Initial implementation assumed a single IFS test image file with a
fixed name ff-mm-ss.scan. (where ff, mm, ss refers to family, model and
stepping of the core).
Subsequently, it became evident that supporting more than one test
image file is needed to provide more comprehensive test coverage. (Test
coverage in this scenario refers to testing more transistors in the core
to identify faults).
The other alternative of increasing the size of a single scan test image
file would not work as the upper bound is limited by the size of memory
area reserved by BIOS for loading IFS test image.
Introduce "current_batch" file which accepts a number. Writing a
number to the current_batch file would load the test image file by
name ff-mm-ss-<xy>.scan, where <xy> is the number written to the
"current_batch" file in hex. Range check of the input is done to verify
it not greater than 0xff.
For e.g if the scan test image comprises of 6 files, they would be named:
06-8f-06-01.scan
06-8f-06-02.scan
06-8f-06-03.scan
06-8f-06-04.scan
06-8f-06-05.scan
06-8f-06-06.scan
And writing 3 to current_batch would result in loading 06-8f-06-03.scan
above. The file can also be read to know the currently loaded file.
And testing a system looks like:
for each scan file
do
load the IFS test image file (write to the batch file)
for each core
do
test the core with this set of tests
done
done
Qualify few error messages with the test image file suffix to provide
better context.

In a core, the scan engine is shared between sibling cpus.
When a Scan test (for a particular core) is triggered by the user,
the scan chunks are executed on all the threads on the core using
stop_core_cpuslocked.
Scan may be aborted by some reasons. Scan test will be aborted in certain
circumstances such as when interrupt occurred or cpu does not have enough
power budget for scan. In this case, the kernel restart scan from the chunk
where it stopped. Scan will also be aborted when the test is failed. In
this case, the test is immediately stopped without retry.
