2025-03-26rtla: Fix segfault in save_trace_to_file callTomas Glozar
Running rtla with exit on threshold, but without saving trace leads to a segmenetation fault: $ rtla timerlat hist -T 10 ... Max timerlat IRQ latency from idle: 4.29 us in cpu 0 Segmentation fault This is caused by null pointer deference in the call of save_trace_to_file, which attempts to dereference an uninitialized osnoise_tool variable: save_trace_to_file(record->trace.inst, params->trace_output); ^ this is uninitialized if params->trace_output is not set Fix this by not attempting to dereference "record" if it is NULL and passing NULL instead. As a safety measure, the first field is also checked for NULL inside save_trace_to_file.

2025-03-04rtla: Refactor save_trace_to_fileCosta Shulyupin
The functions osnoise_hist_main(), osnoise_top_main(), timerlat_hist_main(), and timerlat_top_main() are lengthy and contain duplicated code. Refactor by consolidating the duplicate lines into the save_trace_to_file() function. Cc: Daniel Bristot de Oliveira <bristot@kernel.org> Cc: John Kacur <jkacur@redhat.com> Cc: "Luis Claudio R.

2025-01-24rtla: Count all processed eventsTomas Glozar
Add a field processed_events to struct trace_instance and increment it in collect_registered_events, regardless of whether a handler is registered for the event. The purpose is to calculate the percentage of events that were missed due to tracefs buffer overflow.

2025-01-24rtla: Count missed trace eventsTomas Glozar
Add function collect_missed_events to trace.c to act as a callback for tracefs_follow_missed_events, summing the number of total missed events into a new field missing_events of struct trace_instance. In case record->missed_events is negative, trace->missed_events is set to UINT64_MAX to signify an unknown number of events was missed. The callback is activated on initialization of the trace instance.

2025-01-24tools/rtla: Add osnoise_trace_is_off()Costa Shulyupin
All of the users of trace_is_off() passes in &record->trace as the second parameter, where record is a pointer to a struct osnoise_tool. This record could be NULL and there is a hidden dependency that the trace field is the first field to allow &record->trace to work with a NULL record pointer. In order to make this code a bit more robust, as record shouldn't be dereferenced if it is NULL, even if the code does work, create a new function called osnoise_trace_is_off() that takes the pointer to a struct osnoise_tool as its second parameter. This way it can properly test if it is NULL before it dereferences it. The old function trace_is_off() is removed and the function osnoise_trace_is_off() is added into osnoise.c which is what the struct osnoise_tool is associated with.

2025-01-24rtla: Add trace_instance_stopTomas Glozar
Support not only turning trace on for the timerlat tracer, but also turning it off. This will be used in subsequent patches to stop the timerlat tracer without also wiping the trace buffer.

2024-05-16rtla: Add --trace-buffer-size optionDaniel Bristot de Oliveira
Add the option allow the users to set a different buffer size for the trace. For example, in large systems, the user might be interested on reducing the trace buffer to avoid large tracing files. The buffer size is specified in kB, and it is only affecting the tracing instance. The function trace_set_buffer_size() appears on libtracefs v1.6, so increase the minimum required version on Makefile.config.
