• openpty
• forkpty
• login_tty
• getopt_long
• getopt_long_only
• mkdtemp
• backtrace
• backtrace_symbols

• iperfstat_memory_get_main_storage_size
• iperfstat_cpu_get_number

Building

    make
    make install

The Makefile supports PREFIX and DESTDIR variables. The default prefix is /usr/local. To install to a different prefix specify it like so:
