Currently the stress test programs for floating point context switching are run by hand, there are extremely simplistic harnesses which run some copies of each test individually but they are not integrated into kselftest and with SVE and SME they only run with whatever vector length the process has by default. This is hassle when running the tests and means that they're not being run at all by CI systems picking up kselftest. In order to improve our coverage and provide a more convenient interface provide a harness program which starts enough stress test programs up to cause context switching and runs them for a set period. If only FPSIMD is available in the system we start two copies of the FPSIMD stress test per CPU, otherwise we start one copy of the FPSIMD and then start the SVE, streaming SVE and ZA tests once per CPU for each available VL they have to run on. We then run for a set period monitoring for any errors reported by the test programs before cleanly terminating them. In order to provide additional coverage of signal handling and some extra noise in the scheduling we send a SIGUSR2 to the stress tests once a second, the tests will count the number of signals they get. Since kselftest is generally expected to run quickly we by default only run for ten seconds. This is enough to show if there is anything cripplingly wrong but not exactly a thorough soak test, for interactive and more focused use a command line option -t N is provided which overrides the length of time to run for (specified in seconds) and if 0 is specified then there is no timeout and the test must be manually terminated. The timeout is counted in seconds with no output, this is done to account for the potentially slow startup time for the test programs on virtual platforms which tend to struggle during startup as they are both slow and tend to support a wide range of vector lengths.
