Subject: [PATCH 1/2] perf test lock_contention.sh: Skip test if the number of CPUs is low
Date: Mon, 21 Aug 2023 11:00:52 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230821090053.8807-1-vmolnaro@redhat.com> (raw)

From: notValord <v.m.veverka@gmail.com>

Machines with less then 4 CPUs weren't consistently triggering lock
events required for the test.

Skip the test on those machines. The limit of 4 CPUs is set as it
generates around 100 lock events for a test.
