Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 2/4] rtla/osnoise: Record IPI count in osnoise top
Date: Wed, 17 Jun 2026 15:17:57 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260617131803.2988989-3-vschneid@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260617131803.2988989-1-vschneid@redhat.com>

Leverage the ipi_send_cpu and ipi_send_cpumask trace events to record the
count of IPIs sent to monitored CPUs. These interferences are already
accounted by the IRQ count, but this split gives a better overall picture.

This uses the newly added -i cmdline option.
