perf test: Add 'sqrtloop' test workload
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.
