This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled perf test: Add 'sqrtloop' test workload to the 6.1-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: perf-test-add-sqrtloop-test-workload.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.1 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit c02b308dcf7af8fe53112ab20657f556e8e5e01a Author: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Nov 16 15:38:49 2022 -0800 perf test: Add 'sqrtloop' test workload [ Upstream commit 39281709a6e2301ac4c6ac7015c7793392ca2dfe ] The sqrtloop creates a child process to run an infinite loop calling sqrt() with rand(). This is needed for ARM SPE fork test. $ perf test -w sqrtloop It can take an optional argument to specify how long it will run in seconds (default: 1). Committer notes: Explicitely ignored the sqrt() return to fix the build on systems where the compiler complains it isn't being used. And added a sqrtloop specific CFLAGS to disable optimizations to make this a bit more robust wrt dead code elimination. Doing that a -U_FORTIFY_SOURCE needs to be added, as -O0 is incompatible with it.
