In the routine test_stop_store_status(), the "running" part of the test checks a few of the fields in lowcore (to verify the "STORE STATUS" part of the SIGP order), and then ensures that the CPU has stopped. But this is backwards, and leads to false errors. According to the Principles of Operation: The addressed CPU performs the stop function, fol- lowed by the store-status operation (see “Store Sta- tus” on page 4-82). By checking the results how they are today, the contents of the lowcore fields are unreliable until the CPU is stopped. Thus, check that the CPU is stopped first, before ensuring that the STORE STATUS was performed correctly. While here, add the same check to the second part of the test, even though the CPU is explicitly stopped prior to the SIGP.
