GenBoard/UnderDevelopment/FirmWareTesting

CVS-head firmware now, at 2004-09-18 is experimental, as you see on GenBoard/UnderDevelopment/FirmwareChanges there is a pending development

After some cleanup in dispatcher I had perfect results with ign + inj + WBO2 + stimout at the same time. Many will try the CVS head in production. Anyone overcautios, will probably wait a little before applying in an engine.

We had 2 issues during refactoring:

Here's my testing:

Latest testing - I let it run for ~60 minutes. Here's the Benchstats output. Looks good from first glance! :)

Changing config.divider doesn't change the ouput anymore (tested up to 0x15), except the frequency of events of course. Looks great! Great work mcell and mik!

Generic advice for measurements

If you see any strange behaviour,

Always check benchstats.unknownevent, eg. sg. like this is suspicious:

BA=0000 BB=F100 (interestingly: even right after powerup ??? Fortunately it ain't change after that.) coming from dispatcher.c:\nÿ1ÿ


Formal Testing

This is an important topic, well deserves a page of it's own: OnlineCourse/OffEngineTesting/Regression.
