Left most of the patch content in place so that they can follow it even
if they weren't CC'ed.

I do not think it is. If you run a kernel with, say,
CONFIG_LOCK_TORTURE_TEST, cpus may disappear from the radar while
running the PSCI checker test itself; that at least would confuse the
checker, and that's just an example.

I added Paul to check what are the assumptions behind the torture test
hotplug tests, in particular if there are any implicit assumptions for
it to work (ie it is the only kernel test hotplugging cpus in and out
(?)), what I know is that the PSCI checker assumptions are not correct.

There is something simple you can do to get this "fixed".

You can use the new API James implemented for hibernate,
that allows you to disable (ie PSCI CPU OFF) all "secondary" cpus
other than the primary one passed in as parameter:

freeze_secondary_cpus(int primary);

that function will _cpu_down() all online cpus other than "primary"
in one go, without any interference allowed from other bits of the
kernel. It requires an enable_nonboot_cpus() counterpart, and you
can do that for every online cpus you detect (actually you can even
avoid using the online cpu mask and use the present mask to carry
out the test). If there is a resident trusted OS you can just
trigger the test with primary == tos_resident_cpu, since all
others are bound to fail (well, you can run them and check they
do fail, it is a checker after all).

You would lose the capability of hotplugging a "cluster" at a time, but
I do not think it is a big problem, the test above would cover it
and more importantly, it is safe to execute.

Or we can augment the torture test API to restrict the cpumask
it actually uses to offline/online cpus (I am referring to
torture_onoff(), kernel/torture.c).

Further comments appreciated since I am not sure I grokked the
assumption the torture tests make about hotplugging cpus in and out,
I will go through the commits logs again to find more info.

Thanks !
