The same way we did it here:
https://groups.google.com/d/msg/syzkaller/MHXa-o8foyc/yrGfDOrwAQAJ
This will run it in infinite loop in 10 parallel processes:
./syz-execprog -repeat=0 -procs=10 -sandbox=namespace gistfile1.txt
-sandbox=namespace will require CONFIG_USER_NS=y, I am not sure if it
is actually required, but that's how bots triggered it. You can do
-sandbox=none as well.
