It's an i915 test (so expects i915 running and root access to your
machine, with the intent of breaking your machine), but the cpu
hotplugging could be extracted
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/igt-gpu-tools/-/blob/master/tests/perf_pmu.c#L1153
since it's basically doing:
i = 0
while :; do
test -e /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$i/online || break
echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$i/online
sleep .1
echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$i/online
i = $[[ $i + 1 ]]
done
dmesg
Possibly running that under perf stat to keep perf_event_open, or
something else that hooks up the perf cpu hotplug callbacks.
Hope that helps,
-Chris
