NAME

       dahdi_test — Test if the DAHDI timer provides timely response

SYNOPSIS

       dahdi_test [ -v ]

DESCRIPTION

       dahdi_test  dahdi_test  runs  a timing test in a loop and prints the result of each loop.  The test is as
       follows:

       It reads 8192 bytes from the DAHDI timer device (/dev/dahdi/pseudo).  This should take exactly 8000 ms  .
       It  uses  calls  to  gettimeofday(2)  before and after that read to check that indeed exactly 8000ms have
       passed.

       Values of 100% and 99.99% Are normally considered a definite pass.   Values  of  99.98%  and  99.97%  are
       probably OK as well.

OPTIONS

       -v
              Be more verbose: print one line per test.

       -c count
              Run for count times instead of running forever.

FILES

       /dev/dahdi/pseudo
       The device file used to access the DAHDI timer.
