==========
BUILD:
==========

The default build includes both debug(checked) & non-debug (free) version of
dat2d.dll and dapl2d.dll uDAPL provider, free versions are dat2.dll & dapl2.dll.
Included in the build are test suites dtest (simple DAT example), dtestx
(DAT IB extensions test) and the main DAT/uDAPL tester dapl2test (see dt-svr &
dt-cli, see manual.htm for details).
Additionally, DAT v1.1 and/or DAT v2.0 build environments can be installed; see
manual.htm for details.

Building a free/non-debug version:
----------------------------------
Requires Windows Server 2003 DDK & Platform SDK.
From a DDK command window (free build) for a specific architecture
(x86, x64, ia64);

cd gen1\trunk\ulp\dapl2
build -wg
Binaries are located in gen1\bin\{kernel|user}\os-arch-folder\...

Building debug version:
-----------------------
Same as above except the DDK command window is for a Checked build


Installing:
-----------

dat2.dll & dapl.dll --> %SystemRoot%

===================
CONFIGURATION:
===================

sample C:\dat\dat.conf 

#
# DAT 1.2 configuration file,
#
# Each entry should have the following fields:
#
# <ia_name> <api_version> <threadsafety> <default> <lib_path> \
#           <provider_version> <ia_params> <platform_params>
#
# For openib-cma provider you can specify <ia_params> as either:
# 	network address, network hostname, or netdev name and 0 for port
#
#

4.0 SAMPLE uDAPL APPLICATION:
=============================

There are 2 sample programs provided with this package.

(dapl2/test/dtest/)
(dapl2/test/dtestx/)

NAME
      dtest - simple uDAPL send/receive and RDMA test

SYNOPSIS
      dtest [-P provider] [-b buf size] [-B burst count][-v] [-c] [-p] [-d] [-s]

      dtest [-P provider] [-b buf size] [-B burst count][-v] [-c] [-p] [-d] [-h HOSTNAME]

DESCRIPTION
      dtest  is a simple test used to exercise and verify the uDAPL interfaces.
      At least two instantiations of the test must be run. One acts as the
      server and the other the client. The server side of the test listens for
      connection requests, until timing out or killed. Upon receipt of a cd
      connection request, the connection is established, the server and client
      sides exchange information necessary to perform RDMA writes and reads.

OPTIONS
       -P=PROVIDER
          use PROVIDER to specify uDAPL interface using C:\DAT\dat.conf
          (default ibnic0v2)

       -b=BUFFER_SIZE
          use buffer size BUFFER_SIZE for RDMA(default 64)

       -B=BURST_COUNT
          use busrt count BURST_COUNT for interations (default 10)

       -v, verbose output(default off)

       -c, use consumer notification events (default off)

       -p, use polling (default wait for event)

       -d, delay in seconds before close (default off)

       -s, run as server (default - run as server)

       -h=HOSTNAME
          use HOSTNAME to specify server hostname or IP address (default - none)

EXAMPLES
       dtest -v -s
           Starts a server process with debug verbosity using provider ibnic0v2

       dtest -h server1-ib0

           Starts a client process, using ibnic0v2 provider to connect to
           hostname server1-ib0.

NAME
        dapltest - test for the Direct Access Programming Library (DAPL)

DESCRIPTION
       Dapltest  is  a  set  of tests developed to exercise, characterize, and
       verify the DAPL interfaces during development and porting. At least two
       instantiations of the test must be run. One acts as the server, fielding
       requests and spawning server-side test threads as needed. Other client(s)
       connect to the server and issue test requests. The server side of the
       test, once  invoked, listens  continuously for client connection requests
       until stopped or killed. Upon receipt of a connection request, the
       connection is established, the server and client sides swap version
       numbers to  verify that they are able to communicate, and the client
       sends the test request to the server. If the version numbers match, and
       the test request is well-formed, the server spawns  the  threads
       needed to run the test before awaiting further connections.

USAGE
       See manual.htm and or dt-svr.bat & dt-cli.bat.

EXAMPLES
       dapltest -T S -d -D ibnic0v2

           Starts a server process with debug verbosity.

       dapltest -T T -d -s host1-ib0 -D ibnic0v2 -i 100 client SR 4096 2 \
           server SR 4096 2

           Runs a transaction test, with both sides sending one buffer with
           two 4KB segments, one hundred times.

       dapltest -T P -d -s host1-ib0 -D ibnic0v2 -i 100 SR 4096 2

           Runs a performance test, with the client sending one buffer with
           two 4KB segments, one hundred times.

       dapltest -T Q -s host1-ib0 -D ibnic0v2

           Asks the server to clean up and exit.

       dapltest -T L -D ibnic0v2 -d -w 16 -m 1000

           Runs all of the limit tests, setting up 16 complete sets of DAPL
           objects, and creating at most a thousand instances when trying to
           exhaust resources.

       dapltest -T T -V -d -t 2 -w 4 -i 55555 -s linux3 -D ibnic0v2 \
           client RW 4096 1 server RW  2048  4 client SR 1024 4 server SR 4096 \
           2 client SR 1024 3 -f server SR 2048 1 -f

           Runs a more complicated transaction test, with two thread using four
           EPs each, sending a more complicated buffer pattern for a larger
           number of iterations, validating the data received.

       BUGS   (and To Do List)

           Use of CNOs (-Q) is not yet supported.

           Further limit tests could be added.
