This bug was fixed in the package stress-ng - 0.09.57-0ubuntu5

---------------
stress-ng (0.09.57-0ubuntu5) disco; urgency=medium

  * Fix --timer-slack from consuming the following arg (LP: #1853832)
    Currently the timer slack option eats the next argument, causing
    missing argument parsing behaviour on the command line.
  * Fix mwc8() being reset when using mwc1() (LP: #1855851)
    Fic Psuedo-random 8 bit numbers from mwc8() accidentally
    being zero'd when mwc1() is called.

Title:
  stress-ng --timer-slack option should be a zero arg option, it
  currently skips over the next arg

Bug description:
  == SRU [Bionic][Disco][Eoan] ==

  stress-ng --timer 1 --timer-freq 100000 --timer-slack -t 1 runs for a
  whole day and not 1 second. The timer-slack option eats the -t1 arg
  because it is defined as having an arg when in fact it is a zero arg
  option.

  == Fix ==

  Upstream fix (in Focal):

  commit e044133ed6ebdbac16775d8ae0d130bc2dac96ea
  Author: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
  Date:   Mon Nov 25 12:05:30 2019 +0000

      Fix --timer-slack from consuming the following arg (LP: #1853832)

  == Test ==

  stress-ng --timer 1 --timer-freq 100000 --timer-slack -t 1

  Without the fix, this will run by default for 24 hours.  With the fix
  the -t option is parsed and it will run for 1 second as intended.

  == Regression Potential ==

  This is a one line arg parsing change so change set is really limited
  to this one --timer-slack option.  Users may find the behaviour now
  changes because it no longer consumes the next arg and hence the next
  arg works and hence changes functionality.
