Public bug reported:
I'm requesting a Feature Freeze Exception for the latest stress-ng as it
includes a few more kernel stress tests that are useful for kernel
regression testing. As I am the upstream developer of stress-ng, this
has been built on various architectures in Debian as well as tested on
Ubuntu Xenial.
This is a leaf package in universe and should be a very low risk update.
The 0.05.20 and 0.05.21 changes include:
Add test-cap.c to Makefile dist rule
debian: tests: don't run remap stressor
stress-ng: add klog (syslog) stressor
syscalls: add remap_file_pages
Add page remapping stressor
stress-pthread: Add get_robust_list call
stress-sysinfo: exercise fstatfs()
Move wcs options to correct postion in manual
Add the sync-file stressor
Add fp-error stressor
syscalls.txt: update some missing syscalls and some re-ordering
Add sys/capability.h and capget build time checks
stress-get: add prlimit
Update syscalls.txt with capget stressor
Add capabilities stressor
stress-getdent: fix build warnings on systems with no getdents syscalls
Manual: update date
Debian/changelog: fix spelling mistake
stress-udp: fix two warnings on uninitialised addr
stress-socket-fd: fix two scan-build warnings
stress-getdent: init ret to -ENOSYS, fix scan-build warning
Use the generic signal handler helpers
helper: add generic signal handling/restoring helper functions
stress-oom-pipe: use stress_get_file_limit
stress-open: use stress_get_file_limit
stress-dup: use stress_get_file_limit
stress-socket-fd: use stress_get_file_limit
helper: add stress_get_file_limit to get max open files allowed
Add sockfd stressor
Add getdent stressor
stress-filename: use strncpy rather than strcpy
stress-qsort: use calloc
stress-cpu: zeta method should be counting in integers
stress-mergesort: use calloc
stress-heapsort: use calloc
stress-bsearch: use calloc
madvice: don't use MADV_FREE
I have statically analysed the code using cppcheck and CoverityScan as
well as building it with gcc 5, gcc 6 and clang with -Wall, -Wextra with
no build warnings, so I am confident the code is in good shape. It
passes all the adt regression tests on x86 i386 and amd64, arm64 and
builds and runs fine on Debian kFreeBSD and GNU/HURD as well as *BSD.
Again I am confident that it will build cleanly on a range of systems.
