Description
To make it easier to test and verify the code for detecting and handling sensor failures, there should be a way to spoof the state for any sensor in topo. The most practical way to implement this would be to add support for an optional configuration parameter in sensor-transport.conf where one could specify one or more sensors and the state value(s) that sensor-transport should pretend to have read from them.
Note that this change has already been integrated into illumos-joyent via the commit below:

Testing¶
I created a platform image with this change and then exercised the change by loopback mounting various versions of sensor-transport.conf to verify that the new "spoof_sensor_state" could be parsed correctly and that the intended effect was achieved.
scenario 1 - spoof the state for a single sensor:
# mount -F lofs /var/tmp/sensor-transport.conf /usr/lib/fm/fmd/plugins/sensor-transport.conf
# cat /usr/lib/fm/fmd/plugins/sensor-transport.conf
setprop spoof_sensor_state "*psu=1:PS2 Status:0x2"
# fmadm reset sensor-transport
fmadm: sensor-transport module has been reset
[wait at least 60 seconds...]
# fmadm faulty

I also verified that if the value of spoof_sensor_state is malformed, then an ereport is generated and a defect is diagnosed against the fmd module.
