To test standalone MTCP, just do:
  make clean check
This is the quivalent of:
  LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. ./testmtcp
  [ type some stuff, and wait long enough until it checkpoints. ]
  ./mtcp_restart testmtcp.mtcp
  [ type some more and verify that it still worked ]

Ok, so here is a tar of my directory.  I was running the testmtcp program=
:

[ Addition of LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.  by Gene ]
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. ./testmtcp
or for csh/tcsh:
env LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. ./testmtcp

--- you type in a couple lines and it echoes them back.  Then wait 10secs
or so and it prints out a bunch of debug stuff as it writes the checkpoin=
t
file.

Then press control-C to abort the program.  You should have a
testmtcp.mtcp file that contains the checkpoint data.

Then do this command:

./mtcp_restart testmtcp.mtcp

... it should read the file in, restore it to memory, then Segment fault.

So there it is.  Anyway, if you have questions, send email or ask in
class.  If I know ahead of time, we can arrange to meet ahead of class
sometime.  Staying late is difficult because my train leaves North Statio=
n
at 930pm and the next one isn't until 1040pm.

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

This version implements mtcp_sy_*  in mtcp_sy.h
The functions mtcp_sy_* expand directly to 'int $0x80' calls, based
  on the code in /usr/include/asm/unistd.h

In addition, in mtcp_internal.h, I added:
#ifndef _LINUX_LDT_H
# include <asm/ldt.h>
#endif
to replace the definition of 'struct user_desc'.  That definition was
copied from a system include file, but its exact definition continually
changed according to the kernel version, etc.
