This file is here for people to list their contributions to the netperf benchmark. When you enhance or fix something, put your name and a description of the what/where/whey/why/how here. If you like, feel free to include an email address. I would like to apologize in advance to anyone I've forgotten to include. Rick Jones Responsible for initial packaging and release of netperf and "editorial" continuity for subsequent releases. Karen Choy Code to allow netserver to run as a standalone daemon. Dave Shield Wrote the first revision of the netperf and netserver manpages. Sarr Blumson Fixes for AIX 3.1 and 3.2. Also fixes for Solaris 2.1 without realizing it ;-) Jeff Smits Fixes for TCP_RR and UDP_RR on sytems with an htonl that is not a no-op. Warren Burnett Example code for DLPI tests. Several Folks Code to tell SunOS 4 to *not* restart system calls on receipt of a signal. Fore Systems Inc. Manpages for the FORE API and question answering David Channin Access to systems running the Fore ATM API Jonathan Stone Include file fixes for Ultrix Bruce Barnett Bunches of warnings fixes and lint picks for Solaris 2.3 Herman Dierks et al Code to calculate confidence intervals for tests Hal Murray Helpful suggestions for the scripts to make them more compatible with the netperf database (http://www.cup.hp.com/netperf/NetperfPage.html). His prompting finally got me off my whatever to put the confidence interval stuff from the guys at IBM into netperf Peter Skopp pds@cs.columbia.edu Fixes to make netperf more secure. Tom Wilson A fix to send_udp_rr to correct bogus throughput values. Thorsten Lockert A bunch of clean-up for the *BSD OSes Serge Pachkovsky Code for low-priority soaker process for AIX and SGI The fine folks at Adaptec The initial port of netperf (1.9PL4) to Windows NT 3.51. Robin Callender The PPC binaries for the 1.9PL4 port of netperf to NT and for assorted code clean-ups and help with CPU utilization measurements. "Todd J. Derr" For offering to take-on support of the Fore ATM API files with 2.1 and for his help in making the tar files and such more user-friendly Michael Shuldman Improvements to the makefile and additional checks for OpenBSD Kris Corwin discovery of a debug statement outside of if (debug) that may have been the cause of all the nasty connection refused errors in random UDP_RR tests... Charles Harris Initial prototype of the TCP_SENDFILE test support Philip Pishioneri of Cornel Conversion of the netperf.ps manul to PDF format. The Hewlett-Packard OpenVMS folks Assistance with the port to OpenVMS Munechika SUMIKAWA @ KAME Project / FreeBSD.org IPv6 fixes Jan Iven of CERN initial mods for sendfile() under Linux Fabrice Bacchella for pointing-out that Solaris 9 has a copy of Linux sendfile() Andrew Gallatin for assistance with the FreeBSD sysctl() stuff Mark Cooper pointing-out the need for -lresolv when compiling -DDO_DNS on RedHat 7.1 Carl Mascott finding some cut-and-paste erors in create_data_socket error logging Fabrice Bacchella Fixes for -DHISTOGRAM and -DUNIX on Mac OS X, updates to usage strings Spencer Frink Fixes and Cleanup for WIN32 Nicholas Thomas Fixes for DLPI on SVR4 Streams under Linux Dave Craig Fixes for getaddrinfo error returns David Mosberger of HP Workaround for the Linux getsockopt() bug that returns more than that for which one asked. Stephen Burger of HP Code to implement the netserver CPU binding. Vladislav "Vlad" Yasevich of HP Initial SCTP tests. Enhancements to the configure.ac sources to show the way to make many of the LIBS="foo" before ./configure unnecessary. Padmanabhan "Paddu" S N of HP Patches for /proc/stat CPU util and recv_tcp_rr. Cary Coutant and other hp-mac-users of HP Access to Mac OS X systems for porting netperf 2.4.0 Chris Bertin of HP Access to AIX for initial porting of netperf 2.4.0 James Carlson Assistance finding the right magic to compile SCTP on Solaris 10. Gavin Pointers on Solaris 10 Microstate accounting. Brent Draney Getting netcpu_perfstat.c in running order on AIX and other misc fixups in places such as BSD. Samuel Ying Change struct sockaddr to struct sockaddr storage in netserver.c Rodolpho Boer Fix for default message size in UDP_STREAM when defualt SO_SNDBUF size is > max UDP datagram size. Michael Dorff Getting netperf/netserver to compile under Windows with MS Visual Studio 2003
