Subject: [PATCH 3/9] rtla/tests: Check -c/--cpus thread affinity
Date: Thu, 23 Apr 2026 15:05:52 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260423130558.882022-4-tglozar@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260423130558.882022-1-tglozar@redhat.com>
RTLA runtime tests verify the -c/--cpus options, but do not check
whether the correct affinity is actually applied.
Add a script named check-cpus.sh that retrieves the affinity of all
workload threads and use it to check the -c/--cpus option for both
osnoise and timerlat tools.
Also add missing -c/--cpus test for osnoise.
