Question: does stress-ng check results for errors? #468

For example with the memory tests: does it check that values are stored correctly by reading them back and comparing? Or does it simply do as much reading and writing as possible without checking? |

With the --verify option most stressors perform verification (some don't due to the nature of the testing), so for memory tests data vales are stored and read back and compared in different ways. One can see the stressors that have verification by using: stress-ng --verifiable Hope that helps. |
