Daniel Bristot de Oliveira a828cd18bc rtla: Add timerlat tool and timelart top mode
The rtla timerlat tool is an interface for the timerlat tracer.
The timerlat tracer dispatches a kernel thread per-cpu. These threads set a
periodic timer to wake themselves up and go back to sleep. After the
wakeup, they collect and generate useful information for the debugging of
operating system timer latency.

The timerlat tracer outputs information in two ways. It periodically
prints the timer latency at the timer IRQ handler and the Thread handler.
It also provides information for each noise via the osnoise tracepoints.

The rtla timerlat top mode displays a summary of the periodic output from
the timerlat tracer.

Here is one example of the rtla timerlat tool output:
 ---------- %< ----------
[root@alien ~]# rtla timerlat top -c 0-3 -d 1m
                                     Timer Latency
  0 00:01:00   |          IRQ Timer Latency (us)        |         Thread Timer Latency (us)
CPU COUNT      |      cur       min       avg       max |      cur       min       avg       max
  0 #60001     |        0         0         0         3 |        1         1         1         6
  1 #60001     |        0         0         0         3 |        2         1         1         5
  2 #60001     |        0         0         1         6 |        1         1         2         7
  3 #60001     |        0         0         0         7 |        1         1         1        11

Running:
  # rtla timerlat --help
  # rtla timerlat top --help
provides information about the available options.
