Pull rtla fixes from Daniel Bristot de Oliveira:
"rtla (Real-Time Linux Analysis) tool fixes.
Timerlat auto-analysis:
- Timerlat is reporting thread interference time without thread noise
events occurrence. It was caused because the thread interference
variable was not reset after the analysis of a timerlat activation
that did not hit the threshold.
- The IRQ handler delay is estimated from the delta of the IRQ
latency reported by timerlat, and the timestamp from IRQ handler
start event. If the delta is near-zero, the drift from the external
clock and the trace event and/or the overhead can cause the value
to be negative. If the value is negative, print a zero-delay.
- IRQ handlers happening after the timerlat thread event but before
the stop tracing were being reported as IRQ that happened before
the *current* IRQ occurrence. Ignore Previous IRQ noise in this
condition because they are valid only for the *next* timerlat
activation.
Timerlat user-space:
- Timerlat is stopping all user-space thread if a CPU becomes
offline. Do not stop the entire tool if a CPU is/become offline,
but only the thread of the unavailable CPU. Stop the tool only, if
all threads leave because the CPUs become/are offline.
man-pages:
- Fix command line example in timerlat hist man page"
