6.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Tomas Glozar <tglozar@xxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit fcbc60d7dc4b125c8de130aa1512e5d20726c06e ]
Since commit fb9e90a67ee9 ("rtla/timerlat: Make user-space threads
the default"), rtla-timerlat has been defaulting to
params->user_workload if neither that or params->kernel_workload is set.
This has unintentionally made -U, which sets only params->user_hist/top
but not params->user_workload, to behave like -u unless -k is set,
preventing the user from running a custom workload.
Example:
$ rtla timerlat hist -U -c 0 &
[1] 7413
$ python sample/timerlat_load.py 0
Error opening timerlat fd, did you run timerlat -U?
$ ps | grep timerlatu
7415 pts/4 00:00:00 timerlatu/0
Fix the issue by checking for params->user_top/hist instead of
params->user_workload when setting default thread mode.
