Hello,
thanks for your immediate responses.

I guess that would be applying 0003-relax-failing-unit-test.patch
to the Bullseye version.

Ok, just wanted to offer an option.

If it might be of any help - my system is a "AMD Ryzen 7 1700",
the qemu VM runs with "-enable-kvm -cpu host -smp 16".

By locking the process to just a single cpu I do not get any failures:
   taskset -c 0 bash -c "while true; do ./test_nufft ; done"

If I allow two cpus the failure rate is at 77%:
   taskset -c 0,1 bash -c "while true; do ./test_nufft ; done"


This still does not affect a Bookworm VM, no failures even with
the relax patch removed.


Kind regards,
Bernhard
