Thanks for the added instructions. Although most members on this list 
probably know this by heart, I'm very happy that you take the time to 
include it for us who are not as knowing about SunOS>5.9

Thanks,

Hi,

I set up this directory with testing
resources:

http://dlc-int.openindiana.org/users/aurelien/kpti/

  
  Live Media, Minimal Text images, and
  repository as p5p archive are provided.
  

The repository is located at:

pkg.openindiana.org/kpti

  
  Let me know if you encounter any issue.
  

Kind regards

Hi,
over the weekend I tested KPTI from the repository on
  Toshiba Satellite L855 laptop (Ivy Bridge-based, has
  PCID). I run many tests from Phoronix Test Suite 7.8
  there and haven't seen any crash nor any other problem
  (apart from the fact that some tests are not in a good
  shape for OpenIndiana...). With regards to general use
  of the system, I haven't seen any noticeable slowdown.
  

Same experience here :)
  

I'd be interested in putting PTS to a better shape. Do
  you have any inital recipe that I could use for creating a
  component?

  

  

Unfortunately I don't... I used source tarball from the project's
website and manually installed required dependencies.

  

  
One "old" issue is that PTS runs 32-bit binaries by
  default for some tests since it expects /usr/bin to
  deliver 64-bit executables.

  

  

I see, that would explain why some tests from the test suite were
unable to find some binaries (e.g. mpich).

  

  

  
I also run the KPTI images thru our openQA tests
  and there's no problem, nor slowdown (I can say this
  from comparison with older runs) as well. Host for the
  tests was the Ivy Bridge-based laptop.
So far great experience. Thanks for putting those
  images and repos together Aurélien.
  

:)
  

Thanks to you for the openQA testing of the images, it
  is quite impressive :)

 

  
Michal

[oi-dev] [call for testing] KPTI images

2018-03-05 Thread John Levon 
Hi all, please see below for test images for the various
distributions. These images include the KPTI (and PCID) work done by
Joyent up to the current kpti-squash branch. They are non-DEBUG except
as noted.

As before, any and all testing is useful, especially with "weird"
things like LDT-using code, older machines, etc.

Thanks to Aurélien Larcher and Andy Fiddaman for building the OI and
OmniOS images below.

thanks
john

OpenIndiana:

http://dlc-int.openindiana.org/users/aurelien/kpti/

OmniOSce (bloody):

# pkg update pkg
# pkg apply-hot-fix --be-name=kpti
https://downloads.omniosce.org/pkg/bloody/kpti.p5p
# init 6

or for DEBUG bits:

# pkg apply-hot-fix --be-name=kpti
https://downloads.omniosce.org/pkg/bloody/kpti-DEBUG.p5p

SmartOS:
