Currently, the -r/--repeat option accepts values from 0 and complains for -1. The help section specifies: -r, --repeat <n> repeat the workload replay N times (-1: infinite) The -r -1 option raises an error because replay_repeat is defined as an unsigned int. In the current implementation, the workload is repeated n times when -r <n> is used, except when n is 0. When -r is set to 0, the workload is also repeated once. This happens because when -r=0, the run_one_test function is not called. (Note that mutex unlocking, which is essential for child threads spawned to emulate the workload, happens in run_one_test.) However, mutex unlocking is still performed in the destroy_tasks function. Thus, -r=0 results in the workload running once coincidentally. To clarify and maintain the existing logic for -r >= 1 (which runs the workload the specified number of times) and to fix the issue with infinite runs, make -r=0 perform an infinite run.
