- Add a top level test configuration file for test states that are common to all BSPs. This saves adding a test configuration (tcfg) file for every BSP. - Add the test states 'user-input' and 'benchmark'. This lets 'rtems-test' stop the test rather than waiting for a timeout or letting a benchmark run without the user asking for it to run. - Implement rtems-test-check in Python to make it faster. The shell script had grown to a point it was noticably slowing the build down. - Fix the configure.ac and Makefile.am files for a number of the test directories. The files are difficiult to keep in sync with the number of tests and mistakes can happen such as tests being left out of the build. The test fsrofs01 is an example. Also a there was a mix of SUBDIRS and _SUBDIRS being used and only _SUBDIRS should be used. - Fix the test fsrofs01 so it compiles. Closes #2963.
== Rhealstone Benchmark For RTEMS This is an implementation of the Rhealstone benchmarks for RTEMS. The Rhealstone metric is a set of benchmarks that aim to provide an independently verifiable objective measure of real-time performance in different systems. The Rhealstone metric is composed of six independent benchmarks, each of which measure an activity that is critical in real time systems: * Task switch time * Task preemption time * Interrupt latency time * Semaphore shuffle time * Deadlock breaking time * Intertask message latency An implementation of the Rhealstone metric allows for RTEMS performance to be compared with other real-time systems. The original proposal outlining the Rhealstone benchmark can be found http://collaboration.cmc.ec.gc.ca/science/rpn/biblio/ddj/Website/articles/DDJ/1989/8902/8902a/8902a.htm[here].
