At least LTP suite does not like it: while running /opt/ltp/runtest/cpuhotplug, we see things like the above
<<<test_start>>> tag=cpuhotplug02 stime=1446628761 cmdline="cpuhotplug02.sh -c 1 -l 1" contacts="" analysis=exit <<<test_output>>> Name: cpuhotplug02 Date: Wed Nov 4 09:19:21 UTC 2015 Desc: What happens to a process when its CPU is offlined?
CPU is 1 /opt/ltp/testcases/bin/cpuhotplug_hotplug.sh: line 76: echo: write error: Function not implemented cpuhotplug02 1 TBROK : CPU1 cannot be onlined <<<execution_status>>> initiation_status="ok" duration=1 termination_type=exited termination_id=2 corefile=no cutime=4 cstime=6 <<<test_end>>>
