Submit Notes

 The numactl mechanism was used to bind copies to processors. The config file option 'submit'
 was used to generate numactl commands to bind each copy to a specific processor.
 For details, please see the config file.

Operating System Notes

 Stack size set to unlimited using "ulimit -s unlimited"

Environment Variables Notes

Environment variables set by runcpu before the start of the run:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH = "/home/cpu2017/lib/intel64"

General Notes

 Binaries compiled on a system with 1x Intel Core i9-7900X CPU + 32GB RAM
 memory using Redhat Enterprise Linux 7.5
 Transparent Huge Pages enabled by default
 Prior to runcpu invocation
 Filesystem page cache synced and cleared with:
 sync; echo 3 >       /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
 runcpu command invoked through numactl i.e.:
 numactl --interleave=all runcpu <etc>

 NA: The test sponsor attests, as of date of publication, that CVE-2017-5754 (Meltdown)
 is mitigated in the system as tested and documented.

 Additional information from dmidecode follows.  WARNING: Use caution when you interpret
 this section. The 'dmidecode' program reads system data which is "intended to allow
 hardware to be accurately determined", but the intent may not be met, as there are
 frequent changes to hardware, firmware, and the "DMTF SMBIOS" standard.
