Hi John, Changes in v3: Rebased onto latest commit 95066b1a1a0a ("cyclicdeadline.c: Fix printf format specifier") in unstable/devel/latest. This patch adds the option --mainaffinity to specify the affinity of the main pid. This is mainly useful if you want to bind the main thread to a different (e.g. housekeeping ) CPU than the measurement threads. Some numbers on potential latency benefits are linked in the v1 thread at https://lore.kernel.org/linux-rt-users/dd40b81d-7099-7740-c2ad-64b49e582234@xxxxxxxxx/ Regards Jonathan Jonathan Schwender (2): cyclictest: Move main pid setaffinity handling into a function cyclictest: Add --mainaffinity=[CPUSET] option. src/cyclictest/cyclictest.c | 28 +++++++++++++++++++--------- src/include/rt-numa.h | 2 ++ src/lib/rt-numa.c | 11 +++++++++++ 3 files changed, 32 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) -- 2.30.2
