From f69705f300f487936919359354925395105ec018 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Huth Date: Tue, 7 Jan 2025 12:52:45 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] tests/functional/test_x86_64_hotplug_cpu: Fix race condition during unplug When unplugging the CPU, the test tries to check for a successful unplug by changing to the /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1 directory to see whether that fails. However, the "cd" could be faster than the unplug operation in the kernel, so there is a race condition and the test sometimes fails here. Fix it by trying to change the directory in a loop until the the CPU has really been unplugged. While we're at it, also add a "cd .." before unplugging to make the console output a little bit less confusing (since the path is echoed in the shell prompt).
