       signaltest - signal roundtrip test software

       These  programs  follow  the  usual  GNU  command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes
       ('--').

       -a,--affinity[=PROC-SET]
              Run threads on the set of processors given  by  PROC-SET.   If  PROC-SET  is  not  specified,  all
              processors will be used.  Threads will be assigned to processors in the set in numeric order, in a
              round-robin fashion.
              The  set of processors can be specified as A,B,C, or A-C, or A-B,D-F, and so on*.  The ! character
              can be used to negate a set.  For example, !B-D means to use all available CPUs except  B  through
              D.   The  cpu  numbers are the same as shown in the processor field in /proc/cpuinfo.  See numa(3)
              for more information on specifying CPU sets.  * Support for CPU sets requires libnuma  version  >=
              2.  For libnuma v1, PROC-SET, if specified, must be a single CPU number.

       -b,--breaktrace=USEC
              Send break trace command when latency > USEC

       -D,--duration=TIME
              Specify a length for the test run.
              Append 'm', 'h', or 'd' to specify minutes, hours or days.

       --help
              display usage information

       --json=FILENAME
              Write final results into FILENAME, JSON formatted.

       -l,--loops=LOOPS
              Number of loops: default=0 (endless)

       -p,--priority=PRIO
              Priority of highest priority thread

       -q,--quiet
              print a summary only on exit

       -S,--smp
              Set  options for standard testing on SMP systems. Equivalent to using the options: "-t -a" as well
              keeping any specified priority equal across all threads

       -t,--threads=NUM
              number of threads: default=2

       -m,--mlockall
              lock current and future memory allocations

       -v,--verbose
              output values on stdout for statistics
              format: n:c:v n=tasknum c=count v=value in us
