<HTML><HEAD><TITLE>Data Test Program (dt) December 9, 1995</TITLE></HEAD><BODY BGCOLOR="#D19275"><CENTER><H2><STRONG>What's New as of December 9, 1995</STRONG></H2></CENTER><H2>Changes For This Release</H2>The following changes have been made to <I>dt</I> Version 9.0:<UL><LI>Fixed a problem checking pad bytes when doing long reads ofshort records (this was discovered by someone testing tapes).<LI>For systems which support higher serial line speeds, you can nowselect baud rates of 57600, 76800, and 115200. Platinum (ptos)now supports 57600 and 115200 (thank-you Dennis Paradis).<LI>Added the ability to read/write blocks using logical block data(lbdata) option. While this new feature was added specificallyas a counterpart to SCSI Write Same (disks) lbdata option, thisoption can be used with any device and/or data stream.<LI>For disk devices, the "min=" and "incr=" values now default to 512,when variable length transfers are requested (previously defaultedto 1 which was great for tapes, but not so good for block devices).[ A future version of <I>dt</I> will obtain the device block size via the new DEVGETINFO ioctl() now available in Platinum (ptos). ]<LI>Removed "enable=ade" (Address Data Exception) test option.This was used to test kernel unaligned data exception fixups,but it's seldom (if ever) used, and it's time to cleanup code.<LI>Added "ttymin=" option for setting the VMIN value for serial linetesting. Also fixed problem where VMIN got set incorrectly if theblock size was greater than 255 (VMIN is a u_char on Digital Unix).</UL><H2>What is Logical Block Data (lbdata) Format?</H2>This feature allows reading/writing of a 4-byte (32-bit) logicalblock address at the beginning of each data block tested. At thepresent time, the block number is stored using SCSI byte ordering(big-endian), which matchs what the SCSI Write Same command does.<P>Several new <I>dt</I> options have been added for this feature:<PRE> lba=value Set starting block used w/lbdata option. lbs=value Set logical block size for lbdata option. [ ...as well as... ] enable=lbdata Logical block data. (Default: disabled)</PRE>If this feature is enabled without specifying other options, theblock size (lbs) defaults to 512, and the starting block address(lba) defaults to 0. Specifying "lba" or "lbs" implicitly turnson the "lbdata" feature.<BLOCKQUOTE>NOTE: The logical block is *always* inserted at the beginning ofeach data block, not every "lbs" bytes (WRT to variable length opts).Also, the block number overwrites what the previous pattern byteswould have been (again matching the SCSI Write Same method). Also,enabling this feature will cause a degradation in performance stats.</BLOCKQUOTE><P>If people would like an option to have the logical block stored inlittle-endian format, I'll consider adding an option *if* requested.<P>Of course, the data verification routines have been modified toverify the logical block # matches the expected, and reports anymis-matches.<P>The "lbdata" feature has seen limited testing, but I know many peoplehave requested this ability in the past (sorry 'jag', you won't see it...).<P>As usual, if you encounter any problems with <I>dt</I>, send mail directlyto me rmiller@zk3.dec.com (this is not a supported utility, so no QARs please!).<P><CENTER><B>Location:</B> <I>wasted:~rmiller/dt.d/{dt,dt-ptos}</I></CENTER><CENTER>or via</CENTER><CENTER><A
