20*4882a593Smuzhiyun        Re-distribution is permitted as long as the copyright is
21*4882a593Smuzhiyun    maintained and the source code is not changed. I do not
22*4882a593Smuzhiyun    see a problem with your mods to enable fileop for Linux-arm,
23*4882a593Smuzhiyun    as these mods have been returned to the Iozone folks,
24*4882a593Smuzhiyun    and they have been accepted for inclusion in the next
25*4882a593Smuzhiyun    release :-)

40*4882a593Smuzhiyun> I want to include iozone3 in OpenEmbedded [1] metadata to give it for
