Running Timer Code

Machines setup with llk timing: b10,b11,c10,c11

Need to check out:

• llk-pacgen - cvs module with modified pacgen

tp timer must be compiled into the kernel or compiled/loaded as a module. Note that there is a significant chance that this compilation will crash the machine. May not want to compile the module on the machine you want to test with.

pacgen sample commands:

./server tcp <port number>
./client -t <protocol> -s <source IP> -m <source port> -d <dest IP> -p <dest port>

Each window is a specific ID for the packet. This ID is used as the payload for the packets. Useful for checking for packet fragmentation (educated guess via Alex). Windows are 0xffffffff, 0xffffffff (2 unsigned ints worth of 1's), an unsigned int for socket/thread id (We don't use it; that part of the code was removed), and an unsigned int holding the window number (we don't know what this is for).

After pacgen is ran with on a tp timer enabled machine, the timing results will be available in /proc/tp_timer. Note that after you read this proc entry, the information will be cleared.
