The usefulness of having a standard way of testing syscall performance has come up from time to time[0]. Furthermore, some of our testing machinery (such as 'mmtests') already makes use of a simplified version of the microbenchmark. This patch mainly takes the same idea to measure syscall throughput compatible with 'perf-bench' via getppid(2), yet without any of the additional template stuff from Ingo's version (based on numa.c). The code is identical to what mmtests uses. [0] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20160201074156.GA27156@gmail.com/ Committer notes: Add mising stdlib.h and unistd.h to get the prototypes for exit() and getppid().
