Peter Zijlstra 1db49484f2 smp/hotplug: Hotplug state fail injection
Add a sysfs file to one-time fail a specific state. This can be used
to test the state rollback code paths.

Something like this (hotplug-up.sh):

  #!/bin/bash

  echo 0 > /debug/sched_debug
  echo 1 > /debug/tracing/events/cpuhp/enable

  ALL_STATES=`cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/hotplug/states | cut -d':' -f1`
  STATES=${1:-$ALL_STATES}

  for state in $STATES
  do
	  echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
	  echo 0 > /debug/tracing/trace
	  echo Fail state: $state
	  echo $state > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/hotplug/fail
	  cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/hotplug/fail
	  echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online

	  cat /debug/tracing/trace > hotfail-${state}.trace

	  sleep 1
  done

Can be used to test for all possible rollback (barring multi-instance)
scenarios on CPU-up, CPU-down is a trivial modification of the above.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
