See ChangeLog Below

LTP-20060717
- The tarball default-tests.tar.gz is a replacement for
  testcases/pounder21/default-tests.tar.gz.  This new pounder config
enables the magic sysrq key when pounder starts. 
- A patch submitted by Derek Wong to reduce the memory requirements of
  pounder's ramsnake test.

- A patch submitted by Will Newton that allows for compatibility changes
  gcc 2.95.2 in th following files:

    lib.c, lib64.c, test.c, test64.c, test_func.c, test_func64.c, tools.c
- Fixed ColdFire Makefile mistake in the syscall and syscalls/mmap directory 

- Added a note for uClinux users in the top level Makefile

- A fix for failures in fcntl27 and fcntl28 for bugs 21614 and 23235.

- A fix submitted for make_tree.c by Jacky Malcles that fixes this
  testcase by setting envp
- A fix submitted to Jacky Malcles that fixes read_checkzero.c. The lseek 
  function allows the file offset to be set beyond the end of the existing
  end-of-file of the file.  If data is later written at this point,
  subsequent reads of the data is in the gap returns bytes of zeros until
  data is actually written into the gap.
- In the testcase semget05.c the value of MAXIDS was changed for the specific 
  machine by reading the system limit for SEMMNI - The maximum number of
  semaphore sets. This is a fix for bug 24745

- A fix submitted by Amit K. Amora that initializes the alarm received
  code and allows the test to pass more than just once on 2.6.17-rc6
  alarm05.c,

- A fix was submitted by Andy Echols for pan.c to fix an infinite
  loop problem that occurs  in pan if runltp tries to run a test
  that isn't present.

- A fix was submitted to cast TEST_RETURN to gid_t to avoid implicit casts
  which tend to cause problems with the testcase  setregid03.c,

- A patch submitted by Jacky Malcles that fixes the problem where
  i0_getevents() return value is not checked and may return 0 if
  no events are available and may generate a SIGSEGV in the testcase
  aiodio_append.c,

- Backed out the _USC_LIB change for several Makefiles because it was
  breaking on the PowerPc platform on Fedora Core

- Added code to ignore looking for PID_MAX on powerpc, s390, and i386 to
  fix build problems on newer kernel versions on the following files:

 sysctl05.c, setpriority04.c sysfs01.c, sysfs02.c, sysfs03.c, sysfs04.c,
 sysfs06. getdents01.c, sysctl03.c getsid02.c, sysctl01.c,wait402.c

- TCP.c was changed to delete broken whitespace and also the call for
  accept(2) takes a socklen_t, not an int

- Changes were added to the following files to use memset() instead of
  bzero():

  tlibio.c, write_log.c, doio.c, iogen.c, fsstress.c, fsx-linux.c,
  pthcli.c, pthserv.c, pth_str01.c, pth_str03.c, recvmsg01.c, sendmsg01.c,
  crash01.c, crash02.c, pingpong6.c, test_getname.c, fancy_timed_loop.c,
infinite_loop.c, run.c, timed_loop.c, snake.c, rpc1.c, pipeio.c, mc_recv.c 

- Changes were added to the following files to use memcpy() instead of
   bcopy():
serverCommunication.cpp, member.c, rpc1.c,pipeio.c,mc_recv.c 

- A change submitted by Liang Shuang that fixes su01_su for the arm
 architecture
- A series of patches created by Mitsuru Chinen that created some addtional 
 network stress tests.
