The rtla(1) is a meta-tool that includes a set of commands that aims to analyze the real-time properties of Linux. But instead of testing Linux as a black box, rtla leverages kernel tracing capabilities to provide precise information about the properties and root causes of unexpected results. To start, it presents an interface to the osnoise and timerlat tracers. In the future, it will also serve as home to the rtsl [1] and other latency/noise tracers. The first five patches are a re-send of [2] that enable multiple instances for osnoise/timerlat tracers. They are required to run the -T option - to save a trace with osnoise: events for debugging. The next seven patches are rtla, rtla osnoise, and rtla timerlat, and the following patches are the man pages for the tools. To compile rtla on fedora you need: $ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/libtrace/libtraceevent.git $ cd libtraceevent/ $ make $ sudo make install $ cd .. $ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/libtrace/libtracefs.git $ cd libtracefs/ $ make $ sudo make install $ cd .. $ sudo dnf install asciidoc xmlto procps-devel $ cd $linux/tools/tracing/rtla/ $ make $ sudo make install This tool will be discussed at the RT-MC during LPC2021. RTLA stands for Real-Time Linux Analysis.
