+SYNOPSIS
+========
+**rtla osnoise top** [*OPTIONS*]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+===========
+.. include:: common_osnoise_description.rst
+
+**rtla osnoise top** collects the periodic summary from the *osnoise* tracer,
+including the counters of the occurrence of the interference source,
+displaying the results in a user-friendly format.
+
+The tool also allows many configurations of the *osnoise* tracer and the
+collection of the tracer output.
+
+OPTIONS
+=======
+.. include:: common_osnoise_options.rst
+
+.. include:: common_top_options.rst
+
+.. include:: common_options.rst
+
+EXAMPLE
+=======
+In the example below, the **rtla osnoise top** tool is set to run with a
+real-time priority *FIFO:1*, on CPUs *0-3*, for *900ms* at each period
+(*1s* by default). The reason for reducing the runtime is to avoid starving
+the rtla tool. The tool is also set to run for *one minute* and to display
+a summary of the report at the end of the session::
+
+ [root@f34 ~]# rtla osnoise top -P F:1 -c 0-3 -r 900000 -d 1M -q
