This doesn't work for me on a P8 guest:

  test: perf-hwbreak
  tags: git_version:bb5602e
  !! killing perf-hwbreak
  !! child died by signal 15
  failure: perf-hwbreak


That means the harness killed it after 2 minutes.

Sometimes it gets further:

  test: perf-hwbreak
  tags: git_version:v4.17-rc3-109-gbb20240fb508
  threads=16 loops=1048576 scalar test
  !! killing perf-hwbreak
  !! child died by signal 15
  failure: perf-hwbreak


Do we just need to bump the timeout up, or is something going wrong
here?

cheers
