TED: Test Environment for DAPL Files

INTRODUCTION
-------------------------

Test Environment for DAPL (TED) is a utility that provides a simplified
environment to enable protocol level testing and debugging of the user
Direct  Access  Programming  Library  (uDAPL), device  driver  and  the
underlying Host Channel Adapter(HCA) wherein a uDAPL API can be executed
by typing a  command  at the shell prompt. Parameters of the APIs can be
specified at the command line. Scripts can be written to perform a set of
uDAPL tasks. The tool can be used to execute load tests on cluster of nodes.
