Dear All,

The Linux Test Project test suite has been released for the month of
FEBRUARY 2008. The latest version of the test-suite contains 3000+ tests
for the Linux OS and can be found at
http://ltp.sourceforge.net/.
Latest happenings in LTP can also be found at:
http://ltp.sourceforge.net/wiki/,
http://ltp.sourceforge.net/wikiArchives.php, and,
IRC: irc.freenode.org #ltp.

Our web site also contains other information such as:
- A Linux test tools matrix
- Technical papers
- How To's on Linux testing
- Code coverage analysis tool.

Release Highlights:

* Addition of CPU CONTROLLER Test Cases,
* Addition of few MSGCTL Test Cases,
* Several Rounds of RT Linux Test Cases Cleanup,
* SE-LINUX Test Cases Cleanups,
* Initiation to Make LTP Test Cases Concurrency-Safe,
* Updates for LCOV, PID & SYSVIPC NAMESPACES, HUGETLB, NUMA, SCHEDULER,
FILECAPS, LTP LIBRARY, DISKTESTS, PCLLIB, FALLOCATE, BALLISTA, TIMERS,
DOIO, MEM, and scores of other Test cases.

Note(s) from the Maintainer:

You all might have noted the exponential increase in mail traffic.Thanks
for all the right noise.We saw an interesting development, in terms of
making LTP concurrency-safe. I feel that is a major development. We
repeated our enthusiasm for RT Test Cases, last time i remember we did
for LTP-KDUMP. We also saw CPU Controller Test Cases Added and will see
more such test cases getting added regularly in future. The Time has
come for us to think of contributing more test cases and other effective
ways of increasing Kernel Code Coverage.

We would encourage the community to post results to
ltp-results@...ts.sf.net,
patches, new tests, bugs or comments/questions to ltp-list@...ts.sf.net,
