Subject: [LTP] [PATCH] controllers/cpuacct_task: Increase execution time to 100ms
Date: Mon, 10 Aug 2026 03:39:21 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260810033921.1694744-1-wakel@google.com> (raw)

The test helper cpuacct_task currently runs for 10ms (virtual time)
before exiting. On some systems (e.g. fast virtual machines or under
heavy load), this short duration can lead to 0 usage being recorded in
cpuacct.usage cgroup file due to timing resolution or scheduling delay.

Increase the execution time to 100ms to ensure that the process runs
long enough to register a non-zero CPU usage, reducing flakiness of the
test.
