for the shared buffer. Default is 128. |
wait=cpucount |
Forces CPU 1 to write first if the number of CPUs is less than cpucount. |
passes=passes |
Selects the number of passes. Increasing the number of passes increases system stress. Setting the number of passes to 0 will cause the test to run in an endless loop. Passes can only be set to 0 in command line mode, not from the GUI. Default is 1. |
r |
Enables Reverse mode. Traverses the shared memory buffer in reverse. |
t |
Enables Trigger. Sends an interrupt signal to all processors when one processor detects a failure. |
x |
Enables Prefetch. Sets prefetch for read and write. |
y |
Enables Offset. Specifies an offset of line size between successive writes. |
i |
Enables Immidiate Mode. Not suppored for subtests cons1, cons2, cons3, cons15, and cons 17. |
q |
Enables Random Mode. |
seed |
Sets a random number seed to the user specified value. |
