Memtester是用户态工具,用于测试内存子系统的故障。非常方便,支持32位 或64位Unix-like系统。对于硬件开发开发者来说,memtester可以定位到物理地址。

1. 安装

下载地址http://pyropus.ca/software/memtester/

获取memtester-4.2.2.tar.gz源码包。

#tar –zxvf memtester-4.2.2.tar.gz

#make

#make install

2.测试

./memtester [-p physaddrbase] <mem>[B|K|M|G] [loops]

其中:

Physaddrbase: 需要测试的物理地址;

<mem>[B|K|M|G]:测试内存的大小;

[loops]:测试次数

案例:

[root@RedHat memtester-4.2.2]# ./memtester -p 0x0a0000 4k 1
