@Brendan the reason why it fails on machines with 10 or more CPUs is because one is grep'ing for cpu1 which matches on CPU10, CPU11, CPU12, CPU13, CPU14, CPU15 on the 16 CPU machine. So the script is broken. It looks like /proc/interrupts CPU* headed columns end with trailing spaces, so we could

@Colin, Yes, I had this same thought yesterday. To make the grep do what it's supposed to do I can just use the '-w' option, meaning it will only match on word boundaries, so CPU1 won't match CPU11. Along with the robustness enhancements suggested, I'll be making these changes and resubmitting.

So this bug isn't a kernel issue at all. the culprit is the following script: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~checkbox- dev/checkbox/trunk/view/head:/scripts/cpu_offlining This offlines CPU1, and then tries to grep for cpu1 in /proc/interrupts for some reason that completely escapes me at the

Just to say, this is one of those issues where bailing out of a situation early without restoring the state gets us in one big hole. The script offlines a CPU, then bails out. When detecting any error condition, code should try to restore back to the proper pre-test state where possible, e.g.

Back to comment #1, offlining and already offlined CPU is giving you an invalid argument error. Likewise, onlining and already onlined CPU will do the same. The semantics of the interface may have changed between releases, but I don't think we should class this as a bug since these interfaces do

My intuition is telling me once we have the script fixed it won't be offlining CPU1 and bailing out and hence we won't see this problem. Lets get the script sorted out and then re-test. Incidentally, the semantics of the /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/online are such that offlining an already

I'll fix up the script so that it: a.) Avoids offlining CPUs which already are (and vice versa) b.) Doesn't bail out and leave things in an indeterminate state I *still* don't understand how this wouldn't impact any system though, and this bug is only being seen on some. ** Changed in: linux

Just for the record, I think the test script needs some more bullet- proofing. 1. The echos to /sys/devices/system/cpu/$cpu_num/online should be followed by checks afterwards to make sure EINVAL errors aren't returned by the kernel. Just a simple bit of sanity checking can't harm. 2. It is

So, if I reboot the system then all the CPUs are online again. Furthermore if I rerun cpu_frequency_governors then CPU1 has not gone offline (all of this with the 3.2.0-12.21 kernel) after it finishes. This makes it difficult to determine if the problem is really gone in the mainline kernel. I
