The **rtla osnoise** tool is an interface for the *osnoise* tracer. The
2+
*osnoise* tracer dispatches a kernel thread per-cpu. These threads read the
3+
time in a loop while with preemption, softirq and IRQs enabled, thus
4+
allowing all the sources of operating systme noise during its execution.
5+
The *osnoise*'s tracer threads take note of the delta between each time
6+
read, along with an interference counter of all sources of interference.
7+
At the end of each period, the *osnoise* tracer displays a summary of
8+
the results.

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

===========

17+
.. include:: common_osnoise_description.rst
18+
19+
The *osnoise* tracer outputs information in two ways. It periodically prints
20+
a summary of the noise of the operating system, including the counters of
21+
the occurrence of the source of interference. It also provides information
22+
for each noise via the **osnoise:** tracepoints. The **rtla osnoise top**
23+
mode displays information about the periodic summary from the *osnoise* tracer.
24+
The **rtla osnoise hist** mode displays information about the noise using
25+
the **osnoise:** tracepoints. For further details, please refer to the
26+
respective man page.
27+
28+
MODES
29+
=====
30+
**top**
31+
32+
Prints the summary from osnoise tracer.
33+
34+
**hist**
35+
36+
Prints a histogram of osnoise samples.
37+
38+
If no MODE is given, the top mode is called, passing the arguments.
39+
40+
OPTIONS
41+
=======
42+
43+
