About "add option to only run stuck_address test", I think adding an option for a specific test is not a good idea. Somebody would like to run only Random Value + Bit Flip + 18-bit Writes we cannot realistically have a configuration flag for every possible combination. Even one flag per each specific test would bee too much.

Rather we should have a single way to select the desired set of tests for each execution, for example:

# Enable only selected tests
memtester -e stuck-addr,bit-flip,16bit-writes 100M 5
# Enable all tests except selected ones
memtester -d stuck-addr,bit-flip,16bit-writes 100M 5

Does it look reasonable?

The selection of test can already be performed via the environment variable MEMTESTER_TEST_MASK. This feature may not be clear in the manpage, but have a look at the source code to get it correctly.

Also remember that I do not intend to maintain memtester, because that would be a fork. If you are interested in helping on the development, please send your patches to Charles Cazabon, who is the original author of this tool.
