Subject: [PATCH 3/3] rt-tests: cyclictest: Add --default-system option
Date: Fri, 1 Oct 2021 13:29:37 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211001172937.13060-3-jkacur@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20211001172937.13060-1-jkacur@redhat.com>
This patch add the long option --default-system
--default-system runs cyclictest without attempting any tuning.
Power management is not suppressed so cyclictest measures the system as
it is configured.
This is effectively the same as --laptop, but makes it clear to the user
what is done and why.
