The test scripts can be found here:

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/wfg/lkp-tests.git/tree/setup/disk
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/wfg/lkp-tests.git/tree/setup/fs
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/wfg/lkp-tests.git/tree/tests/aim7

Here are the real commands they executed in this test:

modprobe -r brd
modprobe brd rd_nr=1 rd_size=50331648 part_show=1

dmsetup remove_all
wipefs -a --force /dev/ram0

mkfs -t xfs /dev/ram0
mkdir -p /fs/ram0
mount -t xfs -o nobarrier,inode64 /dev/ram0 /fs/ram0

for file in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor
do
        echo performance > $file
done

echo "500 32000 128 512" > /proc/sys/kernel/sem

cat > workfile <<EOF
FILESIZE: 1M
POOLSIZE: 10M
10 disk_wrt
EOF

echo "/fs/ram0" > config

(
        echo ivb44
        echo disk_wrt

        echo 1
        echo 3000
        echo 2
        echo 3000
        echo 1
) | ./multitask -t

Thanks,
