crash
-----
crash01
A signal handler is set up so that in most cases the machine exception
generated by the illegal instructions, bad operands, etc in the procedure
made up of random data are caught; and another round of randomness may
be tried. Eventually a random instruction may corrupt the program or
the machine state in such a way that the program must halt. This is
a test of the robustness of the hardware/software for instruction
fault handling.
Note: Running this program just a few times, using total CPU time of
less than a few seconds SHOULD NOT GIVE YOU ANY CONFIDENCE in system
robustness. Having it run for hours, with tens of thousands of cases
would be a different thing. It would also make sense to run this
stress test at the same time you run other tests, like a multi-user
benchmark.

A signal handler is set up so that in most cases the machine exception
generated by the illegal syscall, bad operands, etc in the procedure
made up of random data are caught; and another round of randomness may

CAUTION: running this program may crash your system, your disk and all
your data along! DO NOT RUN IT ON PRODUCTION SYSTEMS!
CONSIDER YOUR DISK FRIED.
REMEMBER THE DISCLAIMER PART OF THE LICENSE.
Running as user nobody and with all your filesystems
remounted to readonly may be wise..
f00f
----
f00f
This is a simple test for handling of the pentium f00f bug.
It is an example of a catistrophic test case. If the system
doesn't correctly handle this test, it will likely lockup.
math
----
abs
Test the basic functionality of the abs() system call.
atof
Test the basic functionality of the atof() system call.
float
Increase CPUs workload - verify that results of some math functions are stable
Floating testcases are related to :
----------------------------------
- trigonometric (acos, asin, atan, atan2, cos, sin, tan),
- Euclidean distance function (hypot),
- Computes the natural logarithm of the gamma function (lgamma),
- Functions that manipulate floating-point numbers (modf, ldexp, frexp),
- exponential and logarithmic functions (exp, log, log10),
- hyperbolic (cosh, sinh, tanh),
- Bessel (j0, j1, y0, y1),
- and power functions (ceil, fabs, floor, fmod, pow, sqrt).
The testcase is splitted into 5 sets:
-------------------------------------
float_bessel, float_exp_log, float_iperb, float_power, float_trigo
fptests
Additional floating point tests.
nextafter
Test basic functionality of nextafter() system call.
tcore_patch_test_suites
-----------------------
Test suite for multi-thread core dump kernel patch.
