Forum

The forum is the place where you can find:

  • General information and support on the project.
  • Directions for people wanting to contribute to the project.
  • Most recent information regarding the Trace tool.
  • Tests design and source code.

Mailing List

This is the mailing list of our project. It is mainly used for anouncement but suitable for any questions as well. To subscribe to the list, just send an email to nptl_request@bullopensource.org with "subscribe" as a topic. An archive of the mailing list can be found here. This list has a very low traffic.

PTT

PTT (NPTL trace tool) is curently hosted by sourceforge. You could find documentations and sources of the project.

 

External links

GNU libc

Home page of the GNU Libc Library. This is the place where you can find information on how to download the glibc, which contains the NPTL. You will also find usefull links related to the libc development, such as mailing lists.

PTS

The Open POSIX TestSuite is the primary place where our tests are downloadable. The testsuite contains conformance, functionnal and stress tests in several areas. Our project aims to extend this testsuite to ensure that every routines from the NPTL work fine.

STP

The Scalable Test Platform is a place where you can find data on PTS execution, and even trig a run of the testsuite on a specific platform.

TLP

The Test Suites Results Parser & Browser project (a.k.a. tslogparser) is a system to manage your OPTS run results and quick access to useful information.

LTP

The Linux Test Project is a widely used testsuite for the Linux operating system. This testsuite contains the PTS but this part is not executed in the default execution scheme.

LTT

The Linux Trace Toolkit is trace tool for the linux kernel. The goals and the design of this tool are close to our trace tool, but we want to avoid a kernel support. Anyway, this tool can be used along with our tool to get a complete trace of program execution.

RTNPTL

This project aims to extend the NPTL features by adding some real-time routines, and some other usefull features such as the Robust Mutexes. It consists in a kernel patch, which will provide a new kernel object (fusyn) and a NPTL patch which will make use of this kernel object.
