Bug Description

Currently the full cpuidle test set will be executed, even if cpuidle is not available at the kernel, making the test cases to fail.

The first test case already checks for cpuidle availability at sysfs, so others shouldn't be executed if the first one fails. The right test result would be 'skipped' instead of 'fail' as you can't consider that the test case has failed if the support wasn't even available.

One example:
LAVA: (stdout) make[1]: Entering directory `/root/.local/share/lava_test/installed-tests/pwrmgmt/pm-qa/cpuidle'
LAVA: (stdout) cc -g -Wall -pthread cpuidle_killer.c -o cpuidle_killer
LAVA: (stdout) ###
LAVA: (stdout) ### cpuidle_01:
LAVA: (stdout) ### test the cpuidle files are present in the sysfs
LAVA: (stdout) ### https://wiki.linaro.org/WorkingGroups/PowerManagement/Doc/QA/Scripts#cpuidle_01
LAVA: (stdout) ###
LAVA: (stdout) cpuidle_01.0: checking 'current_driver' exists... fail
LAVA: (stdout) ###
LAVA: (stdout) ### cpuidle_02:
LAVA: (stdout) ### Run a cpuidle program killer
LAVA: (stdout) ### https://wiki.linaro.org/WorkingGroups/PowerManagement/Doc/QA/Scripts#cpuidle_02
LAVA: (stdout) ###
LAVA: (stdout) cpuidle_02.0: checking cpuidle program runs successfully (120 secs)... Test duration exceeded
LAVA: (stdout) fail
LAVA: (stderr) make[1]: *** [cpuidle_02.log] Error 1
LAVA: (stdout) make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/.local/share/lava_test/installed-tests/pwrmgmt/pm-qa/cpuidle'
LAVA: (stderr) make: *** [check] Error 2
LAVA: Command 'cd pm-qa && make check ' returned non-zero exit status 2

For Panda 4460 board, I get another failure:

LAVA: (stdout) cpuhotplug_07.0/cpu1: checking offline event was received... fail

Is it an expected behavior?

Is it an expected behaviour? If so, then we can consider this test passed.

Hongbo,

Would the patch you have submitted for review fix this issue?

Rajagopal,
I fixed this one:
LAVA: (stdout) cpufreq_05.4: checking 'ondemand' directory exists... fail

didn't fix others.

For Panda 4430 board, observed same behaviour as comment #2 on Linaro ubuntu pre-built image:

http://snapshots.linaro.org/precise/pre-built/lt-panda-x11-base/219/lt-panda-x11-base-precise_ubuntu-desktop_20120803-219.img.gz

LAVA: (stdout) cpuhotplug_07.0/cpu1: checking offline event was received... fail

LAVA: (stdout) cpufreq_05.4: checking 'ondemand' directory exists... fail

Looks like this is not an expected behaviour, then this bug status should be changed to "confirmed".
