So this would make it behave in the same way. > Good enough? It makes sense to make all binaries in rt-tests behave similarly, so regarding "oslat -v" even if it's not my preference, it's fine to me. Again - Would you consider also dump the version in the output as before even for a normal run? -- Peter Xu
