OUR NOTICE AND TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE

Our Preamble Notice

A.  This notice is required to be provided under our contract with the U.S.

Department of Energy (DOE).  This work was produced at the University of

California, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory under Contract No.

W-7405-ENG-48 with the DOE.

B.  Neither the United States Government nor the University of California nor

any of their employees, makes any warranty, express or implied, or assumes any

liability or responsibility for the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of

any information, apparatus, product, or process disclosed, or represents that

its use would not infringe privately-owned rights.

C.  Also, reference herein to any specific commercial products, process, or

services by trade name, trademark, manufacturer or otherwise does not

necessarily constitute or imply its endorsement, recommendation, or favoring

by the United States Government or the University of California.  The views and

opinions of authors expressed herein do not necessarily state or reflect those

of the United States Government or the University of California, and shall not

be used for advertising or product endorsement purposes.

The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification

follows.

GNU Terms and Conditions for Copying, Distribution, and Modification

0.  This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice

placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under the terms of

this General Public License.  The "Program," below, refers to any such program

or work, and a "work based on the Program" means either the Program or any

derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the

Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or

translated into another language.  (Hereinafter, translation is included

without limitation in the term "modification".)  Each licensee is addressed as

"you."

Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by

this License; they are outside its scope.  The act of running the Program is

not restricted, and the output from the Program is covered only if its contents

constitute a work based on the Program (independent of having been made by

running the Program).  Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.

1.  You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code as

you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and

appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and

disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License

and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the

Program a copy of this License along with the Program.

You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may

at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.

2.  You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it,

thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such

modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you

also meet all of these conditions:

    a)  You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating

    that you changed the files and the date of any change.

    b)  You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole

    or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof,

    to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms

    of this License.

    c)  If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run,

    you must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the

    most ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including an

    appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or

    else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute

    the program under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy

    of this License.  (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but does

    not normally print such an announcement, your work based on the Program is

    not required to print an announcement.)

These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole.  If identifiable

sections of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably

considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and

its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate

work.  But when you distribute the same section as part of a whole which is a

work based on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms

of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire

whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.

Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your

rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the

right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on

the Program.

In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the

Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or

distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this

License.

3.  You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under

Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and

2 above provided that you also do one of the following:

    a)  Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source

    code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above

    on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,

    b)  Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to 

    give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically 

    performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the 

    corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1

    and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,

    c)  Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to

    distribute corresponding source code.  (This alternative is allowed only

    for noncommercial distribution and only if you received the program in

    object code or executable form with such an offer, in accord with

    Subsection b above.)

The source code for a work means the preferred form the work for making

modifications to it.  For an executable work, complete source code means all

the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface

definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation

of the executable.  However, as a special exception, the source code

distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either

source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on)

of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component

itself accompanies the executable.

If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy

from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source

code from the same place counts as distribution of the source code, even though

third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.

4.  You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as

expressly provided under this License.  Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify,

sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will automatically terminate

your rights under this License.  However, parties who have received copies, or

rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so

long as such parties remain in full compliance.

5.  You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it.

However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Program

or its derivative works.  These actions are prohibited by law if you do not

accept this License.  Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Program (or

any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to

do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying

the Program or works based on it.

6.  Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program),

the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor to

copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms and conditions.

You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the

rights granted herein.  You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by

third parties to this License.

7.  If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent

infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions

are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that

contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the

conditions of this License.  If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy

simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other pertinent

obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the Program at all.

For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution

of the Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through

you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to

refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.

If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any

particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply and

the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.

It is not the purpose to this section to induce you to infringe any patents or

other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this

section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software

distribution system, which is implemented by public license practices.  Many

people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software

distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of that

system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to

distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that

choice.

This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a

consequence of the rest of this License.

8.  If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain

countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original

copyright holder who places the Program under this License may add an explicit

geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that

distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded.  In

such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body

of this License.

9.  The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the 

General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions will be similar in 

spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems 

or concerns.

Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the Program

specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any later

version," you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of

that version of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation.

If the Program does not specify a version number of this License, you may

choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.

10.  If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs

whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author to ask for 

permission.  For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, 

write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this.  

Our decision to grant permission will be guided by the two goals of preserving 

the free status of all derivatives of our free software and or promoting the 

sharing and reuse of software generally.

NO WARRANTY

11.  BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR

THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE

STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE

PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED,

INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND

FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND

PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE,

YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.

