[LTP] [PATCH 1/1] utils: Remove kernbench-0.42

Quote homepage [1]:
kernbench is a CPU throughput benchmark. It is designed to compare
kernels on the same machine, or to compare hardware. It runs a kernel
compile at various numbers of concurrent jobs: 1/2 number of CPUs,
optimal (default is 4xnumber of CPUs), and maximal job count. Optionally
it can also run single threaded. It then prints out a number of useful
statistics for the average of each group of runs.
Implementation: simple shell script.
Reasons:
1) We don't use this benchmark tool.
2) It's an outdated version. Latest version 0.50 (released 2009) is
available from SF [1] and from the author website [2].

-Kernbench v0.42
-
-
-What is this?
-
-This is a cpu throughput benchmark originally devised and used by Martin J.
-Bligh. It is designed to compare kernels on the same machine, or to compare
-hardware. To compare hardware you need to be running the same architecture
-machines (eg i386), the same userspace binaries and run kernbench on the same
-kernel source tree.
-
-It runs a kernel at various numbers of concurrent jobs: 1/2 number of cpus,
-optimal (default is 4xnumber of cpus) and maximal job count. Optionally it can
-also run single threaded. It then prints out a number of useful statistics
-for the average of each group of runs and logs them to kernbench.log
-
-You need more than 2Gb of ram for this to be a true throughput benchmark or
-else you will get swapstorms.
-
-Ideally it should be run in single user mode on a non-journalled filesystem.
-To compare results it should always be run in the same kernel tree.
-
-
-How do I use it?
-
-You need a kernel tree (any 2.6 will do) and the applications 'time', 'awk',
-'date' and 'yes' installed. 'time' is different to the builtin time used by
-BASH and has more information desired for this benchmark.
-
-Simply cd into the kernel tree directory and type
-
-/path/to/kernbench
-
-
-Options
-
-kernbench [-n runs] [-o jobs] [-s] [-H] [-O] [-M] [-h] [-v]
-n : number of times to perform benchmark (default 5)
-o : number of jobs for optimal run (default 4 * cpu)
-s : perform single threaded runs (default don't)
-H : don't perform half load runs (default do)
-O : don't perform optimal load runs (default do)
-M : don't perform maximal load runs (default do)
-f : fast run
-h : print this help
-v : print version number
-
-
-Changelog:
-v0.42 Fixed incorrect counting of cpus (thanks Flynn Marquardt)
- Changed -j to at least 4GB ram.
-
-v0.41 Fixed make oldconfig
-
-v0.40 Made all runs use the oldconfig if it exists. Changed to only do one
- warmup run before all the benchmarks. Added logging to kernbench.log
- Cleaned up the code substantially to reuse code where possible.
- Added standard deviation statistics courtesy of Peter Williams
-
-v0.30 Added fast run option which bypasses caching, warmup and tree
- preparation and drops number of runs to 3. Modified half loads to
- detect -j2 and change to -j3. Added syncs. Improved warnings and
- messages.
-
-v0.20 Change to average of runs, add options to choose which runs to perform
- remove single threaded run from defaults, do warmup run, lots more
- sanity checks, drop meaningless runs, add a few warnings, remove fudge
- factor from no. of jobs.
-
-v0.11 First public release
-
-
-Thanks: M. Bligh for ideas. Others for help with magic incantations to get
- BASH to work.
