The following package has been uploaded to the Cygwin distribution:
* stress-ng-0.21.04-1
The stress-ng tool can stress various subsystems of a computer. It can
stress load CPU, cache, disk, memory, socket and pipe I/O, scheduling
and much more. It is a re-write of the original 'stress' tool but has
many additional features and considerably more stress mechanisms.

Cygwin specific fixes:
--rofs: fixed segfault which occurred because _SC_PAGESIZE returns 64Ki
instead of 4Ki.
--sigsegv: accept 'siginfo_t.si_addr == (void*)-1'.
--timermix: accept EINVAL from setitimer().
The source package supports reproducible builds.
