  7. <h3>Name</h3>
  8. ctest - cyclic stride-oriented VM test
  9. <h3>Synopsis</h3>
  10. /testbin/ctest [<em>stride</em>]
  11. <h3>Description</h3>
  12. ctest creates a 1-megabyte array of pointers and sets it up as a
  13. circular linked list, then traverses the linked list. The linked
  14. list is set up so each entry points to the one <em>stride</em> entries
  15. away.
  16. <p>
  17. The <em>stride</em> argument should be odd, so all elements in the
  18. list are accessed.
  19. <p>
  20. The default stride is 477.
  21. <h3>Requirements</h3>
  22. ctest uses the following system calls:
  23. <ul>
  24. <li> <A HREF=../syscall/write.html>write</A>
  25. <li> <A HREF=../syscall/_exit.html>_exit</A>
  26. </ul>
  27. ctest should function properly once the VM assignment is complete.
