The OpenPOWER ISA Compliance Definition defines the test suite requirements to demonstrate OpenPOWER ISA Profile compliance for POWER systems.
|
|
|
|
|
The purpose of the OpenPOWER ISA Profile Compliance Test Harness and Test Suite (TH/TS) Specification,
|
|
|
|
|
is to provide the test suite requirements to be able to demonstrate OpenPOWER ISA Profile compliance for POWER based systems.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The input to this specification is the IBM POWER ISA, implementation of all of the ISA is required, there are no optional sections.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The testing of a processor implementation’s compliance against the Power ISA – OpenPOWER Profile ensures
|
|
|
|
|
that software shown to execute properly on one compliant processor implementation will execute properly on
|
|
|
|
|
a different also compliant processor implementation.
|
|
|
|
|
The testing is not intended to show that the processor implementation under test is robust
|
|
|
|
|
under all possible operating conditions, inputs, or event time interactions.
|
|
|
|
|
It is intend to show that the processor implementation under test implemented the ISA
|
|
|
|
|
as specified and the ISA specification was interpreted by the processor developers as intended by the ISA specification author.
