This page also has the beginnings of STP (Scalable Test Platform)
results for a number of tests (aim9, LTP, unixbench, contest, bonnie++,
debench (quick), hackbench, iozone, dbt1 (1-tier), lmbench (short)) for
recent kernel releases.
These metrics are simply one way to measure how 2.5 is converging. Many
of the compilation errors are being addressed by various kernel
developers, so in some ways, these statics are restating the obvious.
Reasonable convergence of compile time warnings/errors was happening
until 2.5.54 was released. However, 2.5.54 took a step backwards. The
latest results show...
2.5.53 2.5.54
------------------------ ------------------------
bzImage (defconfig) 16 warnings/0 errors 68 warnings/0 errors
bzImage (allmodconfig) 31 warnings/9 errors 40 warnings/11 errors
modules (allmodconfig) 1843 warnings/118 errors 3223 warnings/208 errors
The script that generated this data is also at
www.osdl.org/archive/cherry/stability. Detailed information on warnings
and errors can be found by following the links in the table, but a
summary of the 2.5.54 run is shown here....
