ispy and mtest

Phil Pemberton https://www.philpem.me.uk/ has done all the heavy lifting, found all the sources including even ftest, the at-probe functional test suite, and put them all into a github archive so it can be built from source with modern drivers!

Many thanks, Phil!

older copies and documentation can be found here

github and also on Geekdot pages

What are they ?

ispy scouts out a transputer network of the T4/T8/T2/C004 family, and reports back processor type, boot link and speed, and connection diagram.

It can also program the C004s in the network, and compare the current network to a reference.

mtest uses this information to run memory tests, and memory speed tests, on all processors.

These versions are by and large the same as before, just bugs fixed, credits added, diagnostic mode improved ( -i option). I also removed the .cfb reading code.

The original versions of ispy, mtest and ftest live on Hensa that Dave Beckett admirably maintains.
