Sorry for the late reply. I now switched to linux-2.6.29.6-rt23
(which has the patch included) and verified that the problem is
solved. Reverting the patch gives the problem again.
Now the error messages have disappeared, but I really cannot
tell if the test is doing something at all.
Here's the output from running the python script from rt-tests-50:
$> hwlatdetect --debug
debugging prints turned on

The output from the hwlat_detector module is:
hwlat_detector: version 1.0.0
For me, the output "Samples recorded: 0" means that no samples have
been read at all. Or do I misinterpret the output?
It is also not possible for me to cat the sample entry
when the module is enabled: "strace cat sample"
just waits forever:
open("sample", O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = 3
fstat64(3, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0444, st_size=0, ...}) = 0
read(3,
Is there anything else I can try?