12.  IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL

ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE

PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY

GENERAL, SPECIAL INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR

INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA

BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A

FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER

OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

Usage:	mdtest [-b #] [-B] [-c] [-C] [-d testdir] [-D] [-e] [-E] [-f first] [-F]

               [-h] [-i iterations] [-I #] [-l last] [-L] [-n #] [-N #] [-p seconds] 

               [-r] [-R[#]] [-s #] [-S] [-t] [-T] [-u] [-v] [-V #] [-w #] [-y]

               [-z #]

    -b: branching factor of hierarchical directory structure

    -B: no barriers between phases (create/stat/remove)

    -c: collective creates: task 0 does all creates and deletes

    -C: only create files/dirs

    -d: the directory in which the tests will run

    -D: perform test on directories only (no files)

    -e: number of bytes to read from each file

    -E: only read files

    -f: first number of tasks on which the test will run

    -F: perform test on files only (no directories)

    -h: prints help message

    -i: number of iterations the test will run

    -I: number of items per tree node    

    -l: last number of tasks on which the test will run

    -L: files/dirs created only at leaf level

    -n: every task will create/stat/remove # files/dirs per tree

    -N: stride # between neighbor tasks for file/dir stat (local=0)

    -p: pre-iteration delay (in seconds)

    -r: only remove files/dirs

    -R: randomly stat files/dirs (optional seed can be provided)    

    -s: stride between the number of tasks for each test

    -S: shared file access (file only, no directories)

    -t: time unique working directory overhead

    -T: only stat files/dirs        

    -u: unique working directory for each task

    -v: verbosity (each instance of option increments by one)

    -V: verbosity value

    -w: number of bytes to write to each file

    -y: sync file after write completion

    -z: depth of hierarchical directory structure

NOTES:

 * -N allows a "read-your-neighbor" approach by setting stride to 

    tasks-per-node. Do not use it with -B, as it creates race conditions.

 * -d allows multiple paths for the form '-d fullpath1@fullpath2@fullpath3'

 * -B allows each task to time itself. The aggregate results reflect this 

    change.

 * -n and -I cannot be used together.  -I specifies the number of files/dirs 

   created per tree node, whereas the -n specifies the total number of 

   files/dirs created over an entire tree.  When using -n, integer division is 

   used to determine the number of files/dirs per tree node.  (E.g. if -n is 

   10 and there are 4 tree nodes (z=1 and b=3), there will be 2 files/dirs per 

   tree node.)

 * -R and -T can be used separately.  -R merely indicates that if files/dirs

   are going to be stat'ed, then they will be stat'ed randomly.

Illustration of terminology:

                     Hierarchical directory structure (tree)

                                   =======

                                  |       |  (tree node)

                                   =======

                                  /   |   \

                            ------    |    ------

                           /          |          \

                       =======     =======     =======

                      |       |   |       |   |       |    (leaf level)

                       =======     =======     =======

    In this example, the tree has a depth of one (z=1) and branching factor of 

    three (b=3).  The node at the top of the tree is the root node.  The level 

    of nodes furthest from the root is the leaf level.  All trees created by 

    mdtest are balanced.

    To see how mdtest operates, do a simple run like the following:

        mdtest -z 1 -b 3 -I 10 -C -i 3

    This command will create a tree like the one above, then each task will 

    create 10 files/dirs per tree node.  Three of these trees will be created 

    (one for each iteration).

Example usages:

mdtest -I 10 -z 5 -b 2

    A directory tree is created in the current working directory that has a 

    depth of 5 and a branching factor of 2.  Each task operates on 10 

    files/dirs in each tree node.

mdtest -I 10 -z 5 -b 2 -R

    This example is the same as the previous one except that the files/dirs are

    stat'ed randomly.

mdtest -I 10 -z 5 -b 2 -R4

    Again, this example is the same as the previous except a seed of 4 is 

    passed to the random number generator.

mdtest -I 10 -z 5 -b 2 -L

    A directory tree is created as described above, but in this example 

    files/dirs exist only at the leaf level of the tree.

mdtest -n 100 -i 3 -d /users/me/testing

    Each task creates 100 files/dirs in a root node (there are no branches

    out of the root node) within the path /users/me/testing.  This is done 

    three times.  Aggregate values are calculated over the iterations.

mdtest -n 100 -F -C

    Each task only creates 100 files in the current directory.

    Directories are not created.  The files are neither stat'ed nor

    removed.

mdtest -I 5 -z 3 -b 5 -u -d /users/me/testing

    Each task creates a directory tree in the /users/me/testing

    directory.  Each tree has a depth of 3 and a branching factor of

    5.  Five files/dirs are operated upon in each node of each tree.

mdtest -I 5 -z 3 -b 5 -u -d /users/me/testing@/some/other/location

    This run is the same as the previous except that each task creates

    its tree in a different directory.  Task 0 will create a tree in 

    /users/me/testing. Task 1 will create a tree in /some/other/location.

    After all of the directories are used, the remaining tasks round-

    robin over the directories supplied.  (I.e. Task 2 will create a 

    tree in /users/me/testing, etc.)
